re: How would you feel if Brian Kelly was your coach?

That's great and all, the problem is you had the exact same record WITH all of those players. Hence, the Brian Kelly patented ceiling.

Did you not read about the defense? Yes, we had 3 DL go to the draft... we also didn't have a DL coach. Lost just before the season started to crazy 1 in a million health issue. And it turned out the rest of the staff couldn't pick up the slack, and by doing so they in turn neglected their own position groups (which still weren't as talented as you want yet). So we had an abysmal defense, and still went 9-3.

That's now addressed, we have new guys who seem to be putting in a good scheme, but need the talent (linebackers and secondary) to really make it great. The defensive line, expected to be the weakest link, has played well.

I'll say it again- I'm ok with where we're at. Kelly was not coming in to bump a good program up like Kirby did at UGA, despite what some unrealistic fans might think. He was brought in to rebuild the program from basically the ground up, so that it lasts. We don't need to have 1 great run and then be 6-6 again, we need to set the basement high, and build from there. That takes time.

Get out of here with this crap, we're busy tracking preseason baseball activities!

I hate all the culture and fit talk. Coach O was pure LSU culture down to his core. The dude even went undefeated and won the national championship. He got fired because he didn't win enough.

Nick Saban was never a fit at LSU and there isn't a fan out there was wouldn't push over their grandmother to change history so he never goes to the NFL.

Brian Kelly isn't a fit for LSU but no one cares his first year when he beat Bama. We care now because he's proven he is what he always has been, a coach that had a great record because of an incredibly soft schedule. He goes .500 against ranked opponents at Notre Dame and dude is sitting at 11-1 or 10-2. He goes .500 against ranked opponents at LSU and he's 9-3 at best.

I'd make it crystal clear that only women (real ones) are allowed to grind up on my junk or that of my future sons.

Beyond that I'd blame the AD for making a lazy hire. As in just a big enough name and just enough accomplishment to justify the choice, but not really a bold hire of a younger up and comer who wants to build a winning program and leave a legacy.

I'm an LSU fan and I think I know how Alabama must have felt when Bill curry fielded teams and pissed off Scott Hunter saying they can't block and tackle.

It's smart to go back to Bear Bryant and his philosophy to never get beaten physically.

False.

He got fired because he went .500 in back to back seasons.

If a fan is satisfied with winning 9-10 games per year and never winning a national title then he's a very solid hire. But he's not a NC type of coach. He reaches his ceiling relatively fast and doesn't go any higher. That's what LSU hired.

Who is better that is available???
Won many games??
How many Coaches have Won a N C
How many have not??

I wouldn't trade Pittman for him. He would suck in Fayetteville on and off the field.
