Is Brian Kelly Underrated?

Jokes aside, it's hard to know what LSU has in Kelly.

He did well at Notre Dame playing a shite schedule. In recent years he was able to somewhat hold his own in the playoffs.
But his talent level at Notre Dame was never remotely close to SEC level.

You give Brian Kelly LSU level talent, and he might actually turn out to be pretty dominant. He might be the 2nd best coach in the West.

The last 2 HCs were far more sloppy than Kelly and both won NCs

Ig we'll see

As an LSU fan who was extremely reluctant for LSU to hire him, I hope he changes things up at LSU.

He’s has a rather abysmal record against top talent but now he has the players (more of less seeing it’s his first season here) so hopefully he will earn that pricey paycheck.

Logical thought pattern. I’d say let’s see how he does. I expect much better coaching than we’ve had in that last 15 years.

When we play Bama moving forward, we'll be on equal footing coaching wise. That should scare folks. Kelly will have us back in the Natty hunt in short order.

Also fair. But for the first time he has some recruiting holes to fill that past HCs were still riding the big wave on.

I’ll admit it, you surprised me. After I read what you posted yesterday, I would never have expected this kind of post from you. I’ll give you credit for not being a one-trick pony like many others who do nothing but throw out insults with every post. It’s always good to mix it up.

Brian Kelly got beat by Cincinnati, just last year.

He coached a media darling. Media darlings, consistently get their way.
I dont think he fails at LSU, however.

This really isn’t accurate at all. The last 10 seasons, ND has had an avg SOS ranked 23rd. That’s not SECW tough, but it’s definitely far from “shite.”

I hate ND as a football program for what it stands for: holier than thou and the world should respect them for what they did eons ago instead of working to be a better program for the future.

CBK played with the cards he was dealt with. He played within his competition, albeit a somewhat mediocre schedule. The program was/is/will be soft and it will bite them on the national stage.

"He didn't have the talent to compete at Notre Dame."

Proceeds to get beat by a less talented team...

"Well, he's at LSU now."

Cool. Brian Kelly got beat by a playoff team. So did Saban.

Kelly's going toe to toe with Saban, might as well accept it. He can X and O with anyone, and now he'll have the talent too.
