Not impressed.

Not worried.

Not my coach.




Im not sure Saban is worried about Kirby either considering he has yet to win a title.

Ed Orgeron has more titles than Kirby Smart.

The fringe benefits of shutting down the #Muh1980 narrative are going to pay dividends. Enjoy it while you can.

LSU hired a coach who’s 0-2 against Saban with a margin of defeat of 73-28; 0-2 against Smart; 1-3 against Clemson’s Dabo Swinney; 0-1 in home games against Cincinnati’s Luke Fickell; 3-5 against Michigan; and 0-5 in New Year’s Six-level bowl games, plus a BCS national championship.


Crickets.....so I will ask again since the money is being quibbled over, WHAT IS A COACH WITH THIS RECORD WORTH?

Personally I have a hard time believing that ND, with it's pull, can't field a top 5 recruiting class annually. If you can't recruit to ND, the LSU brand ain't gonna make you any better at recruiting. Let's be honest. When it comes to name brands Notre Dame is a heck of a lot more nationally recognized than anyone not named Bama.

beat...Smart routinely
Eddie "Blonde Bomber" Orgeron was 2-0 versus Smart

Kelly is an actual coach and is going to do well.

Somebody had to write an article saying Nick Saban shouldn't be concerned with Brian Kelly? Um, everybody already knew that.


That’s what I was thinking. Saban isn’t worried about any coach, period.

Nick Saban's only worry is when Terry forgets to get the ensure and denture cleaner.

If the topic is Brian Kelly, Kirby has 2 wins over him in the past 4 years.

Or is a coach being 0-2 against another coach not important any longer?


Uh, that was not at LSU, so no, it really does not matter; Or do you think ND can pull the same talent as LSU?

Brian Kelly with LSU resources = LSU claps UGA even harder. It's really not that hard to understand.

Forget the numbers then. What's a coach that lost to Cincinnati at home worth? Legit question.





Kirby almost lost to Cincinnati in their bowl game last year.

Like lucky not to have.

The Kelly hire is fine, but what I'm really enjoying is all the melting and blubbering by my fellow SEC brethren.

Thanks. It means a lot!


We had a lot of fun watching you set the dinner table for Lincoln Riley, having wipe his arse with your invitation, then you thinking it was gonna be some great NFL coach and then it finally being Brian Kelly.

We're still having fun watching you justify this.

They could have paid $15M a year and I wouldn't have cared to be honest. If you're gonna judge a coach off of one game, that's just dumb.

But this is a name Alabama coach Nick Saban and Georgia coach Kirby Smart are familiar with, and one who shouldn’t concern them.



The idea that Smart should be lumped in with Saban is hilarious. Kelly’s resume is objectively better than Smart’s.

Neither have beaten Bama yet, so does it really matter?
