It is either a fluke or you fired the head coach that orchestrated the best team in college football history.
Should we be surprised that coach O isn't in the NFL by now?

Over 19 seasons, Kelly’s average record is:
9.2 - 3.5
And ya’ll will say “oh, but that includes those smaller schools. Not fair.”
Over 12 seasons at Notre Dame his average record was:
9.4 - 3.3
So, this year is perfectly average for Kelly. He will finish 9-5 or 10-4. So right what one would expect of him.

Brian Kelly's biggest win IMO:
2022 vs Alabama
2022 vs Alabama

I see we're still trying to push the BK is a bad coach angle . . .

Didn’t you hear?
The jury is still out according to dumbfrick UGA fans in this thread.
Then they complete the circle stating their anecdotal case ad nauseum why he sucks.

It wasn't a fluke. That team was built over time. They did ok in 2017 with some hiccups, got better in 2018 and finished the season #6, started the season #6 in 2019, and then ran the table. Once he reached the mountain top, Orgeron flat out quit doing his job, made lazy terrible hires to replace Aranda/Brady, and the program fell apart. You can't be a CEO coach, not hire a good staff under you, and expect to be good.
Maybe people didn't expect 2019 LSU to be as good as they ended up being, but they were an expected playoff contender from the start of the season until the end. That 2019 team didn't just come out of nowhere. It was a team with a ton of upperclassmen and built with solid recruiting over several years. A flukish season would be something like 2013 Auburn, going from dead last in the SEC to the national title game, winning back to back games on some of the most flukish plays in college football history and then going right back to 8-5 the next season.

I don’t know why you’re wasting your breath arguing with overgrown kids that bark at people.

So you're saying he's already hitting his average despite LSU being in the first year of a rebuild?
That seems good.

Notre Dame afforded BK multiple chances to to win big games in the BCS and CFP era. Lost them all as far as I can remember. Sad. Pathetic.
You're right. BK led Notre Dame to 5 major bowl games and lost 4. Marcus Freeman lost that 5th one last season.
HOWEVER...........between Lou Holtz and BK, ND had only made 3 major Bowls and they lost all those too.
So for a program that hasn't won a major bowl game since the very beginning of Bill Clinton's first presidential term, just getting your team to 5 major bowls inside of a decade is good.
Next question?

So if it’s so much easier to recruit to LSU than Notre Dame, why has Freeman out recruited Kelly in back to back years?

His first full season at his three “major” schools.
Cincinnati: 10-3
Notre Dame: 8-5
LSU: 9-5 or 10-4
This year he has done what history showed he would likely do. He is not a bad coach. He is a good coach. However he has always been a bad post season coach based on almost 20 years of actual results. Maybe he has turned the corner now.

Damn
I'll use end of season rankings for his time at Cincinnati and Notre Dame
#12 Rutgers in 2006
#15 Pittsburgh in 2009
#10 Michigan St in 2011
#15 Oklahoma in 2012 (won Big 12, lost to A&M in Bowl game)
#6 Stanford in 2012 (Pac 10 Champs)
#10 USC in 2017 (Pac 10 champs)
#14 Michigan in 2018
#15 Syracuse in 2018
#3 Clemson in 2020
#5 Alabama 2022
Those aren't all his ranked wins but his FBS wins against teams that finished the season in the top 15. He's had quite a few more if I included rankings at the time the game was played. So his best win is either #3 Clemson in 2020 or #5 Alabama this year. His only opportunities to beat teams ranked as high as or higher than either of those two have been in the CFP, BCS title game, and regular season games against Stanford in 2010 (#4), Clemson in 2015 (#2), UGA in 2019 (#4), ACC CG against Clemson in 2020 (#3), and Cincinnati in 2021 (#4). He'll have a lot more opportunities to play highly ranked teams in the SEC than he ever has before. We'll see how he does.

Just curious, how many SEC titles do you say UF has in football?

So this is factually and statistically wrong.
Vegas picked ND to lose 8 of the post-season games he coached there, but he managed to win 3. Vegas also picked him to win 2 games, and he did.
Cincinnati is a little closer, as they were picked to win both of the post-season games he coached, and they went 1-1.
So again, how can you say he's a bad post-season coach when he's actually 3-1 in games he was supposed to win and 3-5 in games he was supposed to lose?
Sounds like he's a good post-season coach to an objective eye.

However many they have plus the one they were forced to vacate after the fact. I think the NCAA vacating wins and then everyone pretending those games didn't happen is dumb.
