re: What is Kelly hiding?

Did they formally fire him or inform him of his pending termination and put him on administrative leave until the details were sorted out?


in the public press release they said

“LSU Athletics has made the decision to separate with football head coach Brian Kelly effective immediately

that statement was released in Oct 27.

Not a fan but SW did not negotiate Jimbo's contract / extension at A&M. That was done by the previous AD. SW was just there at the end


you have that backwards.
the Extension and raise were given to Jimbo after Woodward already left.

Fisher walked away with buyout that was worth more money than the entirety of the contract Woody signed him to.

the rule was put in place to prevent QB (or any runner for that matter) from getting obliterated just before or right at their knees hitting the ground.

A sliding player is down where they begin the slide and give themselves up.

before Kenny Pickett, i don’t guess anyone faked it, so the rule was always around actually sliding.
now it includes fake slides

that’s been the rule since at least the 90s.

Has it? I think it’s more recent than that.


just looked it up … 1985
2021 they added wording to include “simulated slides” to cover the Kenny Picket play.
But the rule itself has been in existence since 1985 and the sliding player is down where they initiate the slide because that’s where they are “giving themselves up”

that’s been the rule since at least the 90s.
it’s not very often that the slide is literally within inches of the line to gain on a crucial down, so it rarely comes in to question.
but it’s always been the rule.

Kelly is stupid not to take a $30M lump sum and remove mitigation. He'll end up with less money in the long run.


how?
right now he get $54 mil

only way he gets less is if he negotiates for less.

Gordon contributes to NIL and I’m sure some of coaches salary/buyout. He absolutely gets a say as does every whale at LSU.

Youre just looking for excuses to justify Brady, you dont actually care if theres merit.


I don't even want Brady, so you have me wrong on that one.

but I'm not on the search committee, so my opinion doesn't matter much.

pretty much every successful head coach (with a few notable exceptions) in college were all successful coordinators at one time on their way up the coaching ladder.

sure you can point out the successful coordinators that failed as HC.
you can also point out the HC that moved up to bigger schools and failed as well.
shite we just fired a guy that was very successful at a big name school already and failed.

Joe Brady hasn't done anything notable since 2019 that should put him even in the top 50 potential candidates.

Someone explain it. Even his NFL success isn't exactly too notable, certainly something we've seen from coaches before.



his offense currently leads the NFL in Total Offense
Had the #3 Scoring Offense in the NFL this year and was #2 Scoring Offense in NFL last year.

1) We are not promoting another interim to head coach. We JUST did that and ultimately fired the guy


we also just hired a guy that was the winningest coach in the history of Notre Dame and ultimately fired the guy.

before those two we hired a guy that semi-successful at a smaller school and looking to move to the big leagues. and ultimately fired the guy

If a Coach is not ready for everything that comes with being a Head Coach they can flame out and flame out quickly. There are multiple scenarios that prove this to be true.


Mike Archer here at LSU.
was not ready to be the Head guy and flamed out well enough that he was never even given another opportunity.

maybe if he paid is dues a little longer as a coordinator that may have ended differently for him somewhere.

Dillingham at ASU

in his 3rd season as a head coach in college
plus 5 seasons as a college coordinator
plus 12 seasons working his way up the ladder in other roles

then there's Kelvin Sheppard
3 seasons as a position coach
8 games as a coordinator

0 seasons coaching in any capacity at the college level.


not saying Sheppard can't be a great college coach.
but those other guys you mentioned all had at least 12 years being involved with coaching College Football. Which is a completely different animal than coaching in the NFL.

What made Leach deserving of the HoF


considering almost every college and or team in America is running an offense designed around concepts he helped create?

He botched the Will Wade situation. I know people will reply to this saying he only fired Wade to save football, but there is no evidence that the NCAA was going to punish both sports.


LSU basketball got punished by the NCAA and Wade got a 2 year show cause.

he would have been fired for that at just about any school in the country.
