Of course it is. That’s how Woodward conducts a coaching search. Just offer somebody 3-4 million more than the next highest paid guy. $15 million for Brian Kelly, bud don’t pay the players.
This shit will destroy us all. Of course, most of this shit will detonate in a few short years and the entire sport will have an all-time post-nut moment of regret. At least I hope before Bezos simply buys the University of Washington and offers recruits stock options.
Get the bag , BK. Thanks for rebuilding the program. Dont blame him for seeing the program has reached its peak
Also the big time recruits in Louisiana ain’t catholic. They may be getting a scholarship to play at a mostly white Catholic high schools but that’s it. Same for all the neighboring states that LSU recruits hard
Meanwhile Bama fans are probably arguing over which NFL head coaches they’ll hire as their next foot massager
We already have two on staff who are basically contributing nothing of any more value than a foot massage
This is usually how things go. These dudes are idolized as some morally superior “leaders of men” and then act like some fuckboy jumping from one fling to the next. Duh.
Brian Kelly is going to be a massive failure at LSU. We're talking Rich Rod at Michigan levels of "oh shit what have we done" failure. We're talking Scott Frost "what the fuck happened here?!" levels of failure.
I tend to think that if what is said is true about him being a relatively lazy recruiter, that LSU is a good fit bc there’s a lot of talent. And if it’s also true that he did build up the nd program, then you’re getting a competent program builder at a place that wants to win and can win again pretty quickly. That isn’t at all like Rich Rod going to Michigan—thatd be more likely Kelly going from Cincy to LSU.
This is a weird take. There aren't any guarantees in cfb, but kelly not being terrible is pretty close
We're going to get petrino or gruden or some insane hire soon by someone that knows better. And for $6 mill a year.
OU is going to whiff on Venables and panic-hire Huepel, leading to Tennessee offering Gruden like 20 million a year.
Fair. Idk the ins and outs enough so just playing devils advocate. Although, it appears nd has put together good classes, I meant relative to saban, dabo, Day, et al he’s lazy.
Brian Kelly nearly lost to Florida St and Toledo and is now being paid $15m year by another school wat
