I thought that might be the case about a month ago when they were talking about in on the radio in New Orleans

Sources: LSU is expecting to hire Notre Dame’s Brian Kelly as the school’s next head coach. An announcement could come as early as tomorrow.— Pete Thamel (@PeteThamel) November 30, 2021

Peter Burns is going to get a lot of responses to this tweet:

Brian Kelly is already the winningest coach at NDHis legacy was secured in South BendWhat's left for a Hall of Fame Coach? To win a titleHe's seen first hand that in order to win a title in today's CFB environment you need a different tier of players.He'll get that at LSU— Peter Burns (@PeterBurnsESPN) November 30, 2021

Nope.

Two interim head coaches went to Cornell and St. Bonaventure in '45 & '46 respectively while Frank Leahy was unavailable due to World War II service.

Edit to add: The second interim coach really shouldn't count since he knew Leahy would be returning. The first coach didn't have to leave in '44 though.

Not good news for MSU. LSU has a real solid coach now. They will be really good under him and will be another very difficult win to get. I wish Coach O could have lasted another year but it wasn’t meant to be.

So is he quitting on a playoff team?

This just seems weird

Wild carousel season. Not very often that you see the coach at ND or Oklahoma ever willingly leave for another job, but both did it in back to back days.

Kelly will do amazing at LSU. Truly sucks for everyone else in the West. Esp State. His talent level just went way up. Impossible to get out of the middle of the pack in this conference. Hard enough just to stay in the middle.

And Jimbo was a lock to kill it at A&M too. How has that turned out so far? Let's don't over hype our opponents too early.

Kelly will average 7-8 wins at LSU and be out by the third year mark.

Yeah, Kelly won't beat Bama, and that's what they hired him to do.

Jimbo was never any good. I don't know why he is making all that money. Mullen did better at Florida than he has done at A&M and you see where he is

It’s also pretty much the textbook definition of libel….not exactly something I’d be throwing around for a millionaire’s legal counsel to just happen to stumble upon even if the perceived chances of any ramifications were pretty low.

Can’t blame him for taking the money, but LSU is overpaying for someone who can’t do what they want to do for that much money.

LSU won national championships with Les Miles and Ed Orgeron for goodness sakes. Some of you folks are clueless. Chances that they win another one under Kelly are damn near 100%, and chances that they have positioned themselves to be the pre-eminent power in the post-Saban SEC are also pretty high. Absolute homerun hire for them.
