Brian Kelly - LSU recruiting
- Thread starter Redmich
- Start date
Ha! That explains it, the kids could not understand what the hell he was trying to say!But he spoke with a Cajun accent though
I think Kelly took that job for a few reasons
1. It should be easier to recruit but really only in theory. ND is easy to recruit as well and I know they like to pretend that academics hurt them but their name brand more than makes up for that.
2. paycheck
3. Less pressure because he is the new coach, not the same old coach again.
His sweet dance moves give him far more credibility than sounding like 'Bobby Boucher' with a special andoule sausage in his mouth.But he spoke with a Cajun accent though
What is your point? I think he is an opportunistic pile of garbage and utterly unscrupulous. He is all about himself. I never said he was not a successful coach at ND. All I said was I hope he is a huge flop at LSU. And I stand by that.
Pretty sure Kelly will do well there if the Cajun horde will buy into his style. I initially thought it was an underwhelming hire but as time has gone on I think they made about the best hire they could short of saban. He will bring stability and accountability to lsu that won the recent natty in spite of lacking it.
I hear he’s been falling asleep while listening to old Justin Wilson shows, trying to subliminally brainwash himself.But he spoke with a Cajun accent though
If he’d stop creepily dancing with the recruits when they visit Baton Rouge, he might be able to land more of those blue chips.But he spoke with a Cajun accent though

Stay classy, king_kong. You don't see BoilerN and I laughing at you guys in the 'Ashley Williams decommit' thread. It happens everywhere.
You also didn’t see me on your respective boards crowing about his commitment to NU
Ya. That kind of sucks, but it's not the worst positions to lose a 4 star QB. Came out of no where. Brady Allen is on campus though and Michael Alaimo has been developing for a couple of years, so that helps lessen the sting. There is a top QB in 2024 from Indy that Purdue is fighting the Midwest from that they can hopefully land. Purdue wasn't banking on this guy, but it still sucks.
I wasn't crowing. I was discussing Kelly's recruitment in a thread about... you guessed it! Kelly's recruitment. That had nothing to do with Purdue other than Collins was committed there. I don't need to come brag about recruiting 4 star QB's to Purdue.
Came out of nowhere? You are so fos you sound like an iowa fan.
Four-star On3 Consensus top-200 quarterback Rickie Collins backed off his Purdue commitment on Monday, about three or four weeks ahead of schedule, from what I’ve gathered from sources close to the Baton Rouge quarterback. Collins has made a string of visits to LSU as quarterbacks coach Joe Sloan continues to dial up the pressure on the hometown standout. Not only did Collins camp at LSU in June, but sources point to last weekend’s return visit to campus. One source noted that last weekend’s trip has LSU moving in the right direction and added a new RPM prediction in favor of LSU. I’m told a decision should be finalized before the end of the summer.
Collins has also spent all of July tweeting he was fully committed to Purdue. So yes I thought Purdue, a school known for NFL QB's, with a coach that develops QB's and a QB friendly offense say well with a QB tweeting he was committed to Purdue all of July.
I figured if LSU turned up the heat though, it would get really difficult to hold on though. Happens. Oh well. On to the next one.

We all know you don’t need to come here to brag about purdue (lol as if there is even a single thing to tout)
It’s why we’re all so confused by your presence here in the first place
Hey BoilerN, if you know, did Purdue have any interest in Aiden Leffler from Indianapolis Roncalli? I used to work with his father. I saw that Aiden signed with Ball State, but I thought he was good enough to play at a higher level. Just curious
Name doesn't ring a bell. That could potentially change though with Collins gone. Collins committed so early that Purdue didn't recruit many QB's hard. I could see them offering since it's a local guy if Brohm sees the potential in him, but my guess is with Brady Allen in the fold and sitting well with O'Neil in 2024, they sit tight and maybe grab a portal QB. I'll let you know if I see his name pop up though! That would be cool to see unfold.
Thank you.
He started since his freshman year and shattered every record at that tradition-rich school. Led them to a 14-0 state title as a junior and almost repeated as a senior. Like I said, just curious
