DiNardo, won 32 games at LSU, 18 in the SEC, when he coached there from 1994 through 1999. Like Brian Kelly, DiNardo had no clue about the unique subculture that is Louisiana, especially south Louisiana.

You can win at LSU with only Louisiana players - that state is the Dominican Republic of the NFL when it comes to players per capita - but I can't imagine Kelly putting forth the recruiting effort to do so. Austin, Texas beckons, as does A&M and Alabama. My guess is that Kelly will get absolutely pantsed in this new job. Swarbrick isn't there to schedule the ACC Coastal instead of the SEC West.

My bet is that Kelly won't beat DiNardo's record for total wins. He'll last 3 years.
