“It recruits itself” is bullshit. Just ask Texas.


To be fair, two idiots won titles there...very recently

That said, both idiots were known as good recruiters before they got there.

Nobody has ever accused Brian Kelly of being particularly charming or hard-working on the recruiting trail.


Recently is a bit subjective

Miles won his championship in 2007 in a weird year where he had two losses. Not to mention he won his title before the Bama machine was operational.

Interestingly enough, for all the talk about the LSU program, other than the NC in 2019 where the stars aligned, they haven’t had a season with less than 3 losses since 2011.


Your last two sentences are the key.

You can cover up a lot of sins with the best talent. O had a generational talent in Burrows with a great supporting staff. But O also believed in his guys and lined up. Kelly’s schemes always require him to look like he’s outsmarting everyone.

The two “idiots” who won titles at LSU are both better overall college coaches than Kelly.


LOL the whole post IS 2 sentences
