Is Kelly a Trophy for Woodward?

Shortly after Orgeron was fired, I heard an interview with a reporter who covers LSU football. He was saying that Woodward’s philosophy is that no coach is unattainable. And that once he sets his sights on someone, he’s going to make it very difficult for that person to say no to his offer.

So, while I think that they believe Kelly can win a NC, I’m wondering if this wasn’t also Woodward going big game hunting to burnish his own credentials. To be the first person to hire a football coach away from fabled Notre Dame. And the fact that he did it while the team was still in playoff contention only adds to the impressiveness of the kill.
