re: LSU may be one of 5 biggest underdogs in SECCG history, fwiw...

Your critique is that he has not won a title in the past, so he likely won’t win in the future

My critique is he hasn’t even come close in 19 years

The only coach in the country who has won a title after winning a title at a prior school is Nick Saban.

Here are all the national championship coaches since 2000 and how many years at a P5 school they coached before their championship

Kirby- 5
Saban- 7
Orgeron- 2
Dabo- 7
Meyer- 3
Jimbo- 3
Chizik- 3
Miles- 6
Brown- 15
Carroll- 3
Tressel- 1
Coker- 0
Stoops- 1

As you can see here, the only one close to Kelly’s 13 years is Mack Brown. And even then, Mack Brown had five NY6 Bowl wins before his championship. Not to mention Brown’s first P5 job was UNC, which is a far tougher place to win than ND.

A coach winning a national championship after 19 years of zero significant wins would be truly unprecedented, which is why I doubt BK.

Somebody should research how many schools have won a NC with their last 3 coaches. I would think it’s a very very small amount. It’s almost like LSU has the resources and fertile recruiting grounds to be successful.
