I think we will be just fine. You should worry about your championshipless men’s program.

Seems to me he's more of a top ten high school guy and tries to get the roster in the top 5 through the portal.


This is pretty much how it is at LSU. We're usually top 10 classes and into the top 5 every 3-4 cycles.

If anything, I expect in 10 years we'll look back and Kelly and his staff will have increased our average class rank.

Kelly has only had 2 classes here, and I know that's a small sample size, but his average is better than the last 3 coaches we had.

Kelly was never an elite recruiter, LSU was never going to recruit like they did under Miles or O


Kelly is recruiting better than those 2.

It is only year 2 and while it is indeed a down year in Louisiana, I would like to see us be top 5 annually. Time will tell.


I'm just gonna keep repeating this: neither Saban, Miles, or Orgeron averaged a top 5 class.

Didn't affect Saban and his horrid living room shuffles.

Kelly's classes at Notre Dame:

2010: #10
2011: #11
2012: #19
2013: #4
2014: #11
2015: #12
2016: #14
2017: #15
2018: #11
2019: #14
2020: #18
2021: #11
2022: #6

LSU

2023: #5

Looks like he was consistently in the Top 15 at Notre Dame, with a couple of exceptions, and signed a Top 5 class at LSU in his first season.

Oh . . . and. . . it's July.

Kellly hired a staff with strength in recruiting idiot. They should be able to pick anyone they want.

At LSU, no. Kinda weird, he either had a 20th ranked class or a top 5 class.

But my point is that LSU is usually in that 5-10 range. The past 4 coaches combined, the average class ranks between 7-8.

Yep. As great as Saban did at LSU, he was better at Alabama from year 2 forward.

Why is that funny? It is a down year in Louisiana.

I still think Kelly and the staff can manage a top 10 class.
