Brian Kelly doing Brian Kelly things

I had no real sense that Kelly would change when he went to LSU, but he is getting right back on the train without delay.  He is about as big a jerk and tone deaf as one could be.

Over the weekend, I got together with a good friend - who is a Georgia alum.  We talked a bit about both Michigan (QB situation) and Georgia (are they consistent enough to challenge Bama) - and, we watched the LSU game.

The  “gut” says - the Tiger administration is expecting nine wins from Kelly this year.  Ten (or more) wins next year.  And, eleven (or more) - in year three and beyond.  The SEC West is a tough division - and, I think Jimbo and Kelly will be squirming in their seats after next season.

I wonder what the SEC divisions will look like after Texas and Oklahoma join.  And, I predict it will be at least six years before Texas or Oklahoma win an SEC Division title.

Kelly being an asshole is pretty much your “Water is wet” headline.

I don’t know how I feel about the media trend of checking the social media accounts of players whenever they have a bad game.  TMI, frankly.

It feels like Kelly/LSU will be a bad marriage.  But then, I thought that multiple times during his tenure at ND and he still ended up taking them to the BCS/CFP a few times.  Somehow he has nine lives.

I loathe him. As a coach, you talk to the guy in private. If you want to send some kind of message, you play someone else in the next game. Message sent. None of this throwing people under the bus in the media right after the game because you're mad stuff. What a POS. 

I feel like Brian Kelly's tenure at LSU is going to be pretty short since he's not a dynamite recruiter by SEC standards and he wasn't close to their first choice for the job.

He's also a huge asshole but this is a program who most recently employed Orgeron and Miles so apparently that's not an issue.

OP title scared me…Was worried Kelly killed another student.

A couple more early season losses and Kelly will be fired. If anyone thinks Scott Frost is on the hot seat, Kelly's is heating up faster.

Brian Kelly still a POS. News at 11.

Throwing players under the bus is a BK specialty. But I was also interested in the kind of rhetoric he was resorting to--not a guy with a ton of obvious self-awareness. Usually you hear coaches resorting to cliches about how "we the coaches need to do better," etc. toward the end of their tenures, not at the beginning. That thing could go South fast. 

Let's not throw stones if we live in a glass house.  There is a championship winning 4 star QB on our team that fans are driving under the bus.

Players should refuse to play until he apologizes pubicly, walks to midfield in front of a full stadium, bends over, and kisses his own ass.

So where does Kelly land after LSU? Serious question, I'm actually curious.

This guy wants to be Nick Saban so bad.

What Brian Kelly said is probably not why they deleted LSU stuff from their Instagram. I can only imagine how toxic the player's DMs are. Then there are the "NIL" boosters who may not be all too happy with the player's performance and the return on their investment. 

Never underestimate how quickly Brian Kelly will throw his players under the bus

Wow, Brian Kelly being a giant douche? What a surprise. In other news, water is wet.

Leaders take on responsibility (in public, certainly) for their team's failures. This is not leadership.

I'm glad he's not our coach.

It's a shitty thing to publicly dump on a kid who's already quite visibly distraught. Full stop.

Throwing his players under the bus is what Brian Kelly does.  This is nothing new.

Players have power now. Coach says or does somthing they dont like they can control there situation.  This will happen everywhere now. Watch out for #12

It is quite funny to hear my acquaintances that are ND fans go from making excuses for Kelly while he was still their guy, to piling on when he becomes someone else's dirtbag 

Makes you doubly glad we've got Harbaugh.  JH does not drag Michigan players in public.  Or if he has, it's been rare and he's gone to great pains to protect guys like O'Korn etc. when things went bad for them on the field.

Brian Kelly is the biggest asshole.  Really going to be rooting hard against LSU.

Every comment post-game should setup the team for the next game.

He's got such a history of this - documented in videos anyone can see - why in the world do recruits still want to play for this guy?

Never cared for Brian Kelly.  I think the big winner here is ND unfortunately. 

Vintage Brian Kelly material. "Our mistake was thinking this kid isn't garbage, and I take full responsibility for that mistake, it won't happen again."

His relative success as a coach shows you though that treating people right is by no means a requirement for success. Fear, loathing and terror can all achieve remarkable results, too.

I knew all was right in the world when I flipped the game on and heard the announcer say, "And BK is HOT!"

I kept hoping he would go put an arm around the kid and build him up.  This approach, on the other hand...

Hope Jalen Brown, Jaxon Howard, and Paul Mubenga see this shit

Paul Finebaum weighs in: "LSU paid $10 mil for that??" Haha.
