LSU insider certain B Kelly would come to M if Harbaugh leaves for NFL (i.e. no clue what he's talking about)

Slow news day so thought this would be good for a laugh and reminder most insiders don't know ANYTHING:

LSU insider says IF Harbaugh goes to the NFL and IF Michigan offers Kelly, is certain that purple face fam-uh-lee values BK will come to Michigan. Kelly did state that he intends to end his career at LSU.

More for fun than to be taken at all seriously!

If offered, I would come (return?) to U of M and I bet many others would too.

I think Kelly had escape clauses for Michigan and ND while at Cincinnati.

I will absolutely support any coach Michigan goes with and I'm almost always positive but with our approach towards NIL and academic standards for non grad transfer I don't think anyone can win at Harbaugh's level but Harbaugh. Call me spoiled but I want to win at Harbaugh's level and according to JUB who I trust Harbaugh wants to stay at Michigan so to lose him now would be a total failure.

I'm going to stay positive by believing Ono can & will get the deal done.

Why in the hell would he want to do that? Didn’t he explicitly leave ND because he realized he was never going to be able to recruit the way he felt he needed to in order to win a title?

If he comes here he’s basically going right back to what he had at ND in terms of recruiting limitations. The kids actually have to play school, and I’m fairly certain ND does not pay upfront like LSU does. 

He can recruit anyone he wants at LSU, and the admissions office isn’t going to stand in his way. He’s got plenty of boosters willing to sign big checks upfront to secure a player’s services. That goes away with coming here. 

Unless he has some kind of emotional tie with the university or he’s from the area, I don’t see how this is anything other than a lateral move to a more difficult job.
