NOA On Sign Stealing

Can we finally put to bed that the “hammer” is coming? I know we never said that but that’s what those delusional people south of us have been suggesting for over a year.. We know that Michigan has seen the NCAA’s suggested punishment. I can’t imagine that Bryce would commit without knowing where that is headed along with all the other potential top guys we are in with.

BK is very much on the hot seat. LSU is in a bit of a predicament as his buyout is just shy of $61 million (I believe that would be the 2nd highest buyout in CFB history correct me if I’m wrong) and allegedly they aren’t in a position to drop $60 million to kick him out (then again how many programs would be able to drop that on a moments notice?).

The article I linked above is rather scathing. Claiming he’s lost control of the team, that there’s no “want” from the players. Fans have always been skeptical of his hire, and many are now completely out. The article is pretty long but the TL;DR of it is that the talent is there but the coaching isn’t and it starts with Kelly. My good friend is a big LSU fan, he told me he hopes they lose out and that he hopes Michigan flips Underwood so LSU is forced to find a way to fire Kelly. One fan obviously doesn’t speak for the program but I live in the south, know many LSU people, and they’re all in the same boat. Even the rhetoric online is pretty damning for Kelly. I’m struggling to find any example of any largely supported defense of him. He’s now lost 3 consecutive games and the last 2 times that happened at LSU they fired their HC.

What’s my point? I think the whole staff is going to get blown up. If they can’t find the money for Kelly they’re at the very least going to replace their coordinators. And yes that means Sloan. Their OC and DC have little to no friends in Louisiana at the moment. However, that’s not even worth bringing up because I’m fairly confident they’re going to find the money to fire Kelly. You can argue they can’t afford it but I’m going to argue that they can’t afford not to. Nobody is happy with him right now, that means you’re not going to see donor support, their NIL will take a hit, and their on field performance will continue to spiral downwards. Raising the money to fire Kelly possibly eats into their NIL funds but even if it did I don’t think it would matter because you’re going to see a bit of an exodus of recruits and players regardless.

…and there’s no way their recruiting class isn’t seeing or hearing this. A loss to Vanderbilt this weekend might seal Kelly’s fate. Which might have some really good consequences for Michigan recruiting.
