I don’t remember this, what was the context here? (Not that context matter when physically assaulting someone, just wondering)

ND staffer (not an assistant coach, some GA or something) started getting the face of the ref during (I think) a BC game. BK reacted as shown.

Appropriating Declan’s death for your own Twitter clout is BS tbh. Why is he complaining about both BK not talking to him and being forced to retire? Are you asking for sympathy for real medical difficulties or saying you should still be playing football? Because if you think another opinion would mean not retiring, you can transfer anywhere else and play. Inconsistent and nothing like a tragic death.
I didn't take his post that way at all. I think he commented on the original tweet because he has a personal axe to grind against BK and wanted to add his own "BK sucks" story to the pile. As for his comments about being medically retired, I'd imagine that was to add context as to why BK stopped talking to him. To show that he is a transactional person interested in what people can do for him.

I posted this elsewhere
Kelly was a good coach not a great coach. I will take the Kelly run where we at the very least were consistently winning bowls & beating USC over the constant embarrassment in bowls and never (in the case of the previous two coaches) beating USC that I experienced most of my life sitting through the Davie, Ty, & Charlie eras. That being said he wasn’t capable of winning big in the post season. We MIGHTVE held on to win the 2022 Fiesta Bowl had he stuck around for that one but I don’t think we would’ve beaten UGA last season under Kelly.

It’s funny to me that all these national sports writers and local sport writers and so forth are coming out and saying Kelly was never a fit at LSU. People were saying that on this blog the minute the rumor started. I don’t know why they thought anything different

There’s a difference between it’s the world versus us than it’s the world versus us being arrogant assholes. The message isn’t the same.

The revisionist history is just so funny to me.

Also pretty fun to have the ascending rock star in the profession as your coach rather than the crotchety guy damn near incapable of winning a big game.

I never liked Brian Kelly and hated him ever since that kid was killed in practice filming in high wind. Thought that told us all we had to know about the quality of the man.
