I’m not saying that you’re wrong, but that it’s simply too early to tell. Kelly has had a lot more success that Freeman. Freeman may get there and/or surpass Kelly, but to date, that statement is premature.
He's doing the most important thing he can at ND, raising the recruiting effort and results. He's significantly better than BK already. His first two years on the job at ND, better results than BK. BK's win totals in years 3-7?
22...against 21 losses on the field and 21 wins vacated cuz he couldn't keep control of his program. Freeman has zero chance of performing that poorly through 7 seasons at ND. He'd get the axe long before it could happen.
Conversely, the first full recruiting cycle at LSU for BK? He finished
14th in APR which I didn't think was humanly possible in Baton Rogue.
He's all yours now. Who knows, maybe with Saban gone, you'll get to the SEC CG and catch Kirby on a horrible year??? You guys do have incredible luck getting non-SEC QB's to come in and lead your teams but with Denbrock gone, BK the QB Whisperer will undoubtedly do his thang.
