ND is hard with the academic requirements.

True but still...  The SEC is not looking like a picnic lately.  If he doesn't do well at LSU he is out in a few years.  I think he could keep it going at ND forever if he wanted.

Babers essentially placed the ball into a portal transfer from Mississippi State (who obviously wasn't good enough to stay in Mike Leach's system - which is QB friendly). 

it only matters if he was a better fit than the other guy at Miss St.  That doesn't mean he isn't good.  Leach is QB friendly but he also has a habit of having multi year starters and doesn't get them hurt.  If you ain't the guy for Leach, he may not be making a change for 3-4 years. No QB should stay to be a Leach backup.

He’s literally going to the school featured in the book The System where Les Miles did everything possible to put the best players on the field no matter what their academic ability because they had a system to subvert it. He literally would stand before the team and say Academics First while holding up 2 fingers, Football second, holding up 1 finger.

At lsu he has the chance to be the next Saban.

Hopefully that pans out.  He has to play the current Saban, who is still Saban.

I am still in shock about Lincoln Riley and Brian Kelly. Give me a minute before the carousel starts up again damnit!

College football has been crazy from almost every angle this year. Cincinnati getting into the playoffs will actually top it off. I think Kelly wanted something different (the SEC is definitely that) and this will be his last coaching assignment. Also $100 million? As for Riley, he wants no part of the SEC grind.

I love how this thread has morphed into a coaching carousel thread.

Could be worse.  I've seen threads morph into worse things.
