It's worse than Trumps 2 scoops!

Meg Wochnick of The Colombian has details on what wound up being Kelly’s final recruiting trip with Notre Dame and perhaps his most memorable.

They hate it but

Those must have been some damn good burnt ends or some pretty good burnt ends but served in small portions.

Just when I thought the sports media coverage of Kelly to LSU couldn't get any more absurd.

This story should put to bed the lazy recruiter storyline, right, as he was recruiting for Notre Dame right up until he made LSU official.

This media hate for Kelly is the weirdest thing I've seen in sports. I keep seeing people posting that it's about the media's love for Notre Dame, and blah, blah, blah. I know, they do love them some Notre Dame, but they also love them some USC, and I don't remember Pete Carrol getting this much hate for leaving them for the NFL. Maybe they did, and I just didn't care enough to remember it.

This is just bizarre. The guy spent 12 years there. It wasn't like Saban signing a bit fat contract with LSU and then leaving the very next year, having spent only five years there. I always think it's low of coaches when they sign big contracts and then just bolt. This Kelly situation isn't like that, at all.

Frankly, I was, and still am very lukewarm on the hire. I just don't know what he has in the tank at 60 years old, to do this kind of job. Maybe it's a lot. We'll see. But you have to admit that it takes some guts to walk away from a cushy job where people are happy to accept just not sucking (what a mindset), and walk into the SEC at a place like LSU where the expectations are boiling over at all times.

We saw how quickly Saban gave up on the NFL, when he saw it wasn't as easy as he hoped it'd be, and we see how Urban Meyer can't stay anywhere for long. Kelly gave it 12 years, and has unquestionably taken a better AND more difficult job.

If you ever have the hankerin' for the world's best burnt ends and you're in the neighborhood, stop by The Butcher BBQ Stand in Wellston, OK on Route 66.

You're hard pressed to find better barbecue anywhere in America.

There was no word in the report on if Kelly spoke on that 15-minute phone call with a southern accent or not.

I get negative press when a coach leaves. The thing I don’t get is the love for Lincoln Riley when he is gutting his old program on the way out.

Good to see we have another gangster. This guarantees success. Media hate equals W's and it tastes much sweeter.
