Calls for Brian Kelly’s Job Grow Louder After LSU’s Latest Loss

In this story:
Another week and another awful loss for former Notre Dame head coach Brian Kelly at LSU.
The all-time wins leader as a head coach in Notre Dame football history left South Bend for LSU following the conclusion of the 2021 regular season and in year three under his direction things aren't going well in Baton Rouge.
Kelly and LSU fell Saturday, 27-16 at Florida and are now 6-4 overall in what has been a very disappointing season on the Bayou.
As you'd expect, social media didn't take it easy again on Kelly following the loss this week. However, calls for Kelly's job at LSU certainly got louder after the latest defeat. Check it out below.

Brian Kelly's Seat Should be Blazing Hot
Why is Brian Kelly’s seat not blazing? I feel like expectations at LSU have been boiling frogged into being lower than they should be.

Notre Dame's Ceiling No Longer Holding Kelly Back
Imagine telling everyone that you don’t think you can break the glass ceiling at Notre Dame because of recruiting so you go to LSU and get worse.

Brian Kelly Getting $10 Million to Do What, Exactly?
LSU in Year 3 under Brian Kelly
— Aaron Torres (@Aaron_Torres) November 17, 2024
* Lost to a bad USC team
* Destroyed by Alabama
* Destroyed by A&M
* Lose to Florida
* Never led Ole Miss until the final play of the game
* Would've lost to South Carolina if LaNorris Sellers didn't get hurt
This is what $10 million a year gets?
Brian Kelly Again Doing Less with More
I have never seen a coach do the least with the most

Notre Dame Improved with Kelly's Departure
Brian Kelly and LSU lose to Florida who came in at 4-5 and whose coach has been on the hot seat for more than a year. LSU has now lost 3 in a row and are 6-4.

Meanwhile, at Notre Dame, Marcus Freeman is 9-1 and marching towards a home playoff game.
Really makes you think…
How Much Steam Did It Really Have, Though?
LSU fans are not going to be happy about this one. The Brian Kelly express is losing all kinds of steam.
