Brian Kelly checklist at LSU: What he must do in 2022
Just two years removed from winning a national championship, LSU football once again enters a new era. Brian Kelly, the winningest coach in Notre Dame history, was lured to the SEC to make things right in Death Valley.
While there's plenty of potential, there's also plenty of question marks. This was a 6-7 team a year ago, and doesn't return a lot of experience on its roster.
The to-do list for any coach entering a situation like this is pretty conventional: get some recruiting gains, work the transfer portal, make the right coaching hires, and finally put your scheme and playbook in place.
From there, you need to start winning games, get in the Top 25 rankings, and start throwing some punches against conference opponents.
According to Kelly, LSU isn't there yet.
"We're not ready to play," he said in February. "But we will be ready. It’s going to be a process for us."
What does that process look like?
