LSU football fires head coach Brian Kelly — the former Notre Dame football and Cincinnati coach — and we’re going LIVE with instant reaction, SEC fallout, and the coaching carousel shockwaves. This stream breaks what Kelly’s exit means for LSU Tigers recruiting, NIL, the transfer portal, the AP Top 25, and real College Football Playoff implications. We’ll sort shortlists, buyout realities, interim scenarios, and which big names (and fast-rising coordinators) fit Baton Rouge. Plus: how this move pressures rivals like Alabama football, Georgia Football, Texas A&M, Ole Miss football, and Texas Longhorns, and what it signals for the SEC vs Big Ten power race. George Wrighster delivers no-BS analysis on culture, roster retention, December signing day timing, and why patience (or panic) from boosters can make or break the next three seasons. Drop your LSU football candidate, your grade for the move, and your updated Top 10—receipts welcome.
