Kenny Lacy posted to Facebook on Monday with an anecdote about LSU's new interim coach Frank Wilson and some other coaches visiting with the Lacy family after Kyren's death. Notably absent was Kelly, who Lacy says never sent so much as a call or text.
Brian Kelly’s firing came after a “very tense” meeting with LSU’s athletic director. Scott Woodward met with Kelly Sunday after the team’s ugly home loss to Texas A&M the day before and clashed over staff changes, according to The Athletic.
Not long after Kelly was fired, Freeman was linked to the LSU job as his possible successor. Freeman had a brutal reality check on Kelly’s situation, calling it a “reminder” that the grass isn’t always greener.
The Inside Zone's Matt Fortuna reported that LSU athletic director Scott Woodward asked Kelly to fire Sloan in the wake of the A&M game. Things spiraled from there when Kelly suggested he'd get rid of offensive line coach Brad Davis as well.
