Michael Wilbon shreds Brian Kelly after LSU firing, calls out arrogance from Notre Dame departure

Michael Wilbon is not sad to see Brian Kelly out as the LSU head coach.

Kelly’s Sunday firing came up on Monday’s Pardon the Interruption, and Wilbon did not hold back. The ESPN commentator slammed Kelly as arrogant, recalling how he left Notre Dame for Baton Rouge.

    “Part of this makes me smile a little bit,” Wilbon said. “Because he was so arrogant about it, about the transition. ‘I’m gonna leave Notre Dame and go some place I can win a national championship.’ Do you think the rest of us are fools? And he sort of got what was coming.

    “Now, is it the right move (to fire him in October)? Probably not. Because LSU, like so many other schools, are led by administrators and boosters who are so damn arrogant themselves. They think it’s their birthright. … Don’t tell me they can automatically, just because everybody else had won a championship in four years — (Ed) Orgeron, (Nick) Saban — don’t tell me they are automatically going to find the coach who is going to deliver a championship in a couple of years.”

    Be warned, college football coaches, if you say your former program was holding you back from winning a national title, you’re likely to draw Wilbon’s ire. Les Miles, meanwhile, is glad that Tony Kornheiser remembered he also won a national championship early in his LSU tenure.
