Brian Kelly Leaves
Notre Dame for L.S.U.
(NYT)
Brian Kelly will leave Notre Dame to become the football coach at Louisiana State, the latest in a series of changes at some of the country’s most storied college football programs.
Billy Napier's hiring not mentioned "in a series of changes". Florida not included among "some of the country's most storied college football programs."
The news was confirmed Tuesday morning by L.S.U.
The hiring follows the move of Lincoln Riley from Oklahoma to Southern California. Both shifts surprised the college football world, where coaches do not regularly voluntarily leave elite programs, and created enticing vacancies at the universities Riley and Kelly left behind.
