As the LSU Tigers football program navigates an already tumultuous search for a new head coach, former players and staffers are coming out of the woodwork to shed light on the Brian Kelly era. LSU fired Kelly, 64, on October 26, the day after a home loss to Texas A&M, which dropped the Tigers to 5-3 on the season with a 2-3 record in the Southeastern Conference. Over the past week, The Athletic has spoken to those around the program, many of whom painted Kelly as aloof and disinterested in getting to know his players personally.
