Kelly is coming from Notre Dame where the Fighting Irish has a 11-1 record this season and he has a 92-39 overall record as their head coach since 2010.

“I could not be more excited to join a program with the commitment to excellence, rich traditions, and unrivaled pride and passion of LSU Football,” Kelly said in a statement released by the school. “I am fully committed to recruiting, developing, and graduating elite student-athletes, winning championships, and working together with our administration to make Louisiana proud. Our potential is unlimited, and I cannot wait to call Baton Rouge home.”

The Tigers are currently coming off a big 27-24 win over Texas A&M on Saturday.
