Brian Kelly has been an LSU Tiger for just a few days, and in that time span, it didn’t take him long to develop a Southern accent.

Kelly spoke at halftime of LSU’s basketball game against Ohio on Wednesday. The new head football coach sounded a whole lot different from how we’re used to him sounding.

Take a listen to his accent:

Kelly was so obviously faking that accent. It sounds nothing like him.

Here is a comparison of his farewell speech to his Notre Dame players against the LSU halftime video:

I decided to go super investigatory. Here’s Brian Kelly saying “family” two days ago at Notre Dame… and Brian Kelly saying “family” today at LSU. Some of my best work. pic.twitter.com/JTzuIA2s2n

Does it get any more phony than that?

Kelly left Notre Dame and went to LSU for the money. The Tigers better hope he brings them results. For now, he’s turning into a punching bag.
