Former LSU head coach Brian Kelly has reportedly expressed interest in the vacant head coaching position at Florida State University, according to a report from College Sports Network. The news has drawn a strong negative reaction from Florida State fans, who have taken to social media with messages such as "STAY AWAY" and "We Not Interested" to oppose the potential hire.

Kelly, who previously coached at Notre Dame and Cincinnati before his tenure at LSU, has not been officially linked to the Seminoles' search by the university. The fan backlash highlights the contentious nature of the coaching search as Florida State looks to replace its previous head coach.
