Why would he accept that number?


Lump sum vs. paid out over time

You can't go through so many assistant changes so soon and not think the AD will want input into your next hires.

Also another hold up is all the big time boosters do not want Woodward having full reign on this process.


Look I hate Woodward as much as the next guy but this is dumb. Why even have an AD. Just let the boosters hire whoever they want if that’s the case.

Brad Davis never seemed like a Kelly guy.
And yet he's the only member of Orgeron's staff that was retained. Bizarre.

I bet Kelly cussed people out and just frowned afterwards.



Did he slam his fist in frustration?


And repeatedly scream horseshite?

Because BK is still employable and could get $25M on top of future full salary.

If invested properly should double in 5-7 years.

It’s reported that his 54 million dollars is to be paid out monthly through 2031. If he gets another head coaching job or media job it affects the payout amount.

Dirt on Kelly. I won’t get into specifics.


Then why pay him anything? Fire him with cause.

This is wrong. BK threw Sloan on the cutting block to try to save his job. OP has right info according to my sauce. MCNEESE President will be the new president also the Bos is giving Woodward ZERO input on new coach.

Do they offer him 25 million max, and then just welcome him to fight it out in court? Seems it would quickly cost him more chasing than what it’s worth.

1. He could get it as a lump sum instead of in payments until 2031.
2. His contract has a mitigation clause so if he took a tv job or any other job it would decrease the buyout total.

Right. A fat $25mm check and LSU waives the mitigation clause. It’s not a bad deal for Kelly at all.
