rian Kelly’s contract:
He’s one of the highest paid coaches in the country. 10 million a year right? Buyout would be crazy, he has job security. You think Michigan is gonna pay more than LSU who might offer him a raise?


I was thrilled with the Kelly hire, and still am. However, I don't care who comes calling, no raises and no extensions until some hardware is in the trophy case. if he wants to flirt for a raise, call his bluff. if he goes before he wins anything, well bye.


eta: "pressure", as a reason for his possible departure. i'm pretty sure the man faced pressure right in the face and said i am coming to LSU for 1 reason and 1 reason only, to win it all.......and that was with Saban still at bama. I don't think he's fleeing due to pressure.

Not saying I disagree with you, but that is hardware in the trophy case.

I agree. The HC does not make LSU. We've won with 3 different coaches. There are enough resources, infrastructure and support for a quality coach to win here. I want Kelly to stay, but he's not indispensable.

I agree with this. I would have no issue loading some additional incentives based on accomplishments though. Those are win/win
