So let’s pump the brakes on the fire everyone narrative.

Not happening.

$76.375m to part ways and probably $100m+ to assemble a new staff and get them to jump from where they are.



quote:

The total buyout for all LSU football coaches (head coach Brian Kelly plus the 10 assistant coaches) at the end of the 2025 season is: -
Brian Kelly: **$51.7 million** -
Assistant Coaches **$24.675 million**
**Grand Total: $76.375 million**

I think everyone is well aware that we’re stuck with the bastard for a while.

They aren't firing kelly for a few years. Some need to get over this.

Sloan needs to go and they need to find a hotshot.

Davis too.

Maybe someone can find a tape of him performing beastiality.

That should get him fired for cause, no?

Correct

Having said that, the melt from the loss this weekend is ridiculously over the top.

LSU fans are making Bama fans look reasonable.

If only we had a chicken tender billionaire and some sleazy trial lawyers handy.

the absolute earliest would be after 2027 and even that is probably a stretch

Need a lawyer to go over the contract and see what qualifies as a firing with cause to avoid the buyout. Then we need a fan to take one for the team.

Zero chance Kelly is gone after this year. Sloan has to go though. Kelly can’t afford to not make a change at OC.

I think the days of 10 year, $100M contracts are over. It will go towards buying players. 4 or 5 year deals will be the norm.

Why even post this? We all know we are stuck with CBK at least through year 6.
