Allen Atkins, Austin Thomas, and Kyle Williams.

All other have the 2026 year left. Corey Raymond has an option for 2027 if LSU chooses to take it.

Seven staff members have BK clause that state they only get paid for six months from the date BK is no longer the head coach. Corey Raymond, Cortez Hankton, Frank Wilson, Jacob Flint, Joe Sloan. Jake Olson also has the clause but this is last season on his contract.

Total to buy out remaining contracts is $11,646,000. If BK is let go, then it is $8.9 million.

But i am sure that all these coaches will want extensions to stick around, so that may push the school to make a choice on BK before locking in staff for anther 20-30 million for next three years?

I'd keep all of those guys anyway.

Williams has done a great job at DT. Atkins is being handcuffed.

I’m not sure that Kyle Williams has been great this year, but it is also year 1 for him at the collegiate level. He is not a guy we brought in for how well he could recruit, but for his ability to develop lineman. I am very confident that he will get better and better given time.
