LSU negotiating Brian Kelly’s potential departure
By Jacques Doucet
Published: Oct. 26, 2025 at 5:18 PM CDT|Updated: 15 minutes ago
BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) - It perhaps seemed like an insurmountable financial task, but it appears LSU might be ready to move on from head football coach Brian Kelly.
Several national sports outlets report, and sources close to the situation tell WAFB-TV Sports that Kelly’s standing with the Tigers took a big turn for the worse following LSU’s 49-25 defeat to No. 3 Texas A&M in Tiger Stadium Saturday evening. Two competitive road losses at Ole Miss and Vanderbilt were one thing, but a national embarrassment and all of the optics that came with it were bad news for Kelly in his fourth season leading the program. An emergency meeting of the university’s higher-ups was held Sunday afternoon to discuss the impending move, sources confirm.
LSU is now in discussions and negotiations to move on from Kelly and the $54 million buyout they would owe him if he were fired. LSU obviously doesn’t want to pay that number in its entirety, hoping for a compromise from Kelly, who just turned 64 years old Saturday.
Fixed it

Got downvoted on here and then they anchored the same post on the Rant. There are some stupid people on here.

Why would Kelly want to negotiate his buyout down? The man has no shame, he wants his $54,000,000
Posted on 10/26/25 at 5:58 pm to ELVIS U
I read somewhere that if he takes a lesser buyout...he would have incentives like maybe full amount up front, not having it pro-rated if he gets another job...stuff like that
Posted on 10/26/25 at 6:29 pm to Tigers4life
Kelly better shoot for the stars because the only job he can expect in the future is as a high school head coach. $54,000,000 or bust.
