So let me get this straight...We are going to try to re-set the coaching market with an incentive based contract with little guaranteed money. Good luck with that in itself. And what little guaranteed money we are willing to give, we don't want to pay it and will force you to court to pay a mutually agreed upon contract? Someone needs to get this administration a PR lesson and quick...


Our coaching hot board just shrunk drastically....We're fricked!

This is a terrible look and we are going to get dragged by all national sports media for it.

Would you sign a contract with someone who doesn't want to pay you because they later decided that they gave you a bad pay plan and gave you too much money? How enticed would you be to work for a company like that?

If you frick up, pay it and move on....The spotlight on the circus show of our program is getting bigger and bigger.

No way Kiffin comes if you dont give him a better contract than Kelly got and that is fact......so you can cross Kiffin off your wish list.

Great solution...Tell all of the Coaching Candidates and their representatives to don't watch the National media...Maybe they won't even hear about it. We might be okay after all

What rational person wouldn’t see it this way?

Governor is sabotaging LSU football and you almost wonder if it’s intentional, being a ULL grad

how is the governor sabotaging LSU when he had nothing to do with the contract they gave Kelly?

This latest stance and response to the buyout has Landry's name written all over it...The BoS and big donors like Gordon have publicly stated that the buyout, in termed payments, was not an issue. Now all of a sudden, we see an opportunity to frick someone like an insurance company. This is a short-sighted argument and will hurt our program in the long-term.

LSU will wander in the dark in football for several years based on this shite show.

It was a decent run

The agents and coaches know a lot more of what Kelly was doing behind the scenes thne we do. Everyone needs to calm down and let this play out

I look at it as principal

You have to hold coaches accountable to do their job which Kelly apparently was not doing

400 rounds of golf in less than four years

How in the hell is that possible as a football coach who are known to be slaves to their job because it’s so demanding?

He obviously doesn’t love football anymore

He didn’t know many of the players names that’s being reported. Don’t know if it’s true, but wouldn’t surprise me.

He made bad coaching Hires

It is reported that he would be seen drinking wine in his office

And it’s well documented about the affair that led to his wife filing for divorce in his first season apparently, they reconciled nonetheless adultery is a very bad thing a private thing, but it impacts obviously the university in in a indirect way

A coach gets fired for not winning games, but when you look at the Y he failed, you see that he did not live up to his Bargain of the agreement.

When Scott Woodard hired Kelly, it’s not his fault that Kelly decided that he wasn’t going to put in the work and then he was going to drift off into laziness and sinful behavior.

I would just simply tell Kelly he is in for a war. He doesn’t want to start.

Because yes if I’m the new president, or the governor, or Board of Supervisors whotever! I’m letting the coaching MARKET know if we’re gonna pay you $10 million you’re going to work your arse off or are you gonna get run out of coaching!!!

It’s called accountability, and everyone must be held accountable to their behavior and their actions in this world

You don’t get to not do your job while being paid 800k a month and then to also get paid after being fired.

LSU should not play the fool in this situation if the above are true

Now had he worked very hard and had a reputation for being a hard worker, a very strong relentless recruiter and was well liked by The players and knew all the players and was taking care of himself.

Loving his wife and wasn’t worried about playing golf while making $10 million a year then yeah you pay the man his money and part ways peacefully

Good god, do you actually think the court is going to rule Kelly didn’t live up to the terms of his contract and can be fired for cause for playing golf when he went 34-14?

I mean, how fricking dumb are you?

This is LSU trying to weasel out of a contract probably with Landry ramrodding things. Landry learned his lesson about running his mouth in public but he can still be stupid in the background.

Either way, to quote the Lieutenant Stars and Stripes editor in Full Metal Jacket: “It’s a huge shite sandwich and we’re all going to have to take a bite.”

At this point, I’m all for gambling on a young bright ambitious mind with a fat NIL budget.

It’s different now. frick it. Break the mold.

Here here. Apex tiger you hit the nail on the head and if anybody can't see that I don't know what else to say. It has nothing to do with the governor it has to do. When you were hired to do a job you were hired Brian Kelly to do a job and chose you. Brian Kelly chose to Slough off. It's as simple as that. I don't care where you work. I don't care what type of written contract you have. If you self off your butt is going to get fired and you do not deserve the rest of the money because you chose not to do what you were supposed to do Apex tiger you hit it brother. All these other scaredy cats need to read your post
