quote:while it may have been only slightly exaggerated, given all that has transpired since, i ask the following questions:
LSU Rant: BK was lazy, unlikable, unpopular with boosters, despised by his players, adulterous, and an abject failure as a coach
also LSU Rant: a P4 school will hire him immediately for $5 million a year so we won’t have to pay most of his buyout
what type of school do you think would hire Brian Kelly as their HC?
what kind of salary do you think they would be willing to pay him?
i believe the best he could get would be some lower G6 like Kent State, or
more likely an FCS school, at a salary in the $300–500k range
which means LSU would still be on the hook for the other $7.5 million a year til the original contract expires

I could see him at BC. I dont think he will take a job that isnt Power 4. Its not like it was a disaster at LSU. Finished with a 19-10 record in the SEC

. I dont think he will take a job that isnt Power 4.
on top of everything else thats been said about him, he’s now being portrayed as being hostile in his relations with his employer - plus he’s 64 years old and is unlikely to stick around for more than another 4-5 years at most
i still contend the best he can do will be well under 7 figures, which means LSU wont enjoy much relief due to the mitigation clause
which maybe why they’re attempting this “we never fired him” gambit

He would more than likely be fairly successful at a school like UNLV.
Winning expectation is low, several golf courses around, lots of casino entertainment, prostitution readily available.
Sounds like the perfect spot for a “checked out” Coach interested in scandalous entertainment.

I think he's gotten little interest in the open market and this is why he's changed his tune on the full buyout
If he checked out at LSU with all of the resources he had as it his dispoal, why would anyone believe he's willing to put in the work at a lesser school?
LSU likely needs to just pay up to get this out of the news cycle though

Still a little bit of season left. The carousel is just getting warmed up. Kelly will get a look, he'll talk some shite about how it wasn't his fault, and we'll all move on. We will go back to winning, he'll go back to never winning a natty.
I personally think it would have been a better move for him to stay at the negotiating table and work through it with the admin quietly, but after seeing his preparation and game time decision making, I can't say I am surprised.

some old Big Ten West school on Northeastern ACC school

Auburn would take him.

Its a realistic question. Which program would want him to Coach there? I honestly don't think there should be a program out there that should want him. However, he could easily get a job on a network.

Some AD at some Power 4 school looking to make his boosters happy will hire him. He is still Brian Kelly. He is still the winningest coach in Notre Dame history. They will all tell themselves that LSU is dysfunctional and none of the issues were his fault. They will get him for a reduced rate because LSU will be floating the rest of the salary. It will be more than $500k a year, but not $10 million a year. I'd guess in the 4-5 range which BK would gladly accept to keep making LSU pay if this split keeps getting nastier.

Your first problem was reading the rant looking for logic

you forget that all BK has to do to fulfill his contractual agreement is to seek employment
its entirely contingent upon someone desperate enough to offer him a job, and i simply don’t see that happening based on his miserable failure at LSU
