IF LSU is playing games and there is no "cause", thats a huge bad look for LSU.

Future news release:


"Kelly sued and the parties reached a confidential settlement"

But how typical is this in a high-profile coaching situation? It looks like whoever is in charge doesn’t know what they’re doing and doesn’t want to honor a contract. Can’t see how this won’t affect how LSU appears to potential coaching candidates

All of those had actual reasons to claim the coach was fired "for cause" not winning games is not a basis for a "for cause" firing.

Once BK side sees what LSU has, they will reach a settlement

If LSU had it they would have already told him. They don't have shite and he knows it otherwise he would not have filed the dec action.
