Allen Atkins - $990,000
Austin Thomas - $1,575,000
Blake Baker - $2,250,000
Brad Davis - $891,000
Kevin Bolden - $202,500
Kevin Peoples - $630,000


All other staff members have a clause that tie them to Brian Kelly. LSU does not owe them after this year.

Will pay BK about $25-30 million in settlement.

He built an incredible roster for the 2025 season. Talent he got us is worth every penny!

No buyout if we keep them, not sure that will happen, but it is possible

I wouldn't be surprised if they find a place for him in the athletic department if Kiffin wants a different general manager.

He already turned those numbers down. He gets 54 if he simply does the occasional interview. They may be able to convince him to take 35 with no strings attached. LSU's best hope is that he finds a job that pays him 9 mil a year.

Didn’t we have a clause in assistant contracts eliminating the buyout if BK was fired?
