Glad the LSU River Snakes (can they be snakes or is that racist?) settled with him.

It is cool to know that LSU is now loaded with money. So much so that they feel confident in breaking laws to bully good employees.

Damn whatever it costs, full speed ahead. We rich, Biotch!!

I don't know what the final settlement was, but from what I heard, Roy was very happy with it and said it was basically an admission of guilt on LSU's part.

Imagine all the Latin Flair he could buy with that money

To be fair, Latin flair was always more of an LRM thing.

Wasn't he fired over a financial dispute of about 50k.

I can't imagine what this ordeal has cost LSU in settlement/court costs. Why not just sweep it under the rug?

King declined Thursday to discuss the specifics of the settlement but said it involved a "substantial financial settlement."

"We're very pleased about the outcome of the settlement," he added.

Good for him. Ya'll think he got over a million?

It is public funds from a public institution. It will soon be public knowledge.

Unless it's a confidential settlement or court orders it sealed - might be blocked that way.

This is great news. Glad for Roy and his family. The LSU Music school mafia screwed him over.

LSU completely handled that wrong (big surprise). Though I will say LSU's halftime shows were much better last year than in the past with King. Things had gotten stale.

I had an adequate fill of Latin flare. I'm pretty sure just about everyone did.
