4. This contract prevents him from being employed by any SEC school as a coach in any capacity for 18 months. That means Saban (or anyone else in the SEC) can’t hire him as an analyst. That means he can’t recruit for any other SEC schools

That's not what the contract says. Section 4(c) says he cannot serve "in a head coach capacity" for a SEC school for 18 months.

So the interesting question is whether his other (new) contract will keep him employed after the end of the season, or whether he will have the flexibility (after this season) to go be an Assistant Coach or Analyst at another school.

Well, Section 4(a) says he has to make "local public appearances on behalf the LSU athletics program"...
I don't think Saban (or anyone else) wants their assistant coaches or analysts doing that.

Section 4(c) says LSU retains the rights to his name and likeness for media usage.
So... that seems to knock him out of anything that would appear in a media guide, right? Does Alabama want to pay LSU the royalties to list their new defensive line coach?

And this one uses the following language:
During the Term, Employee hereby grants University an irrevocable, non-exclusive, non-assignable, non-transferrable worldwide limited license to use Employee's name and approve likeness in media, advertising and promotional materials in support of the LSU athletics program in a non-commercial capacity

I'm not a lawyer, someone help me out here. Sounds like O can not back out of this one even if he wants to.
