re: Brian Kelly went on vacation during the bye week?!?

Saban took his vacation to his Georgia lake house in the middle of the summer. Never during the football season.

We had a guy that never took a vacation

i can tell you that did not happen in the mid 1990s....

team still practiced...
coaches did self scout that week.
we might work on the following week's opponent, but primarily self scout.
coaches went on recruiting visits.

If he does the same for the Bama bye week, he's toast! So Kelly, do us a favor and go "Fly the friendly skies!"

He’s rubbing our nose in his shitty contract.

LSU should fire him and sue for breach of contract.

Brian Kelly might as well wear a Hawaiian to the game on Saturday night while we get dismantled by TAMU.

My understanding is many coaches do this during bye weeks

love this board. They can’t conceive of a job where an employee doesn’t punch a time card and only gets a 45 min lunch break.

Worked for two major top 700 corps on C level. Never punched clock , but time off always had to be scheduled and corp always had black out weeks.

Taking off during crucial corporate times would get you fired if you were dumb enough to do it.

Don't be so quick to judge others you know nothing about

IF true, that should be cause for termination.

Well that depends. You’d have to look at the contract specifics.

Typical “for cause” grounds for termination in a college head football coach contract include (but are not limited to): (1) violating NCAA rules, conference rules, institutional rules (e.g., recruiting violations, academic misconduct); (2) misconduct, criminal offenses, moral turpitude/depravity (bringing ridicule or harm to institution’s reputation, e.g., Bobby Petrino’s first go at Arkansas or, more recently, Mel Tucker at Sparty); and (3) neglect of duties, gross dereliction of duties, misuse of funds, or failure to maintain program compliance or control personnel.

More often than not, poor performance alone is not adequate grounds for “for cause” termination—it depends on whether the contract includes it and how broadly or vague “cause” is defined.

If a two-day weekend vacation classifies as “neglect,” then that’s the best argument for a “for cause” termination of CBK. Otherwise, he has not done anything to be terminated for cause based on all information we have available to us.

His assistants should be doing most of the recruiting. I mean it’s a non-stop job and Hes involved.

During the season seems like a bad time to me though.
