Why go to court to risk that when you can both agree to settle? Also, why want that negativity to come out on either side?
It could be something really technical.
My guess is that if it was something really technical and debatable, BK would tell LSU to go F themselves based on everything we know about BK. It must be pretty clear and provable if they are using this to wipe out half of his buyout. That's a ton of money.
It just seems funny to have a morals clause that the coach apparently broke and he still walks away with 27 million. But at least LSU is getting a discount on the buyout. Saving a lot of $$$.

The post is fake. Literally the majority of things you see on Facebook are ridiculously fake, it’s alarming.

It is 2025. Screenshots, hell, video means nothing anymore.

I can promise you Jill Craft is frantically trying to find Kelly’s cell number.

Have people not posted who affair was with? It was a former head coaches kid from a different sport.

I wonder why it was done that way?

The very reason that Kelly would agree to renegotiate is to keep the information that they’re siting private.
Yep, and there could be some verbiage to that effect, though that would raise some eyebrows.

I’ve scoured the internet for credible sources confirming this, and found none. I call bullshite!

27 all at once up front isn’t quite 54M, but it’s not that far off.
This is a middle of the road settlement to put things behind you.

I mean.. organizations negotiate settlements rather than going to court all the time.
Interesting details In this WAFB story. Kelly has to look for a new job, but it’s not said what the penalty is for not doing so, but even that can’t force him to take a job (it takes two parties to agree on terms). It’s possible Kelly would take a reduced buyout that would be greater than what he would get if it took a new job sooner than later.

Someone posted earlier and I agree — if it is the realtor affair, shame on lsu for using it now and not before.
I’m guessing it was something else?

Your original position was that LSU wouldn’t agree to a negotiated buyout. But OK, sure:
Les Miles gave up $6.5 million guaranteed for a negotiated lump sum. Jim McElwain agreed to a $7.5 million lump sum when he was guaranteed $12.9 million under his contract. Those are just two recent examples that come to my mind immediately.
If you’re “a lawyer and a manager” as you say, none of this should really seem crazy to you.

I pointed out that the lump sum payment and elimination of offsets against future earnings were a carrot for Kelly like 3 posts ago.

So, if LSU was still ranked No. 3 and heading to the playoffs, the moral violation wouldn't be an issue? That would be slimy as hell on LSU part.
It's a slimy business these days. Probably always has been. Just more so now.

Is that final press conference by Kelly before he left Baton Rouge today fake?
