That would be the frick job to end all frick jobs.
Do you think we could afford a HS coach if that really did come to pass?

So be it though pay him monthly for 6 years
It sounds like Kelly has no aspirations of coaching again because why else would you choose payments over 6 years over a lump sum? Kelly continues to lie and manipulate.

Here’s the problem with just paying him…where’s the money coming from? Actual people have to step up and say frick it, we’ll cover it. If big donors were saying that, we have no problem. The $30 million we offered is probably the amount that donors have ponied up.
Our administration/governor weren’t smart enough to secure the buyout before firing the man.

First, this is a hot, hot take and highly improbable. Second, has this perceived lack of trustworthiness been demonstrated by LSU historically?

Can we ban people like you that think the past three weeks makes LSU more desirable for prospective coaches?

For all of you "bigger picture" guys... imagine someone offering to donate buyout money to you.. and then you just bend over and let the coach screw you.
If it is stipulated by a legal contract, how the coach screwing anyone by demanding what he is legally owed?

This. From what information we have, LSU hasn't breached his contract. They are still paying him. So, what's the basis for a lawsuit? Suing LSU for a potential breach of contract that could happen or could not happen as you are working through negotiations is purely a PR move.

I don’t know who is more retarded, you or the retards taking what you post as fact.
There is no contractual basis for forcing lump sum payment.

Agree. Just move on. Not worth it dragging this shite out
Posted on 11/11/25 at 8:36 am to tigerbait3488
Agreed. Just give him his 6 year payout and hope he gets another job to offset.
Stop with the lump sum since he’s already turned it down.

BK is a retard to not take a settlement with large up front payments and erase the look for a job clause.
So be it though pay him monthly for 6 years and let’s see if he holds up his end looking for a job. Once he doesn’t the payments stop
This is where I'm at.

LSU is going to frick around and end up having to pay him full freight all at once. His lawyer is going to go in front of a judge and pretty easily prove he was in fact fired. Then he’s going to show video of King Cajuns press conference.

No. Cause lsu is still paying him the 800k monthly. No judge will make them put that money in escrow.

This. It will settle. The sky is not falling. Don’t pay him $48M+. Pay him $30-40ish. It’s called settlement negotiations.
BK is a bitch for checking out on his team, suing us, and not wanting to have to work again for a new team. frick him.

His lawyers filed the suit for leverage. In the end, BK probably will take a lump sum settlement, just not the sub $30m that LSU wanted.
Anything that happens between BK and LSU from here on out is for leverage, pure and simple. Trying to publicly give LSU a black eye is part of that.
Given that the contract requires BK to make good faith efforts to find a new job commensurate with his skill the level the only real issue before the judge is whether he was fired with or without case. With cause firing reasons are set forth in the contract.
If this case ends, and BK wins, LSU can file suit a year or two later and seek a reduction in payments because of BK's lack of good faith in seeking a new job. Given that, and the length of the buyout, it will probably settle sometime before the summer.

No. When you fire a coach, you go to war. You go after them for anything and all things they have ever done in their lives. You go after their friends, you go after their family. You do whatever it takes to ensure that person cannot ever hold a job ever again. This is war and we are LSU. If you dare to coach here, then you dare to accept the consequences if you fail.
I don't think your position is quite extreme enough.
