It's nothing a check wont fix, the days of the blue blood are over in the sense of hoarding big recruits and underthe table chargers. Meaningless

Everyday they show more and more that they did all of this with absolutely no plan in place. I have no confidence in LSU’s administration getting it right going forward.


You should have your anger aimed at Kelly who did not have a plan to win championships. He certainly didn’t have the heart put into it as we’re finding out.

Kelly is finding out that his market value is horrible and he’ll never be hired to coach at a big program ever again so he’s trying to leverage every dime out of LSU which is understand

But now it’s time to fight for what is right Kelly did not do his freaking job

If BK did some of the shite we’ve heard about, he doesn’t deserve his full buyout. Why you want LSU to bend over and take it up the arse is beyond me. But I appreciate the university having a backbone if what we’ve heard is true.

trying to leverage

He has a guaranteed contract, he isn’t leveraging anything.
Sucking at coaching doesn’t void coaching contracts.
Sucking at governing or administrating doesn’t void coaching contracts either.

My post was based on “if” the rumors are true. The misbehavior in the office, excessive golfing on game weekends, vacations during bye weeks, not speaking with recruits, drinking problem.

If none of that is true and he gave 100% effort, pay him.

I haven’t read the contract and don’t know what qualifies as “for cause” but I have to believe the lawyers know more than I do and the buyout money is there. There is a reason LSU doesn’t want to pay him and now that a lawsuit is filed, they can’t speak on it.

I think this a whole lot of posturing by both sides and a settlement will be reached.

Seriously, why would any head coach want to come to LSU?

This will never get to Discovery. Both sides will come to an agreement shrouded in non-disclosure perpetuity. Kelly runs off to an Analyst gig, LSU moves on with a bloody nose and not hemorrhaging cash


You think Kelly gives up $10mil or more just because LSU doesn’t feel like paying? Kelly’s got nothing but time now. And he’s got a strong case. And he’s an arse.

Only way this gets settled is if LSU just pays the man.

This is stupid.

Why would any player come to LSU now if they have a history of not paying?
Why would LSU pay a coach that cant win? Winning solves most all problems.

In theb usiness world, revenue masks all the little issues and making money covers imperfections

Because it signed a contract obligating itself to do exactly that.

It depends on what (or whom) he did, and how much he wants to keep it hidden

At the same time, we’ll find out what LSU knew 2 or 3 years ago and they swept it under the rug. Does LSU really want to go there?

It’s legal posturing to reach a settlement. BKs already alluded to settling


LSU owes BK $54 million. Pay the man his money.

We already fired the person responsible for that contract, but you have to pay it.

Well we are about to see about that honestly.


They already have put it out there in the public sphere about possibly trying to fire for cause so the damage is done.


Might as well try
