re: What did Kelly do that could have gotten him fired for cause?

This will all likely settle out at $30-$35m imo… but it would be pretty funny if things turn out this way:

-LSU offered $30m. Kelly said no
-LSU really never had any true intention of actually going the “for cause” route and was just using that to get the lump-sum settlement number down
-Kelly’s camp gets frustrated with lump sum negotiation talks
-Kelly’s camp goes to the court to try and preemptively end the “for cause” threats
-Court rules that LSU does indeed have standing to fire for cause if it chooses and actually opens the door for LSU to consider firing for cause
-LSU fires for cause and Kelly gets nothing



-to sum up… Kelly could have taken the $30m and walked away clean but unintentionally opens the door to a for cause firing that LSU initially had no intention to do.

Like I said, doubtful it plays out that way…. But it’s certainly possible that Kelly and his attorneys opened the door to potentially get nothing when it had a clean $30m offer from the get-go

He told Scott Woodward that he was a "Championship Coach"! Thus, the mis presentation of the truth, a Fraud!

Yet...

I mean a number of patrons and employees at Ruth's Chris steak house maybe could at least attest to an altercation with parties that would be suggestive of controversy. Being full of shite on Torsogate and apparent concealment of #18 injury from some time in spring if you listen to MS talk radio. and smoke screening and gaslighting everyone about it (spoiled!) should actually be the nuts on the shite sundae. I mean, the QB gets paid over $6 million. The school expends a lot in brand capital and promo spend to have #18 be the Heisman early frontrunner. We spend a bunch of money on receivers to take the top off of defenses instead of his hallmark OL callingcard and oops, the quarterback can't throw past 20yds because of an allegedly concealed torso injury. But you're spoiled for expecting offensive production. What a necksnapper..

He wasn’t fired for cause

Insubordination.

Exactly. Too many internet lawyers are stirring this up.

That's 50% of the state population.

Seriously though, LSU is going to suffer long-term damage to it's brand by dragging this out in public. They need to STFU and pay the douchebag.

If he is funded by the State, then that is problematic for any future coach. My bet is that contract is at a minimum backstopped or wholly funded by TAF.

Additionally, what does his marriage have to do with his work unless he was sleeping with a staffer, coworker, or athletic department employee?

LSU could make the argument that adultery qualifies as moral turpitude, which is listed as a for cause reason for termination in his contract.

Research the law firm representing Kelly. That firm is one of the most prestigious law firms in the US. Best of the best. They know exactly what they are doing.
