re: What’s the “dirty laundry” regarding Kelly? An alleged affair only or is there more?

You know morals clauses are a thing, right. It’s not cute to speculate, sure… but if it’s true, Scott and LSU have every right to try and get out from under the mountain of cash they owe him if he didn’t stick to his contract. Blackmail and running to the cops is so dramatic. Welcome to the real world, buddy. Oh, I don’t know… how about don’t sign an 8 figure contract without reading thoroughly and minding your Ps and Qs.

If there is a moral clause ij his contract then he agreed it can be LSU's business

It’s “morality clause”, and yes there is one, but do you think this behind the back whisper situation about an alleged affair really fits? Pretty doubtful.

Gumbo, I generally like your threads but leave that man's pussy chasing alone.

Tip: most men with power cannot say no to the plethora of trim that will be thrown at him. Even if the force is strong in you, eventually the trim wins.

You can’t try to enforce a morals clause 24 hours after a blowout loss for something that happened years ago. They’d be laughed out of the room.

Truth is dude had demonstrated he was going to be very hands off, wasn’t going to change that, and it wasn’t working. Anyone who says this was a reaction to a single game is slow, this was a culture of delegation he’d built and if you do that as the head man it better produce results that are above reproach. Him not knowing what Sloan was calling in right before the half is a microcosm of his regime, inattention to detail resulting in not meeting expectations.

We wouldn't know if LSU had a breach of contract claim because its nondisclosure would be a bargaining chip in the negotiation.

Every coach is reading Tigerdroppings.com? I didn't know we were in such good company?

This has nothing to do with any morality clause, but I did find this part of his contract a little interesting:





If he really did go on vacation during the bye week right before we got our asses kicked, I wonder if maybe there’s some leverage here. Probably not, but thought it was interesting.

Exactly, we will never know the details of the buyout.

BK getting on a jet tells you all you need to know as well, he was ready to go. He went into that meeting knowing he was done regardless

It was. It evolved all day Sunday. As of mid morning he wasn’t being fired until the money started to show up for the combination of buy out, new staff, and future NIL.

I fully believe he was coaching for his job Saturday. A loss knocked us out of the playoffs, which was supposed to be almost a give destination for this team.

A close competitive loss might have made the powers that be contemplate making the move immediately.

The absolute clusterfrick in all 3 phases in the second half, coupled with Kelly getting into it with Nuss and Sloan, and the team pretty much quitting through it all made the decision to ax Kelly a no-brainer.

If you were in the stadium Saturday night during the 2nd half you knew something had to happen and fast or you would lose the fan base.

Had season tickets and have been going to games for years. Worst vibe I've felt since Hallman.

If it is heresy, not. If LSU has solid proof it absolutely would trigger a morality cause

No it wouldn’t. Just look at comparable situations where coaches were fired for affairs. Take Petrino at Arkansas. It wasn’t that he had an affair. It was that it involved someone in the athletic department, and he lied about it.

If it’s the same one from the beginning, pretty shitty of LSU to use that now, years later, against him. I get that it’s business and it’s going to help lower the buyout, but I still feel like we’re dirty for it. Thrilled he’s gone, but it’s either a problem when it happens or it’s not.


Whatever helps LSU with the buyout, who cares even if it happened 20 years ago. get outta here with that soft shite

people are wrong about this, coaching is one of the sleaziest professions around, they are a back stabbing, stepping on their friends shoulders to advance, traitorous, and dishonest group, loyalty and honesty means nothing to them
