re: Again, LSU can play chicken with BK

Kelly wanted $43m lump sum to walk away. LSU rejected it. Now we are here!
I don’t blame Kelly for wanting $43m upfront. It was also the right decision for LSU to reject it.
It was easy for Kelly to say he’s open to settling “if it makes financial sense” then offer a settlement option he knew LSU would reject outright. He can say he offered a settlement, just not a very realistic one.
If the parties can’t agree on a settlement somewhere in the $25-30m range, LSU would be better off to pay out the buyout as contractually required and Kelly’s new earnings will count against it.
No need to play chicken. Attempt to negotiate in good faith and if that fails, honor the terms of the contract and move on.

Clown shite. The effective date of the termination is the day they deactivated his key fob and told him to get his shite out of the building.
Not contractually which is all that matters here. Until the contract itself is terminated, key fob or no key fob is irrelevant.

You can’t assign cause after the fact.
LSU has the duty to inform Kelly 7 days prior to the effective termination date in the case of for cause termination. There is no effective termination date of the contract yet, so how can it be after the fact?
To be clear, I don’t think there’s for cause grounds here, but no one on this board is privy to any of the actual details.

re: They may be trying to get Kelly for cause

quote:
Was he notified of firing or being relieved of duties. Not the same. If some stupid LA process law says you have to relieve someone of duties, wait, then fire it may not be after the fact.
If it matters, the way the news initially broke was that LSU notified Kelly of its intent to fire.
We’ve no way of knowing if or how that happened, but Kelly is still on payroll, unchanged from before all this happened.
And people need to take a breath. Parties negotiate settlements and damages all the time. LSU hasn’t breached anything, but trying to negotiate here is the prudent thing to try and do.
If Kelly rejects all offers he’ll get his money. It’ll be a cold day in hell before LSU lets this get ugly and I see no chance this goes to court and LSU attempts some smear campaign on Kelly as some fans have suggested.

Doom and gloom. Catastrophe syndrome.
The wind changes direction and this board goes to pieces.
Stop being whiny little babies, man up, and let the process play out.

Nope. It’s still Jefferson then Harris by a comfortable margin. 2008 Lee makes a strong case for bronze.
1/9/12 alone probably cements Jefferson here.

I’d rather they nuke the filibuster than cave to Dems.
Dems are going to do it as soon as they get a majority anyway.

Wtf? What has Brady done to warrant this?
Get Golesh. $6M for 6 years. Invest a massive amount of the money saved into NIL each year.

Good coach, but got lazy. Probably thought just by coming to LSU a natty would fall in his lap.
LSU was right to cut bait now that some of the details are coming out about just how checked out he was.
re: How long do Democrats keep the government shut down for?

They’re digging in.
Even Dicky Blumenthal said this week the Democrats can’t end it and get nothing. They have to walk away from their shut down with something.
What that is? Idk because Republicans and Americans see this Democrat shakedown for what it is.

Good.
I’m all for food benefit recipients going to specific distribution locations to pick up rice, beans, canned vegetables and other basic common staples every month instead of getting a card of with cash to buy garbage.
As far as this ungrateful person, if the charity of others isn’t to your liking then GET A frickING JOB.

I still say throw $14.5 million a year at Lane Kiffin with the promise of a $25 million roster each year and I think we get a massively high potential coach.
$14.5M for a coach who’s never even won his conference? Thats more than Kirby who’s won 2 nattys and multiple SEC titles.
How many years? Kiffin likely isn’t leaving OM without a generous contract term, so you’re likely looking at 7 years minimum. At your recommend $14.5M, that’s over $100M.
