I wouldn’t really think it was anything he did but something they could find to site the clause. It could be something as simple as the lawsuit from the Gregg Brooks family. I’m sure Lsu has done their internal investigations.

It was deleted because it was inaccurate. There is a lot of misdirection going on, which is a good thing in my opinion. Get people chasing their tails while they go conduct business and get a new coach.

The most lsu thing ever to come out of this would be LSU owe Kelly more than the original buyout because Governor Aligator Hunter leaked false info about Kelly out there and then he wins a defamation case to go on top of his buyout


He'd have to sue Landry directly, not LSU.

I actually agree with this 100%.

What's crazy is that we are all giving a sigh of relief that it's not $54M, ...yet it's still an absurd $27M.

If $27M is reasonable now, then Lanning's $20M buyout is a straight up bargain.

LSU not having the full buyout money disproves a lot of narratives.

The very reason that Kelly would agree to renegotiate is to keep the information that they’re siting private.

Maybe the drinking issue creeping up on him would be the most logical explanation


We have a winner. And the buyout is at 27 million. I told y'all LSU wouldn't fire time unless the buyout was less than 30 million.

I thought that meant in two years, but here we are.

Kelly's buyout was negotiated down to $27 million, about half of what he was owed. This was done through the violation of morality clauses in his contract.


If this is true, why does LSU owe him anything?

If the report is accurate, and the buyout was negotiated to a 27 million lump sum payment, it is actually mutually beneficial. Kelly gets his money upfront that he can invest however he wants and potentially turn it into 40 million or more. It probably also then would not be tied to his future employment. For LSU they get to reduce the large buyout number and be done with Kelly forever.

Kelly could have easily said give me half in a lump sum and remove offset language based on other employment.

If he gets hired now and gets $6 or $7 million per year, he actually get more money this way.

It helps LSU pay a known amount and then if he doesn’t take a year off, saves them money that no offset for a year lost.

It’s a win-win for both parties.

Also, by firing Kelly first, it reduces the buyout for the assistants to at most 6 months from the date he was fired.

Moscona mentioned morality as well. It’s probably accurate

If there was violation of the morality clause, LSU powers that be, didn't just found out about this Sunday morning. They had to have known about it.

So, if LSU was still ranked No. 3 and heading to the playoffs, the moral violation wouldn't be an issue? That would be slimy as hell on LSU part.

And...I'm glad Kelly is gone, but put the facts out there and let the chips fall where they may, on both sides.
