What do they have to potentially get Kelly to compromise on the buyout figure?
The contract may have a clause requiring Kelly to seek employment elsewhere. They could agree to waive that in exchange for a lower payout.

He genuinely loves ND. Him leaving LSU has nothing at all to do with LSU. And if Brian Kelly is worth his salt, and he is when he puts his full effort into it, he will easily be able to find a suitable play caller. LSU is traditionally a top 10 program in college football. People will be very interested.
What a patronizing load.
We don't need an ND fan coming here to tell us about LSU.

Notre Dame people said he sucks at special teams coaching but is an elite recruiter and talent evaluator.
I have been told that while he was a hard-working recruiter at ND, he was not considered elite (he got his reputation by landing Manti Teo, but ND fans I know say that was his only elite commit)
My friends hated him as a special teams coach. They said punt returns were frowned upon by Polian and he coached up fair catches. No clue if this was true.
Although he was their recruiting coordinator, Polian was not in charge of talent evaluation during his second stint there.
FWIW

His job was on the line then. His career hung in the balance if ND fired him.
This is his retirement job and Denbrock & Polian are his longtime buddies. He wanted them to get the payday too.

Kelly has a history of playing multiple QBs during games.
If all the QBs are patient regardless of who is named the starter, BK will not hesitate to give them an opportunity as long as they protect the ball.
I find multiple QBs in a game to be disconcerting, but BK has made it work at both Cincy and ND.

How about while at Cincinnati when BK was at Notre Dame?
It's a fair question.
I watched the ND/Cincinnati game last year and I felt like I was watching the same teams on offense--except that Ridder was more athletic than QBs Denbrock had at ND.
One of my concerns about BK is that he does not have a reputation of developing QBs--what you see as a freshman or sophomore is what you get when they are seniors--in some cases, there were regressions (ie Golson, Zaire, etc)
But Kelly & Denbrock should be able to recruit better receivers at LSU than they have at ND & Cincy. So it may not be entirely fair to judge them by their experiences elsewhere.

A QB that throws well AND can make game-changing plays with his running ability. A QB that can actually run for 1st downs and sustain drives.
Isn't that a function of recruiting rather than a system?
I believe that Denbrock is a solid--not spectacular--coach.
But while at ND, his "system" was whatever Brian Kelly designed. Denbrock called plays with "heavy" input from BK.
Their past history would indicate that they will not ask their QBs to do things they are not good at. They will tailor the offense to the skills of their players.
