Why did she leave USCe? $$$? Lack of playing time$ Mr. Staley piss her off?
She hasn't really said. All she said was "needed a change", but I call BS on that because she was a hometown superstar in Columbia.
I think that, for whatever reason, Staley did not give her the respect she deserves and she was embarrassed about consistently not starting in front of her home town crowd. Staley always talked her up when she would dominate a game, but the very next game she would see <10 minutes.
She was my favorite (and most feared) player on USC. I couldn't believe it when we got her, still can't. Whatever happened, I am thankful!

Take my predecessor to court to not pay him money that the contract they signed with him says that they owe him.
I'm sorry, who is taking who to court?

LSU could have put out a statement that Kelly had not been fired, and that Woodward had gone rogue, and that instead they were dismissing Woodward. But they didn't
You are making a huge assumption about what LSU 'should' have done but didn't. They are under no legal obligation to announce something like that, nor are they expected to. If LSU was participating in good faith negotiations, they wouldn't have announced it anyways because they were trying to preserve everyone's integrity.
I know that, at my job, in order to fire someone I need the approval of 1) HR, 2) Legal and Compliance, 3) my direct supervisor. This is regardless whether everyone at the office is chanting for the firing or the governor is holding meetings at his house about it. Im not sure if it is the same at LSU but probably similar, especially when a $53.3 million guaranty is involved.
There are several reasons to believe that Woodward possibly went rogue 1) no one was expecting the firing so soon, why not at least wait until after Alabama? 2) Obviously they were in the late stage of hiring the new president because he officially came on a week later, so the interim would be reluctant to give authority 3) the firing was on Sunday, L&C and HR are not at work (likely hung over, lol) and less likely to have time to perform due diligence.
In my opinion it is perfectly reasonable to think that Woodward did this on purpose in a time of transition because he knew that LSU was preparing a "for cause" argument, and he wanted to ensure that Kelly got his guarantee because he wrote the contract and felt a personal obligation to his man Kelly. He probably thought he could get away with it because of the Governor's and Fans' actions, plus he generally enjoyed booster support and brought LSU multiple national championships from other coaching hires.

When I say LSU is bumbling around, they are not doing anything to contradict the very public perception that this whole thing was done without a plan, without alignment, and without leadership support.
The lawsuit was just filed Monday! LSU is discussing with attorneys right now how they want to approach it publicly, or whether they can or want to at all.
Also, if Woodward did go rogue, LSU would acknowledge that the firing was done without a plan, without alignment, and without a sitting President's leadership.
