Beyond the guy being a complete fake, LSU has an inflated idea of who they are.  Another place Joe Brady can consider in the offseason.  

He's the first coach in 24 years to not win a National championship at LSU 

 

I don't know if I'd say inflated ego LSU is a very good football school .. the pressure of the job and being in the bayou makes it tough to stay for a long time

Being reported Kelly was fired for insubordination. 

Not confirmed.

 

Apparently LSU AD Woodward wanted Kelly to fire Sloan, the OC.

Kelly refused, and wanted to fire some position coaches on the offensive side instead.

Woodward said no.

Wonder how they convinced him to cut his buyout in half and leave $27M on the table? Maybe the threat of "trashing him" in the media so he doesnt work again? Or rather the suggestion that they can end it amicably for $27M...

Yeah, I wondered that to.

Especially after I found out his buyout was not a one time payment, and it was to be spread out over 6 years. ($9M year).

 

Speculation is running wild right now.

 

If he was fired for insubordination, LSU may have told him he was not getting his buyout. If he did not like it, see you in court.

 

Personal skeletons in Kelly's closet that LSU was aware of when they hired him and Kelly did not want to go public.

 

Potential "show cause" incidents. LSU may suffer in the short term, but would make Kelly toxic to other programs looking for a coach.

my guess is....these deals often have an off-set clause in them.  So if he gets a new job, LSU "recoups" the buyout.  Maybe this guarantees him $27M with no offset if LSU doesn't think he will get a new job...they save $$.  Kelly can now go get a new job and not have to pay back the $27M in offset.   im just speculating....could be 100% wrong.

Former LSU DB Matthew Langlois calls Brian Kelly 'one of the worst humans I've been around' after firing

Then further down the page...

 

Kyren Lacy's dad takes aim at Brian Kelly after firing, voices support for Frank Wilson as interim coach

“This dude (Wilson) actually came sit down with our family and showed us some real genuine love when my son died along with a couple other coaches,” Kenny Lacy wrote in a Facebook post. “I didn’t even get a call or text from that dude in the back (Kelly). Must be nice to get paid millions to get your walking papers.. Let’s get it coach Frank.”
