The athletic director was not involved?

That's pretty screwed up.

That could also mean Woodward is on his way out.

 

If not, that has a potential to cause a problem in looking for the next HC.

What possible HC wants to walk into a situation where a higher up will pull an end around and stick their nose into a situation they may know nothing about?

I dont think its a secret that at any SEC school, if the Governor is calling meetings to have you canned, no AD in the world can stop it. And that's the way of life down here.

 

I dont think it will turn any candidate off from the opportunity. They all know what they're signing up for and it's still worth it.

Curious what the morality clauses were that brought the buy out way down.

I think that's such a grey, subjective area that just the threat of being publicly called out on morality clauses and the damage it could do to finding his next job is enough to get almost anyone to agree to taking a lesser amount.

 

With all the stories pouring out about what a jerk he was/is on a daily basis, it's probably all those little paper cuts. LSU could make any of those into a big deal and drag it out in the media to get out of paying, or Kelly could just take $27M (still a good amount of money) and walk away clean.

 

Or theres a big bombshell waiting to drop that we'll find out in time. Wouldnt put it past Kelly, but I think if there was anything really real there, they'd use it to get out of the contract completely. And it's not like he has so many friends that theyd protect him from the story already getting out. But who knows.

Yo, this ***** is getting WILD with the Governor and his smack talking and now this

 

 

But I cant comment further without pushing this thread towards PPP

 

 

 

LOL

[Mike in Horseheads]

Now they fired the AD

[DrDawkinstein]

The school also doesnt have a President right now, which is why the Governor and Board are so involved.

 

So now these guys need to hire a President, Athletic Director, and Head Coach.

 

Chances they get it all right?
