re: You must find out how good Van Buren is

We did. 3 pts worth against a tired defense.
This is pretty much cherry picking data. He played pretty well individually, especially compared to Nuss has played this year.
He is not an accurate passer, but he gets rid of the ball and gives us a chance. We had tons of drops and penalties.

re: Pay this a-hole his money and move on

It was a bad hire and a worse contract. Pay this prick his money and be done with it. Wash your hands of the whole tenure. Woodward is gone amd we have to clean this mess up.
LSU is actually showing that they have a backbone. For all of you "bigger picture" guys... imagine someone offering to donate buyout money to you.. and then you just bend over and let the coach screw you... thereby screwing the donor out of an extra 54 million.. boy that'd go well for the future of our athletic program.
LSU is showing good faith to those willing to donate the money that the rest of us don't have.
PR is not what makes LSU relevant.
The new coaching hire is not what makes LSU relevant.
MONEY is what makes LSU relevant... especially in the NIL era. So, yes... do what it takes to show your boosters that you have their back.
It's pretty easy for you to say "just pay the guy" when its not your freaking money... and won't be in the future either.
Kelly agreed to negotiate just like he agreed to give a shite and try to win a national championship. He's betrayed the program on both fronts. This is what he gets. This is a long term win even from a PR standpoint for the university.

If so we got him right were we want him. He didnt coach this week, abandonment of duties, so now he can be fired for cause! BOOM!
Yes. This happens in business all the time.
You verbally agree on something, but you wait for the other party to formalize their position before you match it.
Kelly verbally agreed to negotiate. He's gone back on that.
LSU verbally agreed to negotiate. They are also now going back on that.
Tit for tat. It's business.

LSU looks like they won’t honor a buyout they signed. Now trying to fire Kelly for cause when you didn’t fire O for cause and your promoted Verge to AD with all his baggage. Probably gonna have to go the McMahon route, a young up and comer.
we will be fine!

You can’t assign cause after the fact.
Kelly verbally said he was willing to negotiate his buyout. He then formally went a different route.
LSU verbally agreed to a normal termination of Kelly's contract. They then formally went a different route.
Both parties are either innocent or guilty here.

So let me get this straight...We are going to try to re-set the coaching market with an incentive based contract with little guaranteed money. Good luck with that in itself. And what little guaranteed money we are willing to give, we don't want to pay it and will force you to court to pay a mutually agreed upon contract? Someone needs to get this administration a PR lesson and quick...
Our coaching hot board just shrunk drastically....We're fricked!
The idea that we are going to puff our chest out and lead the way to new innovative contracts when every other coach is getting big guarentees is what's actually laughable.
Woodward didn't do any different than what the other ADs are doing. If I'm choosing between Waffle House and Ruth's Chris, but Waffle House is gaurenteeing me stuff and Ruths Chris is staying I have to earn it... I MIGHT still choose Ruth's Chris, but I'm going to think about it.... im still going to think about it.

Wasn't Woody the person who enabled the scam?
If Woody or anyone offered you such a deal wouldn't you take it.
If not Jimbo says SUCKER!
I'm not defending Woody, but how was he supposed to know that the dude was going to take the opportunity of a lifetime and turn it into a golden parachute?
I'm just going to be real with some of y'all. You clearly don't understand how higher position working agreements work. If a company brings you in to be upper management, or an executive, they don't mandate freaking working hours from you in MOST cases.
You're a freaking big boy. It's an absolute insult to force someone contractually to do their job. You pay for results. Meaning, if someone like Brian Kelly can play 400 rounds of golf and still win natties, then fine. However, when they aren't getting the results, and they absolutely DUMP on you by not trying any harder... then yeah... they need to be fired.
Brian Kelly kept playing Garrett Nussmier because him and Garrett have the same agent. PERIOD. That's a freaking problem man.
These are things that shouldn't need to be put in a contract. So, for all of you complaining about this contract... but you want to see LSU just hire a new coach that's good, you're being a hypocrite. A micromanaging contract or one that doesnt have competitive guarentees in it is not going to pull a dude like Kiffin into the university even with perfect PR. You're all worried about optics but meanwhile you think the best of the best coaches are going to come play for a "pay for performance only" contract when you have Florida, Penn State, Auburn, and much more that will offer FAR better contracts.

Ah, little brother psychology at its best. How many bitter, resentful posts are you going to make about how Louisiana is going to FAFO?
You are clearly in a state of pure delusion about how important your university is:
:lol:

Over Heupel, I'd take:
1) Kirby - He has the culture thing down. He recruits and develops talent. Seems NIL savvy, and I love a defense-first coach. Still think the offense is too old school.
2) Elko - Seems to be a football wizard. Seems NIL savvy. It's a bit TBD but could be a championship culture guy.
3) Deboer - Impressive track record. Wins big games. Some suspect traits though.
Everyone else seems to be at par or worse...
:lol:

You do know they’re making threads about you and your stupid post over on the SECr?
Here’s a word of advice….
STFU!
1. I posted a 5 line rant on a message board titled Tiger Rant and you think I care that other posters have nothing better to do than post about another post :lol:
Edit- I looked... one post with 3 responses... wow dude, im really embarrassing Baton Rouge now arent i?
2. My point stands. Im not saying to breach contract. Im saying to put it out there how had this dude extorted LSU.
3. There is literally video footage of him discussing with his and Nuss agent, how much to pay Nuss.
4. He refused to pull Nuss during the season after Nuss continued to screw up. This, after pulling QBs at Notre Dame for far less.
Now add the other rumors about him. He got the contract of his life and basically gave 50% effort and finished in the end by choosing to he more loyal to his agent and Nuss then the University paying him.
So, as I read all these posts mischaracterizing my complaint, I can only say... get over it. Ofcourse I dont know everything, but this is what it looks like happened... and now BK is suing LSU.
Drop the hammer on Kelly
Posted by Ebridg3 on 11/10/25 at 6:46 pm
Public relations team get on it. Ruin him. Ruin his name.
This dude screwed LSU so hard. This was a money grab from the get go.
Him and Nuss were basically insider trading with Trace Armstrong at Baton Rouges expense.
3 mil in NIL money after we just coincidentally gave up on Bryce... not because Nuss was a superstar. He never was... but he conveniently became our only choice and chance
Now hes being an arse about the buyout. This is all just embarrassing

Lol. Or we live in a bubble economy that just keeps repeating the same bullshite over and over again.
Maybe every contractor out there doesnt need to be driving a new 85k diesel truck
All he can make is 54 million whether he works or not. If he gets another job, it's 54 million minus what that job pays him from LSU.
If he settles for less AND he works elsewhere... he gets the other job money AND the full settlement

There’s no question. He’s injured. To what extent, only a few really know. But he’s not making the throws he made a year ago, and his accuracy has varied. He’s always going to take some chances, it’s who he is, but you can tell something is not right physically with him. No one ever questioned his arm strength, but the ball is just flat on him, and he’s short or inaccurate with some throws. No question, his injury has affected his play.
He’s a competitor, too, so sometimes, as a coach and with advice from a medical staff, you have to protect him also.
Frank should address what his injury really is. He's clearly not on the right side of healing as BK stated
This is idiotic local no nothing takes. Nuss has mental things holding him back that also impact his play beyond decision making. He made all the same bad throws and mistakes last year
Great. A political coup
