re: What did Kelly do that could have gotten him fired for cause?

He’ll get the full amount of damages over 6 years and have to actively seek employment OR he will settle for a lesser lump sum without having to actively seek employment.

Riley might retain Baker. He would need some SEC experience on D.
Not sure what Kiffen would do.

I just have to wonder if we have our ducks in a row for this hire. It seems like everyone on the board has “their guy.” No leaks have happened to this point, but is that because we are not far along or is it lockdown?
I don’t think LSU can officially interview until this business with Kelly is resolved. Once they settle, LSU can engage other coaches… until then it is most likely 3rd party contact.
He did beat Kelly.

So who is second string now? Hurley?
That is the confusing part about the lawsuit.
If it is fact that he received a termination without cause notice via the press release, why is he asking for a judgement on how he was fired? Shouldn’t he be suing for the damage payments to begin immediately instead?

Is it a requirement that they acknowledge receipt via verbal or written response?
Just curious with your take as it is not outlined in the contract.

quote:
"to employee" and "to employee and company" are specific, and distinct from one another. As is who can write it and the contents of the message.
And how does LSU ensure “company” read the press release?
We’ll probably never know. I can’t believe this won’t get settled before the end of the year.
quote:
The contract does not state that he must be terminated by written communication to him. It merely requires written notice.
11 A says “to employee”.
11 B 1 says “to employee and company”.
Maybe we are looking at different contracts.

quote: Correct. And 11 A 2 states the termination date is the date the initial termination date is given.
LSU provided written notice that Kelly was terminated "effective immediately."
The contract states written notice TO employee.
If Kelly already received this direct written notice, he already has his answer as to how he was fired… so he should just drop the lawsuit.

I agree.
He wants it clarified… I was just pointing out that the contract states it must be done via written communication to him and until that is done, this agreement is still valid. And the agreement itself doesn’t state when LSU has to send the written communication. When they do, that is the termination date. He gets paid in full until then.
Kelly could say he is still HC until getting the letter. Not sure what happens then.

In my mind, he was verbally terminated and LSU negligent in getting written termination to him and now is playing games hoping he will panic and take their offer. He didn't.
Verbally terminated isn’t listed in the contract he signed.
He could argue he is still the HC since he didn’t get a written notice. Not sure how LSU would handle that.

So it would be in Kelly’s best interest to keep this agreement in place and continue to get the full amount paid monthly for the next 6 years.
Correct. And 11 A 2 states the termination date is the date the initial termination date is given.
Kelly just needs to wait until LSU sends him a written notice. Until then, LSU is required to pay him the contract terms… not any of the terminated clause payouts.

The notice is the trigger.
The agreement remains in place until terminated via a written notice to Kelly. There is no language stating a timeframe for the notice other than it has to be given before the contract expires.
We can agree to disagree and let the real lawyers figure it out.

What other meaning does “at any time prior to its expiration” have?

Yes. It is possible that a verbal exchange occurred.
Not sure how that affects the contract’s requirements for written notice.

The contract clearly states written notice to him and his company.
Shouldn’t his lawyer wait for the written notice?

Yes. That seems to be the case.
LSU may be willing to continue paying him until they are ready to formalize the termination.
It looks like they were trying to simplify this for everyone via a settlement, but Kelly filed a suit.
