It’s not the way UCLA, Penn State, Florida, Arkansas or Auburn fire coaches.

Bruh, Auburn tried to start rumors about Harsin having an affair with his assistant to avoid his buyout. That happened like 3 years ago.

Florida also refused to pay McElwain's buyout when they fired him over some conjured up bullshite

quote:

---

When UF officials initiated negotiations that Sunday, they advised McElwain's agent, Jimmy Sexton, that they intended to fire McElwain with cause and believed they did not owe him any part of his buyout because McElwain failed to alert university officials about the alleged threats against players and coaches.

McElwain's wife was allegedly the recipient of a threatening message on Facebook, and McElwain himself also allegedly received threatening messages but did not provide evidence of them to Florida officials. At least one player allegedly received vulgar and racist messages that resulted in the player's mother contacting Florida coaches. When pressed by Florida officials to elaborate or provide additional details, McElwain declined. He has told people close to him that he regrets talking about the threats publicly and that he did not want to drag family members, players or staffers into further controversy.

No matter what all of the CBK loyalists have to say.

this isn't a thing, Just because he's an a-hole doesn't mean you can just say a bunch of bullshite and it just becomes true

Lawsuit against the State of Louisiana is a brilliant move by CBK and his attorneys

---

he only had standing to sue one party. That party was the BOS, who happens to be a state entity. His contract was with the BOS, not the University, so that's who he sued

Agreed. And before everyone rains downvotes onto me, it's ok to be very conservative but also think that Jeff Landry is an imbecile.

Hopefully y'all in Louisiana primary his dumb arse next cycle.

You failed to respond. Failure to respond typically results in judgment for the other side.

I don't blame you for quitting.

---

You basically regurgitated the same thing you were responding to.

Failure to respond to a response results in a default judgment? Where do you think you practice law bud?

It's really painful to argue with a dumb person who doesn't know they're dumb

But I'm still waiting for you to tell me how firing someone for cause, in and of itself, is impugning their character.

Here's a link to his contract. Under II-A-1, the bases for cause are provided. There are a lot of them. Many of them are very broad. Many would not involve impugning his character.

That's a lot of words to type out to acknowledge that I'm right.

quote:

---

That lawsuit seeks a declaratory judgment that LSU has no grounds for firing Kelly “for cause.”

---

And you don't sound like you know what a declaratory judgment lawsuit is :lol:

Kelly is seeking a judgment to declare whether Kelly was, in fact, fired without cause by Woodward. His claim is he was fired without cause. LSU, for whatever reason, is trying to say he wasn't actually fired by Woodward but now he's being fired for cause. Kelly is seeking this judgment as a preliminary issue because that will dictate whether he is contractually obligated to receive his buyout or whether he will need to file a subsequent wrongful termination lawsuit.

Nonetheless, how exactly do you think one gets to a defamation claim from a declaratory judgment lawsuit like this? (I'll give you a hint. You can't)

quote:

---

Even if you don't agree with that, their response to the lawsuit will assuredly be public. At that point they claim to have cause or not.

---

They can make a claim that is both true and not grounds to terminate him for cause. That wouldn't get him to his burden of defamation

Kelly wanted more than was offered apparently

Kelly filed for divorce and "separated" in 2023, and they reconciled and non-suited the divorce a few weeks later.

Now people are trying to gossip about why.

People also think that cheating on his wife would violate a morality clause in his contract which is a laughably stupid idea.
