Couldn’t believe people thought that was a realistic option


I’m fine with LSU looking like the “good guy” telling Kiffin they’re fine with him finishing out the season, but I don’t really want my new coach working for someone else.
quote:

It's not complicated either way. If he stays at OM he can plausibly deny everything, saying it was rumor mongering, nothing else


Except he’s had weeks to say that. Stay or leave, he’s been entertaining other job offers and has strung Ole Miss along.

What’s the good word chat?


Jerry Lawler is a pedophile.

Would you accept "Plane" ?


If there’s no other card with a different plane then “plane” is acceptable.

Would they insist on specifying for a biplane?

Willie has succeeded at every level, from junior college to Division I.


He’s also 65.

Willie is doing it again at UH


12-11 overall. 8-3 in year 2.
quote:

Nothing changed in BKs favor, and he dropped his own suit


The purpose of the lawsuit was to put LSU on record that he was fired without cause. If he’s dropped the lawsuit it’s because LSU went on record that he was fired without cause.

They could have done so on November 10th, avoiding the lawsuit entirely.

I fully expect the termination to be negotiated and a settlement reached removing the mitigation requirement. Basically rendering the last month of consternation on all sides moot.

don’t think Kelly has gone about this in a very respectable way and could have landed in this same position without creating a spectacle.


If an LSU representative truly brought up firing for cause in discussions, which I think is likely, then he handled it as well as needed.
quote:

Why? Because Kelly decided to throw a legal tantrum?


He got exactly what he wanted out of it and LSU looked bad from the outside during it.

Not sure how you can view this as a win for LSU.
quote:

Lol to all the guys on here that said “it will get settled”


It still may.
quote:

The whole ‘Louisiana is full of inbreds’ is such a lame and incorrect insult..


I do love one southern state throwing shade at another over inbreeding.

That’s a regional stereotype.
quote:

know a lot of y'all will say no one can a win a championship at OM, but what about his time at Tennessee


I’m not sure you know that he was only at Tennessee for one season. If you want to criticize Kiffin for Tennessee, then how he left is fair game. Not playing for a title in that one year doesn’t really strengthen your argument.

and USC, two teams that are loaded with money and have some the best facilities in the country.


Took over a team on probation. They would have played for the PAC-12 title in 2011 otherwise.
quote:

think even LSU could mange to put up 40 points on umass


I know it’s in your username, but let’s not get crazy here.
quote:

Explain this to me like I have been stuck on the CC board for a month. Dude deserves every dollar he can get but how does this occur when he is on a rookie deal? Genuine question.


What’s the question? The linked article explains it. There’s a $50 million bonus pool every season for players who aren’t eligible for arbitration and it’s allocated based on season awards and WAR.

Not true. Fans have shown on TD that whoever's on top nationally, that's their rival. Florida in the 90s, USC in the 2000s,, Bama in the 2010s and Ohio State in this current decade. Its a flexible disdain.


LSU fans dislike most other schools and hold a grudge better than most. But no LSU fan has ever considered Ohio State or USC a rival.

Disliking a program isn’t the same as considering them a rival. You’re talking out of your arse.

Do you spatchcock your Turkey


I’m not sure that’s legal in Texas.

Moscona said Kelly HAS to be looking for work, he can't sit and do nothing while collecting the buyout.


If he hasn't been terminated then he's under no duty to mitigate.
quote:

guess you didnt see the X post Lacey put out last week trashing Kiffin for his traitorous behavior


I didn’t see it, but a guy playing for his second team in 2 seasons doesn’t have much of a leg to stand on in this argument.

This is the perfect type of woman who should be in those mid-grade threads.


She may be mid grade, but sill a yes.
quote:

The contract is being terminated and those terms will eventually be negotiated.



The terms were already negotiated. They will most likely be renegotiated, but it's not required.

quote:

And is also under a duty to mitigate, which his lawyers are claiming he cannot do.


He doesn't have a duty to mitigate if he hasn't been terminated. This letter is an argument that the unclear status of his termination is causing him to be unable to find new employment.

It's really quite simple. If LSU wants this all to go away, they need to terminate him without cause. Brian Kelly would then be required to mitigate.

If Brian Kelly fails to mitigate then that could be subject for future litigation.
