Episode Synopsis

Brian Kelly, former Louisiana State University football coach, is set to drop his lawsuit against the university after receiving a full contractual buyout. The university initially characterized his firing in a way that could have avoided paying the full buyout, but a formal written notice of termination without cause was delivered, making the university fully responsible for the estimated $54 million buyout. Kelly, who was fired after four seasons with a 34-13 record, must now actively seek new employment and document his efforts due to a duty-to-mitigate provision in his contract.The Daily News Now! - Every city.
