Listen "LSU vs. Kelly: Legal Battle Over Coach's Buyout"

Episode Synopsis

Louisiana State Universitys former football coach, Brian Kelly, has sent a letter to the university, accusing them of making it difficult for him to find another coaching job. Kellys lawyers claim LSU has no basis for saying he was not formally terminated or that there was a reason to fire him with cause. This comes after Kelly was fired in October following a loss to Texas A&M, with the athletic director citing performance issues. Kelly has since filed a lawsuit, asking a judge to declare he was fired without cause and is owed the full buyout in his contract. LSUs board of supervisors recently voted to authorize their new university president to send Kelly a formal notice of his termination, as the university actively tries to fill the head coach position.The Daily News Now! - Every city.
