Former LSU head coach Brian Kelly received a formal letter from the school on Wednesday informing him that the university was terminating his contract without cause, according to a report from Ross Dellenger of Yahoo.
The termination without cause means that LSU owes Kelly the full $54 million buyout as long as the former Tigers head coach adheres to the “duty to mitigate” clause in his contract that requires him to make a “good faith, reasonable and sustained effort to obtain qualified employment for as long as liquidated damages are due.”
