After Kelly’s
Tigers knocked off Clemson on the road in Week 1, it appeared as though he had turned a new leaf in Baton Rouge. But a Week 5 loss at Ole Miss gave way to a Week 7 loss to Vanderbilt.
The final straw was Saturday night’s blowout loss to Texas A&M during a rare Death Valley night game. The 49-25 routing was enough for administartion to end the era.
Kelly’s overall record at LSU was 34-14, with a disappointing 19-10 record in conference play.
His buyout currently sits at 54 million dollars.
