Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry joined The Pat McAfee Show on Thursday to talk more about the firing and buyout of former LSU head football coach Brian Kelly after a news conference featuring Landry’s remarks about the matter went viral the day before.
If LSU fires Kelly, his buyout requires the program to pay 90% of his salary through the remainder of his contract, which would be $52.3 million if he is fired after the season. If a move is made during the season, that would add 90% of the remaining $9.4 million he's owed for this season.
