"Auditor: LSU overpaid Brian Kelly by more than $1M in 2022":

Business Report said:
An audit of LSU’s athletics department found that head football coach Brian Kelly was overpaid a little more than $1 million last year.

Business Report said:
The report released this week by the Louisiana Legislative Auditor’s office says the university began making supplemental payments to Kelly's LLC in May but also continued to make supplemental payments to the coach directly, resulting in monthly double payments until LSU management became aware of the error in November.

They were paying his salary TWICE, and no one noticed for HALF A YEAR!?

Business Report said:
State auditors noted multiple errors related to coaches' pay by the university’s athletics program last year. The school also misclassified nearly $6.7 million in severance payments as coaching salaries, benefits and bonuses on its Statement of Revenues and Expenses and omitted nearly $140 million in debt on its NCAA Financial Report.

Is this incompetence, or is this corruption?!

Respect where it's due, though: Brian Kelly definitely overperformed and had a great first season, so I guess he was worth this "bonus."

:lol:

It's corruption. How the hell you going to get double pay and not mention it to anyone? Does Brian Kelly have integrity? If the double pay was incompetence, he certainly does not.

All could have been avoided if it were classified as a "bonus". I find this ironic. For years people complained that college players were getting the shaft while coaches earned millions. Now players are earning millions and coaches are getting in trouble for questionable benefits?

“Double or nothing.”

“Alright, hookers and blow in the first week of 2023 and it’s a deal.”

“Deal!”

:yes:

If someone wants to pay me extra money, I’m not going to stop them.

Wait did you just ask if an SEC head coach has integrity?

I don't even know you anymore.

Yeah but if your paycheck doubled you would ask questions because you're smart enough to know they will come looking for it at some point. Or at least I THINK you're smart enough........starting to rethink that comment now.

Last year I got divorced, moved, sold my house, quit my job, got remarried. It’s been a crazy year. Don’t have any sort of television other than Netflix/Hulu/Amazon Prime. So I’m stuck with minor league college football.

The past two years have been a shit show for everyone. It sounds like you’re at the apex of the shit show. Anyways just get back in the saddle my friend. Getting pussy is a great therapy. Oh get YouTubetv and you can see a lot of Division One sports.

Yes, the sex/BJ on the daily has been amazing therapy. Happier with the new wife and the new job, so there isn’t much more I can ask for.

His paycheck wasn’t doubled, it was 10% more and he could have chalked it up to income tax difference.
