Woodward signed Kelly to a 10-year, $95 million contract back in 2021 when it lured him away from Notre Dame, where he won 92 games, four bowl games, and appeared in one BCS national championship game, which was later vacated. In three-plus seasons, Kelly had a 34-14 record with three bowl wins but zero College Football Playoff appearances.
Interim LSU AD Verge Ausberry is making a bold College Football Playoff claim after Scott Woodward and head coach Brian Kelly are out.
Before he arrived at LSU, Kelly, 64, had restored the shine to Notre Dame football after years of decline. He was a driving force behind modernizing the program and making it a consistent national contender for the first time since Lou Holtz in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
