The firing of Brian Kelly shook the college football world. Kelly was shown the door just 3.5 years into his 10-year contract, and his buyout of $53.3 million is the second-highest in the history of college football. The exact details of his buyout are still in the works, as Kelly is "open" to reaching a settlement with the university.
Since his firing, Kelly has been quiet. Most coaches tend to post a statement and/or graphic on social media thanking the university and the fans after they are fired. But Kelly didn't do that - until today.
