December 1Dec 1 LSU’s fanbase is a lot like Auburn’s, just crazy in a different way. Auburn’s expectations are completely unreasonable, and they keep mowing through coaches. LSU is not a blue blood, but they can bring in tons of talent. They just keep interfering too much. Both schools have too many people who want to be in charge Kelly was an awful hire. Kiffin is a much better hire. He’ll be able to fit in much more easily, and they’ll love his trolling. But he’ll be expected to win.

December 1Dec 1 I don't know if the student reporter was the first to throw "you can't turn a hoe into a housewife" onto Kiffin, but that is going to follow Kiffin at every turn. The best part is that he's now shown that it bothers him so the rest of the SEC is turn it up to an 11. And forget it just being signs at Gameday, he will hear it personally from strangers.
December 1Dec 1 1 hour ago, Helobious said: I did say “arguably”. I can’t think of another coach that’s won at so many different schools and done more with less at a place like Ole Miss. He’s absolutely in the conversation. He went 7-5 at Tennessee, then got fired in an embarrassing way at USC. He’s since had two good seasons at FAU and four 10+ win seasons at Ole Miss. He isn’t yet smelling someone like Spurrier’s jock let alone actual GOAT candidates.

They put together arguably the greatest team ever assembled with an absolute fuckin regard at head coach and yall think that somebody who won 11 games at ole Miss is going to flame out then get fired like Kelly. Wasn’t aware they did that during NIL. My bad. Nobody is stacking talent like that now. If you’re not starting you’re leaving in many cases. Especially if you’re a 5 star.

They all got NIL, kiffin could absolutely run the table with an offense loaded like that. I understand your point and I will pull back my point about 2019. They clearly cheated before cheating was ok.

December 1Dec 1 I was starting to feel bad for Marty Smith. The longer it went on, it kind of have that Geraldo opening Al Capone's vault feeling to it.
December 1Dec 1 Kiffin has a way of randomly not showing up for a game out of nowhere. Dont know if hes gonna be able to go the distance in the playoff. Assuming that 25mil number for NIL is real year over year, he's gonna recruit lights out. Kelly was a bad personality fit at LSU, Kiffin is a great fit. That fanbase loves a shit talking shit head. Especially if he can hold onto a good DC, they're gonna be a tough out.

December 1Dec 1 Finebaum just said in his show that Sark is at Kiffin’s press conference location in Baton Rouge and it’s not surprising because those to “are close”. Kinda figure Sark should be calling recruits and figuring portal needs.

December 1Dec 1 16 hours ago, Tex Pete said: But what could he have done differently? If he had announced a decision sooner, he would have had to leave his team and maybe cause them to lose games as a result. He could have announced right after the Egg Bowl and shit on his team’s celebration. Ole Miss could not have allowed him to remain on the payroll, coach and recruit to their revival from inside their building. He should have announced earlier and left with the same result. There’s just no good way/time to leave. I fault OM for allowing the drama to go on as long as I did.
December 1Dec 1 17 hours ago, Hook1997 said: Kinda true.. There’s nothing you can do in this situation that’s good for both teams. Do he and Lane share the same agent?
December 1Dec 1 I think he’ll kill it in lsu. He avg 500 yards a game at ole piss and recruited well there. LSU has always been a power and recruits easily too he will get better talent. No fucks given if he’s an asshole. It’s gonna be a problem for us in recruiting when we regularly compete for lsu guys. Unless players just absolutely fucking hate him

December 1Dec 1 I have been someone who thinks that Lane is, on balance, good for cfb and brings a somewhat dumber version of Leachness to the game. i don't really care about him going to lsu from ole miss too terribly much...though I still can't believe that this year of all years, where no one is really all that good in the playoff and ole miss has just as good a chance as anyone, that he wouldn't have navigated the process a bit better. But two things kind of jump out at me...one is that if you just watched how things went down with Kelly, how in the ever loving fuck can you ever get in bed with these scumbags? Louisianans, while entertaining to observe like zoo animals, are the lowest form of life on the continent...the entire state is effectively one big racketeering joke. From the lsu perspective, I am not looking at what Lane did at Ole Miss and FAU, I am looking at what he did at Tenn and usc as they are more comparable jobs. ole miss is like texas tech in that you can get away with being kooky and a troll and all that. Not sure it works at lsu. Guess we will see. It is completely true that you can throw a rock in Louisiana and hit four NFL defensive linemen. But it is not like that was not true at USC as well. We will see.
December 1Dec 1 This whole thing is really shitty. Whoever is responsible for the current rules sucks. The rules surrounding the calendar created this situation. Both parties did what they had to do, which sucks for the coach, the institution, the players, the coaching staff, everyone involved. Lane Kiffin might be a giant piece of shit; the Ole Miss AD might be a giant dumbass, but neither side is at fault for how this played out. It's really unfortunate and should be changed immediately.
December 1Dec 1 It's all because of the 30 day portal window when you fire a coach. They can't really take that away because then schools will go back to firing coaches the week after signing day.
December 1Dec 1 5 hours ago, Helobious said: Get ready for some epic fucking title games between LSU and tOSU the next few years. Day and Kiffin are arguably the 2 greatest CFB coaches of all time, now both with keys to unlimited resources and talent rich programs. This is bad for us but good for the sport. It will also cool the coaching market for a bit as no one is going to want to pay these insane sums just for CFP exits each year. You are finally using your powers for good. I, for one, applaud this development.

Kinda figure Sark should be calling recruits and figuring portal needs. Sark has a habit of taking Lane’s sloppy seconds when it comes to jobs (USC OC, USC HC, Alabama OC) so maybe Sark is getting a feel for the LSU admin as a back up plan just in case.

Leave the 30 day portal window for players whose coach was fired. That way, if schools try to fire a coach the day after signing day then all the kids they just signed can jump ship. Does that fix it?

No because then schools will stick with the new trend of firing coaches in season so their players don't have anywhere to transfer which is what caused this shitshow. I haven't spent a ton of time thinking about it, but there doesn't appear to be an easy solution. Edited December 1Dec 1 by kevwun
December 1Dec 1 If Lane went 8-4 for the next 10 years at Miss, they build a statue and name the stadium after him. 8-4 for 3 years gets you fired at LSU.
