Was thinking the exact same thing.

If any program hires Lane, they deserve to be burned to the ground.

Are you okay with the threats the Ole Miss administration made to him? If so What's truly the difference? It was always going to end messy. Tough situation for all parties IMO.

I really don't care about a twitter post, just being real. These things are always going to be messy when a coach leaves, especially to go to a rival or conference school. Lane wanted to coach that team (have his cake and eat it too, of course). We are also entering a different time in CFP when there are going to be more teams in playoffs and even more in the future - this will happen again, and likely more than once. Ole Miss AD decide they didn't want him to coach in the playoffs. Then they are all going to get after each other. Both will start trying to make each other look bad. All part of it.

I don’t think anyone has a problem with Kiffin wanting to coach the team in the playoffs. But surely you don’t a have a problem with the athletic director and administration’s response? Are you ok with the ultimatums or threats Kiffin gave to the Ole Miss administration? Are you ok with the ultimatums he allegedly gave his coaching staff to be on the plane or else?

They’ve always been a problem.

Even not being close enough to it we can't act like he didn't made it out to be a huge deal when it was clear as day he was gonna leave. We act like him tweeting from his dog's twitter account about going to the SEC championship isn't out of touch? He never thought stringing along an entire fanbase wasn't gonna backfire? Be straightforward about your decision and that's it, go out classy. In his tweet announcing his departure he's litterally throwing the AD under the bus.

I have no problem with him wanting to coach Ole Miss in the playoffs. The rest of the "reported" stuff. I'm not close enough to it. Do I believe all of it? Of course not.

Classy guy, it’s the AD’s fault he decided to have these conversations during the season and leave a school at the end of the regular season. Also, what guardrails did he want to have in place to protect this program while he was trying to build his staff and finish recruiting at LSU? I’m sure the players just loved him so much for doing this they were all just begging the AD to let good Ol’Lane to finish this historic season with his guys.

Cmon. Is this a tongue-in-cheek post? You can’t possibly be defending Kiffin’s method of exodus.

Jk Pat Fitzgerald from Northwestern next HC for Michigan State

Gerry Hamilton to be hired as the next HC of the Michigan State Spartans

These coaching changes are always difficult ... but the Ole Miss reporters and fans are such a classic on this one. Just too much butt-hurt to look logically that LSU is a much better long term program for a coach.

This is great guys:

Guess we will see if they take the “conference championship games won’t be used against you route” for real

I like our recruiting base: Texas, Southern California, Florida, Louisiana, Georgia....we are good!

Per the reporter who cited Ludacris in Dr.Dre's hit song "Housewife". It's also reported that the announcement of Golding becmoing the head coach and his meeting was very well received by the players.

I think LSU just hired their james franklin. 10 win seasons year n out, explosive offensive, But inability to field a competent championship level defense, inability to win big road games (didn’t win a RANKED road game till the sixth year) and coyote ugly losses Iike our florida one.

Georgia blowing out Bama would help us. If Bama is blown out by more than 25 points, then they would be at 3 losses and their worst loss would be against FSU, who just lost to Florida, our worst loss. Tech beating BYU regardless of margin of victory is going to knockout BYU from the discussion as they haven’t played anybody.

UNC will be a tough game. Rori wore out today. Preston looks active on the sidelines, time to get her back in the groove.

He’s following the Kiffin family tradition of being left on the tarmac.

No words needed…

Wild times

I thought Chris Kiffin was supposed to be on the plane with Lane to BR?

On paper yes it looks more difficult, especially with the extra SEC game. Will have to see how all the teams with new coaches end up playing out. @LSU will be tough. Lane will retain a lot of talent and bring in his own.
