Bowls weren’t a huge thing before Paterno’s era. Case in point, Notre Dame’s first bowl appearance since 1925 was against us in the 1970 Cotton Bowl. The UPI didn’t even count bowl participation when determining their national title until 1974.
DeBoer more than doubled his salary and worst case gets about $90 million for his efforts with more sympathy than scorn from the world outside Tuscaloosa. Pretty good deal.
It’s still a great job and I’d be more than happy to leave Mississippi for Baton Rouge. I think most coaches see what that program has done this century, saw what a bad fit Brian Kelly was, and feel they too can lead them to glory. And keeping that talent home with no in state competition is a huge advantage few schools can offer.
I sure don’t. I’ll take USC over OU any day of the week. Now I would find it funny if he does leave USC for another land locked school in a second tier conference.
Um, he didn’t win. Pretty much like most Raiders coaches this century.

I think if CFB had a more sensible calendar we could better distinguish it. Which was my original point. Given the calendar there’s little time to make moves when won’t be detrimental to the other school.
And ole miss and their culture is not one I’ll cry for, either.
I couldn’t care less about Lane relative to any other coach who doesn’t work for us. I hope he fails miserably at LSU as it may open things up more for us in that state.
I’m just wondering how he’s so different than virtually every other coach out there. They’re all in it for themselves.
Let’s not get all in our feels over an ole miss coach leaving for LSU. Sheesh.
