Decent odds Lane Kiffin cried behind closed doors today.

I'm sure Saban understands like I just said.
Even Kiffin himself privately gets it. He doesn't want that pressure, he wants to enjoy himself. He's that kind of guy and he knows it.

I'm glad Kiffin stayed in Oxford too. I want the SEC to have solid coaches all around

Kiffin’s dream job was USC. Old Miss is his bronze medal.

if that helps you. In reality it's unlikely more than 1 of them were even actually talked to by Bama. Deboer was probably second on the list, considering he was like 5-0 against the other coaches in consideration

Probably why USC was his actual dream job.

I would think even the biggest Ole Miss homer should at least be self aware enough to understand that Kiffin would be in Tuscaloosa right now if the job had been offered.


Why do so many of you all act as if you know Kiffin? I don't know him but I don't act as if I do. Lane already replaced a legend in Pete Carroll. Lane is in his late 40s but in coaching years he's like 90. Lane is building Ole Miss into something special. He doesn't need Bama. If Ole Miss keeps spending money like it is, in the NIL/portal era, Lane will make Ole Miss into a national championship contender.

Kiffin wasn’t approached. If he was he would be in Tuscaloosa by now

He didn't tell Bama no. Bama is not dumb enough to hire him and if they were he would be out in 2 years after not beating anyone. He had his shot at 2 big schools and couldn't make it at either.

I don't believe for one second Kiffin turned Bama down like that. Probably was more so mad that Bama never even contacted him about the job

Was it a booster's wife or Saban's daughter?

Yep. I doubt he got a phone call at all. Shouldn't have been a prick.
