It's time to stop being a high school and pump money into the program to show him you're serious. He may not jump to Auburn, but he's waiting for a blue blood to come calling.

Yeah. A coach is going to care more about stadium size than getting paid $7.5 million a year

We invested heavily in a renovation and Kiffin asked for it to be delayed.

other schools will pay the same and invest in building a competitive program.

This article says the west side will be done by 2026. Too long for Kiffin. He gone.

Everyone has said that the last three years. He’s coaching 6 different college teams and 2 NFL teams according to the rant

That is the opposite of what we should do. Any program prioritizing facility upgrades and not NIL are idiots

If Kiffin leaves Ole Miss for Auburn it will be 100% because of the Mannings

They don’t fill the one they have now. Just make it nice.

Our lowest attended game was 90% full against a cupcake. His issue wasn't attendance. It was students leaving early against shitty opponents.

3/4 of the stadium is very nice. The west side is what needs help but Kiffin wanted to focus on NIL because recruits aren't interested in stadiums anymore.

Adding more seats does what exactly?

Nothing wrong with Ole Miss stadium. Don't expand for the sake of expanding. We built a upper deck that is perhaps filled once in five years.

NIL & Coach’s pay > stadium capacity. Stadium capacity is probably not even in the top 10 of things coaches worry about when taking a job.

So it will be 50% full instead of 80% full?

This. Boosters should be getting told to invest some of their money into NIL funds rather than giving all of it to the AD.

Stadium size doesn’t matter. Kiffin will never win a natty at Ole Miss because he can’t get enough 4 and 5 star recruits there. Waiting for little Nicky to retire and be the next head coach in gump land.
