There is not a bigger fraud in this conference than Lane Kiffin.

1-19 against P5 teams that finish with 9 or more wins ...

That is perhaps the most painful stat I've ever seen. When you think of Kiffin, he has no standout wins.

Damn good at tweeting though. Top tier tweeter. The best.

You think this is it for Lane? He'll never get another head coaching opportunity again?

He’s a top 50 coach.

He belongs at a Big12 or PAC school.

Houston Nutt and Hugh Freeze were better coaches.

Not made for the SEC.

That stat is fricking horrendous. OM actually thinks they have a good coach and that they’re going to beat LSU this weekend. Pretty funny stuff. He’s all talk and no true action so far. And what he did at the end of that game last weekend officially sealed it for me that this guy is not head coach material for the SEC. Did he really play to not get blown out like last year? Took his pretty little time that last drive since his D couldnt stop shite. Why wouldn’t he have sped it up and try to score 2 touchdowns with six minutes left in the game? One of the most fricked up things I’ve seen in a long time in a game. What a chickenshit.

I have said it in numerous posts on here, Kiffin is a great OC but he is NOT a good HC

He can scheme to have a great Offense, but the "in game" aptitude is what makes you a great HC and he just doesn't have it

My brother and sister went to Ole Miss and I know them and plenty of their friends who were all sweating their balls off at the end of a last season hoping that guy wouldn’t go. You know you were probably one of those guys too and if you weren’t you were in the very small minority.

That had implications way beyond Lane Kiffin. We would have been fine with another coach but we wouldn't have been fine with having a conference member steal our coach.

As for Kiffin being the biggest fraud, there's always Jimbo looming. At least Kiffin didn't give us a losing season with 5 star talent.

It is a pretty even race between him and Jimbo....what Kiffin did to UT though was inexcusable and there is not a program on the planet more fun to hate than UT....but what Kiffin did was wrong in any walk of life...

I mean, we lost to FSU by a pretty large margin and barely squeaked by Arkansas. This game could easily go either way.

He's a good recruiter. Not great, but very good. He doesn't seem to have what it takes to push those players to a big season.

When he first hit the coaching scene I thought he'd be a Saban type within 10 years. He's just kind of hanging around.

I disagree. He's been there for three full seasons and is well on his way to as good a three-year run as anyone at Ole Miss in 60 years.

this is cuck logic.

If a school can fire a coach at the snap of a finger, the coach should be able to leave just the same. There's a reason why buyouts are included in contracts.

We have a top 10 NIL program, and are paying a ridiculous amount for coaching salaries for a poor result.

Perhaps your siblings and their circle of friends are the ones actually in the minority.

Lane's insistence of trying to build a program from the transfer portal isn't going to work for actually setting the program up for long term success. Nor is hiring shitty coaches such as Weis Jr as OC and Garrison as the OL coach.

I think the problem is that he doesn't care as much about coaching the games as he does about building the team. At least that's what it's always seemed like watching him at UT, USC and now ole miss.

Like he runs out of steam not much after the season starts.

Not the same team that played FSU. I do think it will be a close game like Arkansas but I don’t think that Ole Miss has the running game or the defense to beat us.

He also led Ole Miss to win it's first 10 win regular season since the 60's and has beaten every team in the West at least once except Bama after taking over a crippled Ole Miss program. It's hard to beat teams that have more than 9 wins because they're used to Ole Miss being one of those 9.

Without a doubt, there are smooth-brains on this board who can't remember anything that happened beyond a few weeks ago.

Some of you are starting to see the light, agreed.
