I don't think he's ever going to get a quarterback that's any better than Corral to come to Ole Miss. He hasn't really done much with him. His play-calling has devolved into something like watching a 13 year old play Madden football. Other than being good for laughs what's his upside really, would Ole Miss fans even care if Lane left now?

If he reigns in the ridiculous analytics and going for it on fourth down all the time he might turn out OK.

They are markedly improved since Matt Luke but the real trial is after those players are gone.

I agree. His act is now a sideshow. Going for it in the redzone last night when he could have kicked a field goal and made it a one score game was idiotic.

He can't get out of his own way. I don't see him having any lasting success as a head coach. No wonder Pat Haden fired his arse on the tarmac and Coach Saban put him out before the Natty.

He’s made Ole Miss almost relevant and won them games they wouldnt have a few years ago. It’s a win for them no matter what.

That being said, no reasonable OM fan should think he’s a long term fixture at OM. He’s most likely going to bolt soon while he’s still a commodity. If not, he’ll be fired once the shine wears off in the next 2 years or so.
He’s shown he can’t do much with a talented QB, he’s not going to survive the years where that isn’t the case, which is just a reality at coaching at somewhere that’s not Bama or Georgia.

It's not like they can reasonably do any better. Lane will have a job there as long as he wants it.

If he had any depth at all he’s sitting at 7-1 right now and favored in his last four games. I also think we are an attractive transfer destination for skill players in particular. He’s going to be fine.

He'll never be anywhere long. Why? His personality blows everything up. Football programs, his family, his reputation.

He's an impulsive but good football mind. He should accept he needs to be a highly paid coordinator under a strong personality at HC.

He'll go for it on 4th down until no one but Ole Miss wants his dumbass.

Defense seems to befuddle and confuse him. He has no idea how to handle it.













Oh, no, not the other team's defense. His own. The fact that he has one and it sometimes has to take the field just seems to make him really uncomfortable.

If Kiffin is still there this time next year I think a lot of OM fans would be surprised. He's proven time and time again that he cannot be trusted. And for the record, Corral had one of the best receiving corps in the SEC prior to injuries and a great backfield so it's not all him

Nah, Kiffy is such a good fit for Ole Miss. A match made in heaven. It is an end of time kind of thing.

Well... one can hope, anyway. LOL

It will be ugly for Lane if he’s still at OM and Corral is gone. He usually knows when to bolt.

This is a terrible take.

He hasn't done much with Corral other than take a guy who was backing up John Rhys Plumlee two seasons ago and make him a Heisman Trophy contender. I mean, other than that he hasn't done much with him.

This team was 4-8 less than two years ago. Kiffin's 10-3 over the last 13 games, with a chance to finish very strong in November--Ole Miss doesn't have to leave the state of Mississippi for the rest of the season.

Last night was a disappointment, but we're being killed by injuries. Still have a shot at a 10 win season. I hope Kiffin stays as long as he wants.

he's gonna have to recruit better athletes on defense. that's pretty much it, and it's a tall order.

right now they've had some shite luck with injuries at wr. guess he needs to recruit better there too.
