re: Can't turn a hoe into a housewife, hoes don't act right

Seriously. It is what it is. Lane won't coach here forever. If he stays, great. If he goes, we’ll hire another coach and keep trying to win games. All of this speculation and doom-posting is sad in the grand scheme of things.

He’s the best coach we’ve had since Vaught and has us on the verge of competing for a national title. I get people being a little more invested after we’ve been starved and told this was impossible for us to do the last 50 years

I get that, but crying about it on a message board is embarrassing. That’s all.

It’s just a way for people to vent their frustrations. If that’s all it stays at, cool. But if it affects people in their actual lives I agree go touch grass

I’m not referring to you. Some people are losing their shite about it, and even tagging Lane in some absolutely psycho posts.

ETA: I guess I sort of consider Twitter a message board at times.

I'm pretty confident that we'll know what is going to happen prior to the CFP games (assuming we don't sh*t the bed in Starkghanistan). Keith said a few weeks ago that he wanted to get the contract done like what Indiana did, and for that not to have happened yet is what is more telling to me than any other the keyboard warriors throwing crap up against the wall to try to be "first" in reporting something.

If Lane is going to go, then he won't be coaching this team in the CFP and it will be a huge hit on the reputation that he's worked hard to rebuild. I did read an article with quotes from recruits that attended the FL game, and one of the recruits said that Lane doesn't talk to recruits about his future - which can only hurt recruiting at this point.

The whole thing is a circus, and in the day of social media, it just adds more fuel/speculation/rumors, and as a fan, it is certainly exhausting. A few weeks ago, I was nearly certain he'd stay - but with this having gone on as long as it has, I'm not so sure at this point.

The guy's record speaks for itself with what he's been able to do at Ole Miss. He's 54-19 overall at Ole Miss and 31-17 in league play. At a certain point, however, you have to ask if the merry-go-round with "will he or won't he" is worth it. He has full support of the AD, boosters, and a heck of a NIL, but even now, you're seeing boosters (Tyler Jordan with Realtree) even getting tired of it. We set a record for attendance this past weekend, and Lane went full snark about the student attendance for the Citadel game.

I get it - Lane isn't a normal person and I would certainly want him to remain as HC at Ole Miss. I think, however, the University is getting to the point where they are going to want a real commitment from Lane with any future contract that he may sign with us. With how the portal windows are setup and everything, if a coach bolts in December, then it really hurts the program and their ability to recruit. We have always given him everything he has ever asked for - if that's not enough for him, then that's outside of our control and we have to do what is right to protect the program and the momentum that's been built.

Either way, in less than 2 weeks, this mess will be resolved one way or another.

I think we may have imposed a date to make a decision on him prior to the Egg Bowl.

There is a picture but I don't like it and will not share it because it has to do with Knox. I think that kind of shite is way out of bounds and I'm not going to participate in that.
