catching up from last night......and it looks like the fear porning went strong here. There's a ton of insinuations based on feeling going on.

Can someone show me ANY proof that the family actually toured both schools on behalf of Lane? Landry is dating the LSU LB and Knox has been recruited by LSU. Those are the two that supposedly went to BR. Who gives a frick about Layla going to Gainesville? She has history there and probably friends as well. Can anyone confirm if this is the first time she's been to Gainesville this year?

Can anyone confirm that Lane has left the players in the dark like he has the fans or are you just making an assumption? Can anyone confirm that the practice was bad because of Lane's distraction or did we just have a shitty first practice of a bye week?


Don't get me wrong....I'm not trying to pump sunshine and convince people that "all is well"....but this thread has devolved into 247/Spirit-levels of panic.

There are two things that seem to be pretty solid
1: Lane doesn't know what he wants to do
2: Sumrall wants to come here bad

So just let the cards fall where they fall. We trust Keith to make the decisions and he's going to do so with or without you working yourself up into a frenzy on a message board.

Yes the tours are well established across the board. Those happened.

Link me where it says they actually toured the AD's of the schools. The only things that I've seen were they were proven to be in Gainesville and BR.

But you can't post Neal or anyone who got info from Neal. He doesn't know shite outside of the Cubs and Bourbon.

Remember when the internet was convinced that Lane was on LSU's campus because of a far away picture Sunday night? That didn't exactly turn out well.

Neal never reported that. That was all just internet idiots. And you dont have to warn me about Neal. My disdain for him goes all the way back to when he first joined Rivals and kicked Dave Childers to the curb and to some point when he was in Alabama as a journalist

I will pas along this because it seems you were right about the echo chamber thing.

quote:

There's been a lot of talk about how this is affecting the Manning Center. We pick up things, but they are anecdotal to certain players or coaches, so I'm hesitant to put an overall theme to it. I do know a few starters are frustrated by this and just want resolution, and I know a few coaches are frustrated because they have no more information than you do, and it's their livelihoods. There's a lot of talk -- including from good sources --- that some coaches have been informally polled about what they would do regarding the next stop. I believe it because of the people who told me, but I also think there's somewhat of an echo chamber right now outside of my best sources.

As soon as I saw all of the time stamps from the posts in this thread coming late last night....I knew that it couldn't have gone well.

Being on a message board that late on a monday is like the old saying "nothing good can happen being out after midnight".

I have been pissing off the Tigers on the coaching board questioning the lack of proof of this, but we know it all happened. Just getting them riled up.

Lane has basically played this where there is just one path out for him at Ole Miss to be the Ole Miss coach next season.

But do we though?

The Layla to Gainesville is kinda odd but once again….sounds like she has friends in Gainesville that she wanted to meet up with.

We already know Landry and Knox have been to BR this fall a few times.

Lane could have squashed they were not in those towns.

I mean it has been covered by respected national media and hasn't been refuted at all. If it was false, you would think there would be some kind of public denial but the only thing coming out is more and more confirmation that it happened. I'm not as worried about the visits. I really see that as a non-issue. What I care about is how Lane himself is handling all of this.

Don’t think you’re understanding what I’m saying. I never said they weren’t in those towns. I’m just asking for proof that they were actually touring on behalf of lane. The people supposedly confirmed to those cities already have links to those cities.

There really isn’t such a thing anymore.

But like I said….im not questioning them visiting those cities….im questioning the reason we’re being told.

The problem is the way he’s handling this is by not handling it at all. He’s told us many times that he does not address this type of stuff publicly until after the season. Obviously, none of us like that…..but we’re acting like this is some sort of surprise.

Well, it went very very public this week, so that is out the window and our own press needs to start pressing him for real answers or at the least, for some comfort on the way the Egg Bowl is being handled by asking him challenging questions. No more softballs.

The issue here is he’s clearly let all this inside the IPF and it’s self destructing because he being a jackass playing on Pat’s show like everything is fine.

The tours seem like the fishiest and most unlikely part of this whole story. There's plenty of photos of Kiffin family members in those cities earlier this year. But not a single picture from earlier this week? And what's the point of some 4 hour tour where you never get out of the SUV and never actually tour the facilities or have meetings? None of that makes any sense to me.

For sure. It definitely is a policy that sounds better than it is in practice. Unfortunately things don’t work as if they’re in a vacuum. We’ve now come to the same problem that we had in 2022 with Auburn. It’s public whether Lane wants it to be or not.

I would absolutely be better off if he would come out and say something along the lines of “yes, I am currently committed to this university; however, I would be doing a disservice to myself and my family if I didn’t hear out what another opportunity has to say”. I know that wouldn’t make a lot of people happy either but realistically, I’ve had that same level of transparency to my previous boss at my last job. There’s a certain level of respect that comes with doing that.

We’ve had more concrete proof of Gilligan’s three hour tour than those.

This will sound cheesy, but what of the children.

He has one kid at Ole Miss and one in HS in Oxford. Their lives are going to be impacted by all this, especially if he leaves. Maybe they are indifferent to it, money does buy some idgaf attitude to many.

Knox would be changing HS mid school year, as I cannot see him staying as a social option.

Landry might be able to stick it out, but probably transferring away for her Senior year. 3 year of friends would be lost with it.

Presley is completely isolated from all this at USC, no issues there.

I expected Lane to leave, and I even expected it to go down something like is has. Lane is Lane. In my mind however, I thought he wanted be that father figure here in Oxford and would be here until Knox graduates.

He is putting a major disruption into his kids lives at a young age. Children should not pay for the father's sins, but I fear they will. Nothing bad, just a change in what they thought their year would be. Lives uprooted and friends lost, I hope it is worth it for him.

You are not wrong. Not a single image of them or proof of life. Tail numbers of planes can be made private, that is the one item they did not do. Very interesting. It was if they wanted just one little nugget out there to be noticed, but why?

All of that is another reason why I don’t think he’s planning on leaving. It’s a really, REALLY bad look for him to either abandon his family here or uproot them completely after all that he’s said about them over the last year.

If he does that, it makes it publicly look like he really is a POS and we’ve far surpassed needing to put up with that. It completely erases the whole “Kiffin Rehabilitation” storyline.
