We were a dog to you too. How’d that turn out?

It was a game in the fourth quarter after you gave up 17 unanswered.

And we were 6 and 7. Gators are 16 slots behind you. (I know math is hard for Rebs; use your fingers.)

You boys bout to get a lesson.

Don’t feel like trolling today. For me it’ll be this weekend if Ole Miss shows up strong against Florida. If they come out flat I’m still gonna have my doubts, even though that can happen to a lot of coaches.

He’s checked off the maintain the team through the playoffs box, and he’s checked off a roster transition and beat Lane’s LSU box. I’m looking for consistency, and he just might show it

And he did not go out and recruit. He did act as the closer and was really good at that when players were ready to commit already, but just wanted to meet him

---

And maybe that's the case. I just haven't seen that said much until after he left Ole Miss.

*you* haven’t seen. That’s just because you previously did not have a vested interest in it. I couldn’t tell you how much Brian Kelly recruited. Couldn’t tell you how much Elko recruits.

Not many people know if a coach is a known recruiter unless he’s known as a recruiter. Orgeron and Saban come to mind. Lanes specialty was understanding how to work the portal and NIL. But the common misconception is that he was the ONLY person in the building who knew how to do that. There are others and most of them stayed.

Correct. But unless I see a bunch of commentary from Ole Miss fans about his lack of recruiting before he left you, pardon me for taking it with a grain of salt...

OK? This was all started by a comment about how Lane doesn't recruit, and I just asked for examples of it. You're instead telling me about how much Ole Miss's current staff also recruits. Again....OK?

“I didn’t see it so it didn’t happen.”

It wasn’t something that we were constantly repeating because we were still getting solid talent in the form of portal players. We didn’t complain because the end result didn’t warrant constant complaints.

But you’re all the more welcome to do your own little research and find any article from recruiting sites that speak on Lane as a recruiter. But here’s a bit of advice……if you don’t find anything, it’s because there isn’t anything to find……not because recruiting sites chose not to report on it. Surely some of your own recruiting and team sites have experts that have evidence of Lane being a solid recruiter. He’s held plenty of head coach and coordinator positions for several big named schools so it shouldn’t be hard to find.
