Back when the Lane saga started, LSU fans were roasting Ole Miss for not letting Lane keep coaching through the playoffs and saying they were totally fine with it on their end. But now they don’t even want position coaches focusing on the playoffs instead of the portal.

Can we all be adults and admit that LSU and Lane either assumed Ole Miss would lose the first round or planned to ditch Ole Miss halfway through giving them no shot of assembling a new staff?

There is just no way LSU fans would be fine with Kiffin being in Oxford instead of portal recruiting. And that is fine! I just want yall to admit the offer was never made in good faith.

I think all that talk was propped by this perception that Ole Miss would for sure not go anywhere in the playoffs. Which was very weird, because their only loss was @Georgia and they were competitive that game.
Same reason why the coaches lending also happened. The truth is they should have all just cut ties. Clean break. Until they fix the CFB calendar, it is what it is.

Now they're one game away from the championship game and not that big of underdog.
