Lane brought in 30 players last year from the portal who are performing quite well. ….70% of OM starters are transfers. I love how we are cleaning house.


Yep it was 100% Lane. Go ask Walter Nolen’s family, the Manning’s and a ton of other recruits. They will tell you it was all Lane personality that brought them there……

Couldn't have happened to a better program.

He's barely been the head coach for a month.

You’re being factually dishonest. He did not want to coach your team next year. That was the stipulation to being able to coach the team in the playoffs.

Tone starting to change on the LSU recruiting board, yall ok?

Kiffin went to LSU to be able to grab any player he wanted and the unlimited NIL, now yall talking about saving money and picking up diamonds?

Ole Miss has at least 6 posts on page 1 bitching about Lane and LSU and 0 about your next playoff game. That’s pathetic.

He was your fricking head coach, he decides who comes and goes. Do you not know how this works? Did you just learn how college football head coaches do things? Regardless of Lane’s personality he got people on campus. Were the Mannings out doing all your recruiting the whole time? What a joke.

But it’s really not. One down year in portal/recruiting does not mean the sky is falling.

This is a long term project. He should be there for 5 years minimum, right?

I mean, personally, your melts got old on day one. I just find it odd that your fanbase is so obsessed with Kiffin leaving for another school, that they completely lose interest in the upcoming playoff game.

What’d we truly miss out on? Soresby and Chambliss (who may not get eligibility and even if, may ride the hot hand to the nfl. I’d say greater than 50% chance he isn’t in CF next year). Long wayyys away. Nobody knew shite about Lacy or Chambliss this time last year. Lane knows how to scout.

I am glad we have 26 players, majority offensive players, leaving. As they were all horrible besides TreyDez Green, the Center from VT, and Harlem Berry if he can not fumble. Those are the only 3 I want starting on offense next year.

yall are tuckering yourselves out throwing money anywhere you can just to block Lane/LSU. I know it feels good now but running your program mainly out of spite is going to come back to bite you soon.

How do you think it works out?

quote:

Got to love seeing yall move these goal posts. Everyone bragged about the war chest we were bringing to sign a bunch of top guys. Now we out here shopping at TJ Maxx and Goodwill talking about using brasso to shine some shite up. I hope like hell everyone we sign turns out to be a beast no matter their portal ranking but this ain’t the BS we were sold.

Lane needs to go quiet on who he is going after. Then announce when deal is done

Or just throw some names out there he doesn’t really want and make Ole Miss pay for them too


Yall sound like you're losing confidence.
