Look at all the coaches that came here with that stigma, Miles and O had never won any championships, conference etc as head coaches. Saban had not even one a bowl game.

How’d ND do in the playoffs this year? How’s Freeman doing at winning big games?? Y’all got a Championship yet?

As I recall you started the year 0-2. You got to 10-2 with that soft arse schedule you always play. How about try joining a conference then run your damn mouth?

Maybe focus on keeping your house clean before trashing others.

a-hole!

People pointed out he couldn't win big games and such and all LSU fans would reply with was "melting", and he was going to be great, blah blah blah.

Oh this is such BS lol. And what were the threads when O was hired who won a national championship? What about Miles? Both were negative towards it as yall all were. Because Kelly didn’t work out has nothing to do with Lane’s success.

Yep, I haven't seen people melt this much since LSU hired Brian Kelly.
I remember...

I also remember the threads and posts about how LSU should have hired Kiffin.

And here we are...

There wasn’t nearly this many threads when LSU hired Kelly. There were threads here and there but not constant spamming flame threads from opposing fans. It’s a completely different level of melt.


Part of that is that LSU is doing the exact same thing with Kiffin they did with Kelly.

Hire an experienced coach with no great postseason success. Blame it on his previous school. Pay him an obscene amount of guaranteed money. Beat your chest over how many championships he will win at LSU.

This time was an especially messy train wreck. No school president. Fired your AD. Fired Kelly and introduced interim Wilson. ThenLSU announced you didn’t fire Kelly. Try to claim he was fired for cause and you wouldn’t pay his buyout. Overnight all LSU fans here became contract lawyers. Governor got involved and calls out LSU. Says they will never do that again. A month later they do that again. Along the way at every possible opportunity LSU stepped on their dick.

So yeah, there was lots of pointing and laughing.

Now LSU is struggling with recruiting and the portal. And LSU fans are still talking shite.

If you think the board calling out our coach for being a lowlife slimeball is validation of the hire then OK.

I’d tap the brakes a bit and see how LSU performs on the football field over these next few seasons but if one wants to judge message board activity and smack talk back and forth as the determining factor, then Lane to LSU has certainly been successful.

Everyone was scared because if he could do what he did at Notre Dame and get them to the playoffs, he was going to do wonders for LSU.


Let’s be real. Had he hired anyone at DC other than Matt fricking House he more than likely would have least one playoff run.

This is absolute truth. He’s been visibly lost on the sidelines more times than I can count when he was losing. And that didn’t start at lsu.

You do realize people who don’t even follow college football or even sports in general also think your coach is a scumbag right? Are they also melting?
