Not that much of a clown anymore but he's an annoying last generation "epic" kind of funny guy (just like Leach) that totally sucks arse.

Will be interesting to see how long he sticks at Ole Miss. He's always had happy feet everywhere he goes.


Well, I think USC was probably the ideal place for him, but he got there WAY too early in his coaching career. Big program, Southern California to live in. I don't know if any SEC school, save perhaps Florida, would appeal to him geographically.

Of course, I could be wrong. He might end up at Alabama after Saban, or stick at Ole Miss for giving him a shot, or even replace Ed O at LSU (though that one seems unlikely)

I doubt he or USC want anything to do with each other. It will take Alabama, Ohio State or a program like that to draw him away.

Then again Kiffin is weird sometimes and likes doing what people don't expect. So he could stay in Oxford for an extended period of time just to get that reputation away from him

There’s a 0% chance Lane goes back to SC. That was a very public and ugly exit to end his previous stint, and Lane doesn’t seem like the type to let that go. I’d imagine he would prefer to beat them by 100 than coach for them again.

I don’t think he’ll stay at Ole Miss forever, but I honestly can’t point to a situation that would be better for him right now. I think he’s a college guy at this point, so the NFL doesn’t seem likely. He’s still abrasive, so it’s hard to imagine a big time program knocking on his door either.

Wherever he ends up, they’ll be more successful for it. He’s grown a lot as a coach since his days in LA. Media and fans alike want to call him a clown because he doesn’t play the part like they think he should, but honestly, Lane is a damn good coach that does things his way. He enjoys himself, so who’s to say that’s a bad thing? Call him a clown if you want, but people call Saban an arse too. It doesn’t mean either isn’t true and I’m not comparing them as coaches, but if they’re successful, I doubt they care what Michael Wilson has to say about it.

Lane Kiffin and Steve Sarkisian are the two brightest offensive minds in college football today.

I wasn't impressed.


That's because you've only been watching him about a month.

Less talent? We’ve been on probation with scholarship reductions. Did that also happen to the great and mighty Hogs?

It wouldn't bother me even a little if he comes to Bama when Saban retires

About 99% of them are.

Just look at your facilities. Not much money down there. Bunch of people that act like they got money but don’t even make over $100k

He's a troll but few people are better at scheming offenses.

And yet we still have vastly more talent than Arkansas and consistently out recruit y'all.

Wonder why that is. Oh cheating? But I didn't think we had money so that means we aren't actually cheating then. Must be the facilities, right?

When he's himself (when is he never not?) I think he's good at what he does. A clown? At times yes but a brilliant OC and a very good head coach. It wouldn't surprise me if he ends up at Alabama one day as the head coach. He'll be unstoppable then.

Consistently out recruit us?

Besides those two years of Hugh handing out cash and escorts we are always within 2-3 spots of each other.

State of MS does have a ton of talent but most of them cant count to 10.

Again OM is poor. Could possibly be the poorest school in the conference
