The same could have happened at Ole Miss if their AD hadn't made Kiffin and his other staff decide immediately and leave immediately.

Say what?

Kiffin played a game publicly for 3 weeks. Narcissistic piece of shite.

The guy with 2 national championships?

I'm sure UF fans would be thrilled.

At least he’s loose and looks comfortable. Crack a joke. Trying to be positive here

Come on CAW. Give him a chance. I think it’s a good hire.

Did he compare himself to Lane Kiffen?


That was odd to even bring him up.

He did exactly what he needed to do. There were 3 groups of people that he needed to impress, and he did a great job with all 3.

First is the boosters. A ton of them are pissed after the shite Gary and Scott pulled last week, and rightfully so. I am sure it’s not 100%, but most old white guys (aka our booster base) love that old school football enthusiasm.

Second is are the players he needs to recruit. That includes our current roster, current commits and guys who are in the portal. From early reports, those guys really liked it and connected with it.

Third was the fans. Everyone was worried that he would be a repeat of the Human Beta Blocker Billy Napier. He did a great job distinguishing himself from Billy. He said all the right things that show he was coached up on what they hated about Billy and he presented the exact opposite.

Most fans are probably like me right now, and will be in wait and see mode until staff hires are made and how the roster shapes up. But he definitely built up some good will.

Yeah. According to Sumrall, Lane and Sumrall decided he was the best fit for Florida. Just seems odd. I do think he could do well, I was onboard for Sumrall at Auburn.

bullshite. Kiffens a good dude. Hell of a football coach. Ole Miss, via there AD. fricked this up for the Ole Miss fans and, more importantly, the players. He could have easily allowed Lane to finish his job. Lane wanted that. He didn’t quit on THIS team, he was forced to walk out. They didn’t even let him address the team. How in the world can they think that will help them, going forward? Players leave teams every year now! The AD let down the players and the fans. Lane got “promoted” in the SEC. Now’s he gotta perform or else. Should be fun! Congrats, LSU.
