That’s not true. He turned down job offers from other schools while at OM.

This time, he opted to take the promotion he earned.

By your logic no one should ever take a promotion with a new, better organization because of loyalty? What an imbecilic take.

Did you not see the way he left the program? He didn't even have a team meeting. He's a pussy.

He's not that self aware.

Lane built that team. Once that team of players are no longer his they will no longer be good. it's not a hard equation to solve.

I think he would feel like an idiot if Ole Miss manages to make the final.

But last night’s game was actually good for LSU. The offense looked really good, and we are of course taking most of that offensive staff.

I didn’t say Lane always jumped at the first offer made but there’s nothing unreasonable I said about Lane either.

There are people out there in all walks of life who are “rolling stones” and attracted to change and the next big thing vs. being content to settle down for the duration. And it’s not like Lane had to worry about his financial future had he stayed in Oxford.

If Lane retires from LSU years from now, I’ll be surprised. That’s not a knock on Kiffin, or LSU.

There’s just people who are like that, whatever their profession might be.

Leaving a team with a legit shot at a national championship

I hope for LSU's sake Kiffin doesn't become Bill Frieder II. That would have an impact on his work in Baton Rouge.

He is thinking he never should have tried alcohol and drugs that “one time.” Or dated Sally.
