He doesn’t seem like the guy who wants to settle. He wants to win a NC. Eventually you gotta make tough choices and figure out if what you’re doing is working or if it’s time to move on. It’s up to Lane but he’s going to move on to where he feels he can win.

And... over that same time period... LSU has?


No, that's why one coach has been fired and another is on the hot seat.

Ole Miss' ceiling has nothing to do with LSU, btw.

You don’t know he can’t win a title in Oxford. Is it harder than Florida; absolutely. I think he can do it there.

Let’s say you ask a hot girl on a date, and she starts her reply with I’m flattered that you find be attractive…..you know you are getting shot down. Maybe intonation makes this Kiffin reply come across differently, but he has to know how that answer is going to come across in print.

Whoever drew Ole Miss as their permanent is hoping he leaves unless, of course, they also drew UF.

What happens if Florida doesn't get any of the names on their list?...what if your top talented players enters the
portal? the same goes for all these other schools firing their coaches you can lose them and your recruiting class..can you imagine Florida announcing ...Coach Gundy has a tremendous record of exciting offense that we were looking for ..

He's never been flattered in his life, you have to be humble first.

Yeah he kept saying “no comment” in 2022 when there was weeks of speculation about him going to Auburn. It tanked the back half of our season. If he does the same shite this time then y’all can have him. It’s the only time I’ve legitimately wanted him gone



I get the logic I guess... if you always refuse to talk about it during the season you don't set yourself up having to lie about anything, and at least in theory you're trying to keep the focus of your players on the current season because nothing any different is happening... I said "no comment" last year and I'm still here, so what's the worry? But what he doesn't understand is that all this says to anyone is that you are going to leave eventually...

I like how the whole family likes to do a little trolling.

I just told my girlfriend I love her and want to spend the rest of my life with her…

Her response… “ I'm flattered, and I don't take that for granted”.

Again, in today’s college football landscape, if you’re in the top 25-30 in team talent, you have a shot. There’s not a clear separation in programs anymore.

That’s is simply not true.
