Sure. Your coach also has a massive, guaranteed contract. He may have just stayed at Washington otherwise. That isn't exclusive to Kelly.


I didn’t say it was. I was responding to LSU fans who argue money had nothing to do with Kiffin leaving Ole Miss for LSU. Of course money had something to do with it. Any rational grownup would understand money is one of the considerations when considering a job change.

The person you were replying to didn't say anything about money. Money isn't even relative to this argument because both Florida and Ole Miss were offering the same money.

How was Ed Orgeron rated before he went to LSU?

LSU fans have been bragging for six months that they were spending more on NIL than any other suitors. One of the supposed reasons Kiffin took the job is that LSU committed to spend $40 million on NIL. So yes, money was a consideration. It is amazing you are still trying to argue that money didn’t have anything to do with it.

You were talking about coach salaries. Why move the goalpost?

Nick Saban told Lane that you go to LSU if they offer you,



Is their any quote from Saban proving he told Lane this?

I don't believe so. If he didn't say it, he's just letting Lane lie about it publicly.

Probably.

Just depends on if Saban is fine letting Kiffin put words in his mouth or not.

Of course. Absence of evidence is in fact, evidence.

At least as high as he was after LSU fired him. Man, people here talked like he was one of the worst college coaches ever after LSU fired him. I seem to remember a whole thread devoted to where he should be ranked on the list of all time worst coaches.

Indiana winning a Naty says all we need to know about the change. They were a really bad program but in this new era anything is possible. It’s an amazing story

Because this is what this rat does. If he gets in a corner he chews his way out of defending it.
