He hires good people and lets them do their job? Any evidence of that yet? He’s been a head coach for 4 months.

I would slow down on the Elko comparisons. Pete would be very lucky to have half the success Elko has had so far


You have already made up your mind 4 months in that he is a drunk and an idiot when he has 2 playoff wins as HC. Your HC had to be put in rehab for coke but you seem to not care about that.

I'd bet a lot that you have a DUI on your record as well. Pete is a south Louisiana boy like a ton of people on this site.

And Golding has been out of the rehab for the same amount of time!

Yes, Pete has won 2 playoff games but that argument is ridiculously lazy because it lacks context. I will give Pete credit for righting the ship and not letting the outside noise distract that locker room but let’s not act like he built that team and got them there.

Also, one of those wins was against Tulane.

The Bama/OM circle jerk continues!

He built the defense. Built the defense that led the nation in scoring defense in 24. The O line coach who built the O line is still there. The offensive coach that handled the day to day on the offensive side is still there. The OC is from the Briles/Kiffin Tree and was sought after by multiple SEC programs. He was here for 2 years when the foundation was being built. A lot of the program is still in tact. A lot of what made Lane great here was the system around him by the university and staff. That almost completely is still in place.

Yall read Pete but think it is Luke and it is absolutely not anywhere close to the same thing.

The 2025 Ole Miss defense was fairly mediocre. The 2024 unit was elite.

Maybe but he's very inexperienced.

All of this remains to be seen.

Tulane has shut out LSU 13 times. The worst was 46-0 in Tiger Stadium.

The 2024 front 4 was elite. The secondary was atrocious.

The 2025 unit was more solid across the entire unit.

Maybe, but it was fairly mediocre across the board.

I believe they finished in like the high 40's in FEI where 2024 was top 5 in the country.

He was only given the HC job due to politics.


There weren't many alternatives at the time that moved the needle. We were going to hire Dave Doeren instead which would've been a better hire but not sure Lane happens then.

The only positive thing he did for us was getting fired 
And ya really can't even give him credit for that.
