We spend that much every year and have been the 3rd best program in the SEC since Kiffin arrived.



You have yet to play in a playoff and yet to play in a championship game.


Texas has done both Brian Kelly has done one, Josh heupal has done one.

Yeah, but your Ole Miss. You've never won shite and never will. You're going to lose in Starkville next year because this is what y'all do. Just except it. You're the biggest kid at the kids table. It could be worse... I guess.

I know it’s difficult for a Kentucky fan to understand how program building works in football but we will continue to recruit at a high level every single year.

We will continue to spend $10M every year because we have one of the best collectives in the country.


If you're just going to spend $10M every year, why did it take two years of planning to do so this year?

So... exclude that option? As in don't do it? Okay, we'll win in Starkville next year. Hell, just for kicks, we'll beat LSU's arse in Oxford next year as well.

Austin Simmons

Came in cold against Georgia and led a 80 yard TD drive and completely shifted the momentum of the game.

Does that high level include losing as 17 point favs, at home, to a god awful Kentucky team and it ruining your entire season?

If LSU is mid tier, that puts Ole Miss in the shite tier.

Lol yeah this was suppised to be their year. Their boosters are rich but not wealthy. Smart money is to wait to see how this plays out then invest. The rich blow their money the wealthy invest. OM wont be able to keep it up much like most the oxford and short wearing dorks in the grove

I'd much rather spend 10M get some good wins, get some good players, go to a bowl game...than to be a Kentucky fan. Yall spent 9 million dollars on your coach...which is good for 9th in the country to only win 1 SEC game, lose all your players to the portal and no hope whatsoever to field a good team in 2025
