So everyone took the bait and reacted to LSU taking a coach from Ole Miss. But Florida

Florida fans showed up in Oxford wearing T-Shirts bragging about watching their next coach. They were in full force at Knox’s football game. They believed they had their man.

By most accounts it sounds like they did. Kiffin wanted to go there and be the next Spurrier but Florida shot them selves in the foot and messed it up

By most accounts? As in, Florida fans?
They truly believed Lane was going to go there all because he has a beach house in Florida and his ex-wife’s dad was buddies with Spurrier
Florida was out once Brian Kelly was fired.

Ummm….No
The LSU job came open and Florida found out exactly where they were in the pecking order.

I think he entertained the Florida job but he couldn’t ignore Saban and Pete Carroll telling him he’d be retarded to not take the LSU job.

Kiffin had wanted the Florida job for years and was in contact with them before LSU came into the picture. Florida messed it up from the start. They interviewed Kiffin before LSU, and it was a bad interaction. If Florida had just gone all in like LSU did with no strings attached from the start, it's likely that Kiffin is locked in with Florida before LSU even gets an offer on the table. I'd rather him be with LSU than Florida. Get shite on Gators and enjoy your next Sun Belt coach

Florida had a signed MOU from Kiffin, he signed it the week before or of the Florida game.
He could have very well had one with LSU as well.

Another BS story put out by Florida fans.
LSU was on the phone with Kiffin the same Sunday they fired Kelly, so no, he didn’t sign a MOU with Florida 2-3 weeks later.
Florida is just lucky that Keith Carter held onto his desperate hope that Kiffin would stay for so long that they removed themselves from the race and settled for Sumrall, ultimately leaving Ole Miss with…Pete Golding

And at the end of the day, Oxfart is still a dumpster
