f you’re saying Alabama can hire the LSU coach but LSU can’t hire the Texas A&M coach then you’re even dumber than i thought.



Clark Lea, Elko, Lashlee, Cignetti all could have left for better jobs and didn't. I'm not saying many coaches would leave a situation like LSU for Bama, but you currently employ one that would.

You actually think Ole Miss fans should be grateful to Kiffin for leaving them when they are going to the playoffs for the first time ever?

for leaving them


he wanted to stay through the playoffs and they said no

it honestly would have been smart for them to allow it and call LSU’s bluff or risk a Penn State situation.

You must have missed the memo. DUI Pete has been the mastermind behind their success all this time.

If he abandons LSU in the middle of a playoff run, there is no end to the dog cussing LSU people will send him out with.

I think that both Lane and Ole Miss could have handled the exit better, but at the end of the day I think Ole Miss should be grateful to Kiffin and wish him well.
He coached there for 6 years (average SEC coach is at job for 3.5-4 years)


Because he left directly for Ole Miss' rival. People at LSU were going nuts when Saban went from the NFL to Alabama. Now, imagine if Saban had done that directly from LSU. That's what you're seeing in this situation.

Ole Cuck should consider themselves lucky they even got any success in the first place.

98% chance they have peaked for at least the next 15 years.

Well, three other teams, including OM were willing to pay him all that money as well. In all honesty, there’s so much shite being spewed between Lane and Ole Miss right now, I really feel like the truth really falls somewhere in the middle. It’s just like a really bad breakup. You know how that goes, hearing one side of the story during a break up and it’s always never quite the full picture.


Made perfect sense for Ole Miss to pay him that. He had elevated their program to places it hasn't seen in over half a century.

You're the team that can win a championship with almost anybody right?
Two times in a row now you've spent out the wazzoo for a big splash hire. The splash was there last time and then the slow fade. We'll see.

that you somehow think there’s a step up from LSU to Alabama the way there is from Ole Miss to one of those jobs is where you’re wrong.


Kiffin would leave mid-season as LSU to go to Alabama. Sorry but it is a step up above pretty much every other job. But i think he is safe at LSU. Bama doesn't want him.

Best season in Ole Miss history and they shite on Kiffin. Just remember, Kiffin wanted to coach the Rebels in the playoffs. AD said, “No Lane, We are going with Mayor Pete and his perm instead.”

Exactly right.

LSU and Alabama are equals as HC opportunities go.
