When is the last time someone became the new head coach with this much smoke?

Honest question because I truly don’t remember.

When was the last time everyone was calling for a school to hire someone, it was super obvious it would be them, and it actually happened?

I said that earlier today to a coworker. Anytime leaks come out like kiffin will sign with auburn after the egg bowl it typically torpedoes any deal.

It damn sure wasn't Lincoln Riley to LSU. It's all a smoke screen for the real swinging dick.

I don't think Kiffin is going anywhere right now but I do think his agent is making him a lot of money with all this stuff

Kiffin would be better off staying at Ole Miss, IMO.

Kirby Smart is one... he was basically the only candidate and they barely ran a search.

Saban was another. Everyone thought it was going to happen and Saban said publicly it wasn't, then it did.

Maybe Richt to Miami? That came after.

Yeah Richt is definitely the answer.

I guess the better question was, how often has it happened (% wise)?

Just trying to decide if I should be mourning the loss of Kiffin yet or not

What this contract rumor did was also serve to potential coaching candidates that we can pony up the money.

Even if Kiffin leaves…..the money is there. And if kiffins buyout was as large as it had been rumored…that’s another massive payday for the university.

You can’t link something that’s not public dumbass. That’s why he said “rumored”

The word “rumored” was quite literally used for a reason, you idiot.

Me: “it’s rumored….”

You…..typing on a keyboard struggling that’s to hang on because of your uncontrollable drooling: “SHOW ME A LINK DAMMIT!!!!”

It's likely the new contract has much stronger buyout terms... if he doesn't sign it in the next week that's very bad news for the landsharks...
