Ole Miss was in a unique situation last year where they made the playoffs and had a great bracket to make a deep run.

Additionally, this became an extremely controversial move on the college football world stage due to the timing of it all. There was a lot of pressure put on those players; once they made that deep run and the whole college football world was praising their new coach, it made it extremely difficult for those guys to bounce.

None of the other coaches’ teams made a playoff run besides the Florida coach, much easier to get up and leave with them IMO.

No one stayed due to pressure. Perhaps, and I know this is a tough concept for LSU fans to consider, but perhaps some of the players enjoy Ole Miss and enjoyed playing for Golding as HC and believe in the vision he set forth.

Nobody in the right mind thinks that. Ole Miss was who they were because of Kiffin. Beforehand, they were the doormat of the SEC. They still have a good roster that was assembled by Kiffin so I’d be willing to bet that they’ll still be good this year. After 2 years, they’ll go right back to mediocrity just like they did after Freeze.

Like I said, tough concept for LSU fans to consider. Ole Miss is practically holding these players hostage I guess.

Who wouldn’t want to play with Chambliss? That fella was the best QB in the SEC and is somehow still underrated
