Just worry about Auburn. We are happy paying Lane to win games and keep us in the top 25 year in and year out.
Well, that was my argument. You shouldn't have to pay top10 money for that.
We've talked this to death. I'm good to not talk about it anymore..

Top 10 pay for top 15 results is reasonable.
This seems obvious on its face.

Dammit, dude... you literally just said that pay is good and being ranked in the top25 is enough.
Now you changed it to top10..
Come on, man...

We have been finishing in the top 15.
We are paying a top salary.
You think we should be upset. Cool.
So, I assume you think of Ole Miss as one of the top 15 jobs in the nation. Right?
I mean if we are overpaying our coach then we have a top 10 kind of program I suppose.
I never have thought of Ole Miss as one of the easiest places to win or one with a ton of built in advantages over other programs.
I always thought we could be a consistent top 25 program with a good coach.
You clearly think Ole Miss should be able to pay Ohio State level salaries and get Ohio State level results.
You may be retarded.

Don't think I ever said that?
I said you shouldn't be proud to pay a coach top10 money if they don't produce top10 results and has never seen the post season.
That's all I ever said. Weird how defensive you are, and how much you try to justify it. It's okay to say maybe Lane is worth $8M instead of $9M or something like that.... I don't think you'll get in trouble.
And yes, if you spend $40M on a team like Ohio St, then yes you should expect to be good.

And Kiffin believes he is ready for a destination school.

Hugh Freeze is only $5M.
That is what he would owe if he left. His buyout is around 20M.

[Money has pretty much dried up after spending a lot on transfers and some HS recruits quote]I believe it drops to only $3 million after this season, right? Ole Miss is insane for not renewing that contract if they were truly set on keeping him.[/quote]
I think the money dried up after spending a lot on transfer portal players and some HS recruits.

Ok. You are retarded.
We are proud to pay? You're an idiot.
He has earned a top level salary by producing top 15 teams at Ole Miss.
We, as a fanbase, are proud to be able to afford a coach who is worthy of a top 10 type salary.
Don't try to figure it out any longer. The concepts are beyond your abilities.

Goodness, lots of namecalling. You okay?
It's good you're happy. I'm happy for you. Never making the playoff is certainly worth $9M. Money well spent.
Would that keep you indefinitely happy? Being ranked #14 and never making post season?

By almost every metric that parents with kids use, Oxford beats the hell out of Gainesville and most other university towns in the SEC. If you are looking at athletics, education, safety, and affordability, Oxford is the place to raise your children. Oxford School District has averaged 10 National Merit Semifinalists a year for the past 18 years.

"The better the coach, the better the contract terms."
This is the correct answer.
This is the correct answer.

Yes. Buyouts of the coach were to leave is the topic we’re discussing.

Is he stepping over the Pacific Ocean?
Only Stoops and Kirby have been at their schools longer than Kiffin has been at Ole Miss.

Do You really want a coach that had a loaded roster last year and lost to your current coach? He choked away a playoff spot with bad decisions in 2 games and got beat by an inferior Kentucky team in another loss
