Why did the buttonmen who jumped Frankie Five Angels say "Michael Corleone says hello" when the intent was to kill him?


I always thought they were trying to pin it on Michael for anyone who heard.

This reminds me of 1/9/12

Sheesh. Dominance.

Kiffin leaving for lsu rallied the donors to go all in… they want to prove their success wasn’t just because of Kiffin and protect their status. So they spent a bunch in the portal.


Best answer. Thanks. Makes sense.

Why did Ole Miss do well in the portal?

I was surprised to see them rank fairly high after Kiffin left. Obviously, he built it. But, what’s the draw otherwise?
“Eli Manning ranks highly in several all-time NFL passing categories, including 7th in career passing yards (57,023), touchdowns (366), and completions (4,895) at his retirement.”

2 Super Bowl win, 2-time Super Bowl MVP, 8-4 playoff record.

In 14 years, he only missed one game.

Top 10 all time in every major category.

Beat the 18-0 Patriots in the biggest upset of all time.

I think he’s a hall of famer.
Is this why he got shot in the back over and over 11 days later?
Wait, I remember Phil Loadholt but don’t remember why. What was his story?
A strong, competitive team that fights and is competent and excellent in all three phases of the game.

I expect good coaching and good players who work hard

I expect a program that is aligned and working together

I expect discipline and innovation

Championships are a result of a good process, talent, good coaching, and a lot of good fortune, so I never have a “championship or bust” mentality. But, I do expect competency.

All we have is football … and baseball. So, it’s always “all in.”

Keep up or quit.
What are you talking about?

Ancient history?

Houston was favored and we didn’t even have a coach or quarterback and half our players were gone.
Everything in college football is year to year now. Expecting a player or coach to stay for any length of time is delusional. It’s pure chaos.

Plus, so what if he leaves after a couple of years or 5 years or 10 years or 15 years? All we have is today anyway.

How is Lane doing today? That’s all that matters until there is CFB reform of some kind. It’s not 2010 anymore. It’s the Wild West and we bought a mercenary gunslinger with a chip on his shoulder. So be it.

Do we need any corners?

What’s our cornerback situation? I see we haven’t taken one yet. Are we eyeing anyone or are we good?

This is not a complaint thread or doom saying. It’s a simple question as to the CB situation.
Safe to say it would be a complete demolition of the program at this point if we hadn’t made the move. The buyout saves us money in the long run.
Look, 2019 LSU is better and would beat this team, but this is the first time since 2019 I haven’t been personally insulted by making the comparison.

This is an incredible football team. Dominant and a pleasure to watch.

Ah, so Vegas knew.

Even worse.

Wasn’t Ole Miss favored in this?

#6 and 13-1 only remaining SEC team against an ACC team with two losses? Kiffin set Ole Miss up so well and then Golding just chokes it away with his defense giving up 31 points.

Doesn’t bode well.

Oh, I’m fine. I was just reflecting on why the Big 10 sports media and the rest of the SEC likes to run this lie that LSU is somehow corrupt and everyone else is pure. It’s about more than football.
