They’ll say no now that they think he is leaving

But if he does stay they will love him and play it off as though he pulled off the greatest troll job in cfb

Dude mad at Kiffin for quitting on a football team, he quit on his family
I would take her out to a nice steak dinner, treat her like a gentleman. Show active interest in the conversation while making steady eye contact (wiith her eyes), make sure she gets home safetly then text her the next morning.

Invite her to thanksgiving and christmas with the family

Not sure what you mean

If something official comes out it is no longer a leak, leaks are really only relevant while nothing official has come out


Not a hot take, just an obvious one

The only thing you can depend on from the Reveille is that when we hire a coach there will be a letter to the editor stating that it’s embarrassing how much we are spending on a football coach when we could be spending it on academics and turning tiger stadium into a planetarium
He didn’t get the memo, college football is a pro sport now, not amateur, we are allowed to boo


But Think about the kids!!!!!

I thought paying the players and allowing unfettered access to the transfer portal would allow us to get out of this mindset that players are just poor, helpless, innocent bystanders in all of this. But I guess not

Players have become far more fickle and less loyal than any coach, but we are still out here like “but what about the kids!?!?”

NIL and transfer portal are responsible for creating this situation, players getting what they wanted led to this new and what will become more frequent coaching playoff issue. Also importantly, sports media, like the one on game day, is responsible for pushing the NIL problem ferociously despite the system not being near ready to handle it

Welcome, all involved, players, coaches, media, to the monster you created
My biggest reason wanting Lane as HC is my legitimate fear of us hiring Drink if we don’t

Ole Miss and LSU were not far apart before the 2000s.
simply not true

There is this misperception that LSU was what Florida was before spurrier got there

Prior to Saban LSU was 12th in all time wins and 16th in all time win percentage. LSU was not some bum school. The 90s were rough but LSU was a highy respectable football school, and just had not crossed the Rubicon yet

The absolute nerve to try to steal a coach in the playoff picture. How dare them

Impossible. I was assured by the rant that Mrs Terry is heading to BR to look at houses.
Obviously they are negotiating the Saban coaching succession plan, Saban coaches 3 years with Kiffin as AD, saban takes over as AD and Kiffin gets the HC job

Use your brain here folks

Kiffin would be a moron to leave OM. Expectations are much lower, the fan base doesn’t call for his head if he doesn’t make the playoffs every year, and he makes absolute bank.
Everyone eventually becomes a victim of their own success if they overstay their welcome

Your success creates expectations, eventually anything less than those expectations becomes unacceptable or you plateau and become stagnant. Just like any school, there will come a time where winning 9 games a season is not enough whether that is because you can never get over the hump or you got over the hump and regressed back to the mean. Very few coaches escape that fate. There are far more Dabo's and Franklins, and Bowdens, and mack browns than there are Sabans out there

The advantage at Ole Miss is that Kiffin has a longer grace period to build up expectations than if he were at a bigger brand, but it all leads to the same place eventually
The buyout payments stopping in december, he needs to get back on the gravy train

I also don’t understand how either can survive when we have city park and Audubon golf courses which I imagine are much nicer.



It ain’t about the good bud :lol:

Take a photo prove it. Freak
to be fair, even if he took a pic you’d likely just say he scratched himself or another person scratched him or a dog whatever

You’d require more “proving it” I’m sure

If he actually converted over it like some say, that’s more solid evidence to me that he at least believes it’s true than a picture of some scratches

The pillow you need highly depends on your sleep position

Well Bear Bryant built the foundation for Saban to success then :lol:


yes bryant build a brand that made alabama a historical power and blue blood. Alabama is able to sell the blue blood historic foundation bryant built. Does not mean every coach at Alabama will be successful, it is just a notch on the belt as a selling point for the program, Saban built upon that already historic foundation that probably made it a bit easier for him to succeed there

I am not sure why him not being a bad coach has to make me like the hire


When your qualification is "he is not a bad coach" that is less than inspiring, does not mean he can't be successful here though, it is just an uninspiring hire
Saban built a foundation that is still here today

LSU brand grew to what it is now out of the roots of what he did while here. The next coach will have that brand to work with, jut like Kelly, just like O, Just like Miles

The foundation that made LSU the brand that it is can't be used to tarnish a coach's success
