Because its fun, and the program is dead in its current state? Also its vindicating since we felt like we shouldn't have been cornered into firing him?

What kind of question is this?

When I see people calling WW a scumbag, I try to wrap my head around what exactly their alluding to.

Did they actually care about the FBI investigation? Feels like an incredibly hypocritical and empty argument. If they cared they wouldn't have praised the hire when he went to NC State, or they should have also demanded Bill Self's head.

"Well this is just what he does" Are we conflating Kiffin and WW as the same person now? Hard to really believe WW has a "history" of this just because he left McNeese recently (on incredibly good terms I might add).

Major media is missing the main, and only, important part of this story, and I don't blame them because you would only be in the know if you were living in this state or on this board. The average LSU fan really never stopped acting like WW was their coach. In spirit, he was always the General in exile. And now, for the deeply personal reasons he alluded to, there has been a reunion.

At the end of the day it just rubs people the wrong way when they see that coaches are real people and are not forced to treat each coaching job as an equal commodity. It pains people to be reminded that some jobs are just BETTER than others.

If you look at the QB rankings heading into the season you can answer that question yourself. The talent scouts were absolutely in error across the board.

For reference

1, 2, 3, & 5: Nuss, Klubnik, Arch, and Sellers
8. Lagway

Nuss was bad in important games even in 2024. The scouts just assumed he could fix that with more experience

Were gonna have to get the jaws of life for you

I mean the OM AD is letting him have it both ways because the potential outcome is a natty…

LSU is letting him have it both ways out of pure hope he’ll honor his word

Letting him coach is only advantageous to OM

Seen a lot of OM wouldn’t let him coach the playoffs but LSU would - it’s the opposite way as long as there no announcement

I don’t think OM could do it but it’s wild a lot of the LSU fans would leave it up to chance. If we let him coach and yall did win he wouldn’t leave

Lane will only come if he doesn’t win the national championship is what that argument boils down to that’s why.


“Oh he could publicly announce and still coach” that’s not happening. OM will let him coach if he doesn’t announce because then the door is still open for them.

If you’re LSU, you absolutely cannot let Lane coach the playoffs. Everyone will be indignant and say OM can’t win it all, but the fact is they very well could - then you’re in the Les Miles Michigan situation where it’s impossible for him to leave.

That being said, it was understandable to let him coach last week and “Finnish with his guys” as he owed it to his players and OM to secure their playoff spot. But IT IS SECURED now with or without an SECG win. The leverage Lane had is gone in theory and we’re officially in “have my cake and eat it too” territory.

The Iron Bowl should not matter BECAUSE THE SECG DOES NOT MATTER. Lane is saying “I want the LSU job if I can’t win the national championship this year” at this point.
