He might have signed, and NOLA.com might report that he signed, but LSU doesn't have him on its list of signees on the website as of 5 pm Wednesday.

re: SEC allegedly working to add Clemson and North Carolina

The SEC should just have a relegation agreement with either the American or Sun Belt.

Send Arkansas (0-8) and two from Auburn (1-7), Miss State (1-7) and South Carolina (1-7) to the American for North Texas (7-1), Tulane (7-1) and Navy (7-1) or to the Sun Belt for James Madison (8-0), Old Dominion (6-2) and Troy (6-2).

Avoiding relegation would create as big of a buzz as reaching the playoffs. Miss State's 38-35 victory over Arkansas on Nov 1, for example, would garner much more interest than it originally did.

The recruiting calendar did Kiffin/LSU no favors, with National Signing Day coming three days after he was officially hired. He'll work the portal as he always does; LSU needs experienced players at multiple positions. It's possible 2026 is a transition season, and the program really rolls forward starting in 2027.

From the CBS Sports story -- among others -- it's apparent Saban, Carroll and Sexton helped steer Lane to LSU

Marty Smith's problem is that he believed his friendship with Kiffin gave him an "in." When Kiffin brushed him aside on the field after the Egg Bowl, it was obvious Marty Smith wasn't going to know anything more than anyone else.

re: One last laugh at Florida

This is Stricklin's third swing at a football coach after Mullen and Napier. Napier came across as a panic hire, swooping in before LSU could, even given Woody's penchant for swinging big. Florida is one of those places where there's a fit for a certain type of coach -- big offensive minds like Spurrier and Meyer. Defensive coaches -- Zook and Muschamp, for example -- have struggled. So to turn away from Kiffin and to tell Lincoln Riley no come across as mistakes. Only time will tell if Sumrall was the right choice.

Because being upset with CLK panders to his listeners so that they call in and vent. It's easy radio. Remember that misery loves company.

One byproduct of hiring Kiffin could be the take-no-prisoners attitude, no matter the opponent. LSU won't beat the G5 teams and FBS teams 100-0, but doubtful there will be many close calls as you saw from Les Miles teams and this year against La Tech and W Kentucky.

re: The media hypocrisy on Kiffin is comical. What the heck should he have done?!?

Posted by EscambiaTiger on 12/1/25 at 12:04 pm to TigerFan244

When the talking heads say, "It's how and when he did it," they are talking about the ultimatums he supposedly gave Ole Miss regarding staff and players. Finebaum is mad because he knows what LSU could be capable of under Kiffin, and he's concerned for his beloved Alabama. It's similar to how LSU fans when Saban left the Dolphins for Alabama.

Most new coaches have singled her out, and during that period when LSU was between ADs, I thought it possible she could be in the mix, even though she had just left for Rutgers.

Kentucky has to have the worst timing since LSU announced it was raising football season ticket prices before losses to Vanderbilt and Texas A&M and firing Brian Kelly.

In addition to Verge, I would love to know what role Saban played in all of this. Perhaps we owe him some thanks — on top of owing him a consulting fee — if the reports are accurate that he played a role in helping LSU land Kiffin.

Alexa, play Neck.

Perhaps the most exciting hire in LSU football history. Nick Saban hadn’t become Nick Saban when LSU hired him from Michigan State.
