People have said he's autistic for years.
And you gave him 10+ Million a year knowing that ?
People that are Autistic are not - get this - adaptable to new stimulus. You know, like Les Miles. Like the vast majority of college coaches.
Seriously - y'all deserve this. Lane and LSU are made for each other.

You should feel bad for picking on autistic people
That's been the thing today ... not in Lane's defense. That's he's "autistic".
Well - if you corn-dogs gave that much money to a legit autistic dude to try to run that show in Baton Rouge ? You deserve all the carnage that is coming.
But I like how this is going. Some of you are seeing it now. This is going to be better to watch than Falcon Crest or Dynasty or Days of Our Lives.
For the record - I think he's a Sociopath. As am I. But as Clint Eastwood said - a man has to know his limitations.

Poor Lane - why do you hate him ? He just gets picked on.

It is interesting how people will blast him for doing the same things everyone else does though.
You can say it different ways all night. That's the "new way" of debate.
Let me boil it down for you. Poor Lane, he just gets picked on.
Now you'll start hitting the thesaurus to figure out new ways to spin it. And I'll keep being brutal in bringing it back to the basics.
Poor Lane. He just gets picked on.

It seems like folks go out of their way to hate on him for doing relatively minor things.
He's just picked on. From USC to Alabama to the Raiders to Tennessee to whatever.
He's just picked on. Just like the kid that keeps getting his arse kicked at the bus stop, by every kid at the bus stop. Its not Lane's fault. Its all the other kids.

I do like the fact that his buyout would be less than Kelly's, if he stayed the same amount of time.
Here's my point. You'll NEVER find a coach you like. And I get it - you tasted the best. Nick Saban at his very prime..
But there is no young Nick Saban coming through that door.
Do I want Lane Kiffin to understand that ? No. I hope this thing crashes and burns for both of you. But my hope does not matter. Lane Kiffin is not mature enough to manage LSU, and LSU is not mature enough to manage Lane Kiffin.
This will be a train wreck. Maybe cooler heads will prevail after the bodies are counted.

Nah, they're done with O, so just Kelly and Kiffin.
My Man - when you do an "ACTUALLY WE'RE ONLY PAYING TWO COACHES" post.
The point holds. You're going to pay Kiffin to leave just like you paid Kelly to leave just like you paid O to leave just like you paid the Grass Eater to leave.

How is LSU any more "all in" than any other program with their coach?
LSU is paying three coaches right now. And look - Kentucky sucks - they'll be paying Mark Stoops on layaway for years. Like my parents did for the shitty stuff at Consolidated Sales. I remember those days. Most white trash kids from the 70s do.
But my man - you're on Coach Number Three. That is a problem. And this cat isn't your Magic Bullet either.
The only way you won't be on Coach Number Four before Lane's contract expires is if you've paid out on Coach O.

So basically just like every other coach? They either get fired or they leave.
Hence my point - entirely. Going "All In" on this guy is the problem.
At some point, either he leaves you or you fire him. I'm betting on the latter.
People take receipts. This one for Kiffin ? Its going to dwarf Kelly and Coach O combined.
People understood the Kelly thing. Even Coach O. But at some point, like a woman on her third husband ? Its not them. Its you.

Lol YOU know, I KNOW, EVERYONE who has an inkling of football knowledge knows this will be another TCU, Cincinnati type game.
Said it before, will say it again. That game - Indiana vs. Alabama - will tell me all I ever need to know about DeBoer.
Because Indiana is a very well coached team. They use a multitude of fronts on defense, and exotic stunts out of them just about every play. They do more with less that about any team in Division I right now.
So Alabama MUST - simply MUST - stop all the dumb shite and just run forward. Hat on a hat. No Guard and Tackle pulls. Just go big on big. Run some Duos schemes in the hole and take five yards all day.
Can DeBoer and this staff do that ? I don't know. They seemed to keep it simple like that for two quarters against Oklahoma - then went back to the same old self defeating shite.
If Alabama keeps it simple ? They win by two scores.

Have you ever been in a leadership role where you're replacing someone on a specific date in the future?
Yes. Why Yes I have. And its awkward.
You still have to keep up appearances. Because appearances are all some people see. You know ... like some 18-22 high testosterone ball players and some high ego donors.
Its a bad look. But I get it, on this board. Its going to be "everything is fine and frick you" right up until the divorce.
Do you understand that LSU will not be Lane Kiffin's last job ? He's going to leave. One way or the other. Either he wins and goes pro, or you fire him and his coaching career is done.
I'm betting on a messy divorce.
Guys ... here its called "dick-riding" now. So - OK - I'll dick ride LSU.
I think its still the best combination of local talent and booster support in the country. They just grow a bigger, faster, stronger player - black and white - from that area from the Panhandle to Texarkana into the part of Texas that all the big schools ignore, and up to Southern Mississippi.
And LSU has enough money, dedicated to football, to keep enough of it and grab some pieces outside that region. Look - LSU isn't poor. Oil Money exists. Shipping money exists. A ton of refinery money exists. Ag money exists.
And I think Lane Kiffin screws all this up on a Bobby Petrino scale. That is NOT a shot at Louisiana. I like Louisiana. I've liked it every time I've worked there.
Lane Kiffin is not going to work there. Feel free to mark this down. Screen cap it.

And this, my friends, is why Olson Johnson really really did not want to take in the Irish.
Taylor Swift should link up with the Pop Tart Bowl - just to write a song about how disappointed she was with all the men that don't eat the crust.
It'll go Top Ten. She'll make millions.

There is one exception to the Pop Tart tart. If we're putting a vanilla frosted tart with sprinkles down the toastere ?
That has to be Gwyneth Paltrow. Now, I'd eat that Pop Tart. Sprinkles and all.

Its a lame Pop-Tart they put through the toaster. I was a big Chocolate Fudge Pop-Tart guy back in the day. Halle Berry should have been that pastry.
Also like the Brown Sugar Cinnamon pastry. Now we could have went Selma Hayek or Sofia Vergara on that one.
But the pasty white Vanilla Pop-Tart ? No. Not even with the damn sprinkles.

I get stuck, now and then, at the hotel waiting on an afternoon flight from A to B.
ESPN talkers ABSOLUTELY have an agenda. You can do the Rush Limbaugh montage where they all say the same key words from segment to segment.
ESPN also wants you to care about the WNBA. And folks like Stephen A. and others really, really think you like it when they mean mug each other and scream for an entire segment. Maybe the numbers support that act.

You do realize that 2’s and 3’s got record amount of snaps in that game, right?
You do realize that if you're so sure ? Bet it.
You remind me of the point where I have to tell a "boss", or my wife, to quit fricking arguing with me. Because you're arguing against the wrong person.
If you know how this game is going to go ? Bet it. Telling me, continuously, how its going to go with the same phrase over and over again means nothing. Literally.
If you know ? Bet it. We'll know if a few days. Until then ? You're doing the "repeat it over and over again until you believe its true" bullshite.
