That's not a lie though.

The Ole Miss fanbase knows who they are. They're very self aware.

They know they're a stepping stone program, and always have been. They knew he would leave, and they were always at peace with it.




I disagree with this, most Ole Miss fans absolutely wouldn't admit to being a stepping stone program.



Then you probably don't follow a team outside of your own.

The Ole Miss fanbase has always known who they are. They don't live a lie about it. They knew Lane Kiffin would at some point leave, and they understood and accepted it.

Although this may change with NIL, the Ole Miss fanbase knows they're not in the competitive strata of the Alabama's and Georgia's of the world.

If you believe Ole Miss was pissed because he left, then you're just not paying attention to them. They knew from the day he arrived, that if he were successful, he would leave for a better program. They were righteously upset with how and more importantly when he left.
You forgot to quote this part.

Although power 4 coaching does indeed require a measure of moral flexibility. Most aren't willing to take it to the depths that Lane Kiffin is willing to take it.

No he doesn’t. He wants to win it and he will, but he doesn’t need to.


Oh yes he does.

He's believed to be the better coach. He has the better roster. He has the better defense. He has an intimate knowledge of the Ole Miss roster and it's tendencies. He understands the Golding defense and how to exploit it. He knows Trinidad Chambliss better than he knows himself. He still has loyalists in the Ole Miss athletic Department that feeds him information.

He's also playing in a less than hostile environment. That's right, I said it. Don't buy all this bullshite, pro-wrestling hype. Vaught Hemmingway stadium is about as hostile as Bryant Denny stadium.

I live in Louisiana and follow LSU football about as closely as its own fanbase. If LSU doesn't win this game, all of Kiffin's twatter trolling and media bullshite, won't seem so cute anymore.

Am I the only one that thinks the LSU/OM game will be a blowout? LSU -21


Nope.

Ole Miss has tooooooo much working against it in this game. LSU by 17 or so.

quote:

I like CWJr. After the debacle, he came back and apologized for leaving and was very upfront in that if he couldn't coach in the playoffs then he would not leave to go to LSU. He's a good dude and will be a HC in the next year or two.


This I believe.

There's a fair amount of LSU fan fiction that surrounds this slimy situation Kiffin put Ole Miss in. One of those fanciful tales is that Kiffin was "gracious" enough to loan Weiss to Ole Miss for the playoffs.

Well the opposite is likely true. Weiss probably made it clear to Kiffin that if he didn't get to finish what he started, he wouldn't head south.

Although power 4 coaching does indeed require a measure of moral flexibility. Most aren't willing to take it to the depths that Lane Kiffin is willing to take it.

I quit reading after that lie.


That's not a lie though.

The Ole Miss fanbase knows who they are. They're very self aware.

They know they're a stepping stone program, and always have been. They knew he would leave, and they were always at peace with it.

What they understandably didn't expect though, was that Lane Kiffin would give them the greatest football season they've had since the early 60's. Give them a legit playoff contender and then bail on them the way he did.

Had Brian Kelly been in the exact situation at LSU and left for Alabama under the exact same circumstances, the LSU fanbase, TAF and the administration would not have tolerated it. They would never allow such an indignity. They would've fired him or told him to simply leave.The dignity of the institution must be protected, not just the football program. Ole Miss understood this.

You have a blind spot for your team and you've successfully rationalized some legit anti-social behavior on the part of your headcoach. We all get that power 4 coaching is high stakes and sometimes requires a little moral flexibility, but what Lane Kiffin did was genuinely troubling.
quote:

Kiffin literally begged to coach Ole Miss in the playoffs and to try to lead you all to a National Title. It was your arrogant AD who cost Ole Miss it's best chance to win a National Title in 60 years.

That will be a decision your fan base will come to greatly regret, when you realize it'll probably be another 60 years before you get that type of chance.

Just admit it, your arrogant attitude and arrogant AD cost Ole Miss football a chance to win a National Title.

There is no difference between Kiffin and Sumrall. The only difference is Tulane acted like an adult, understood it was business and still let him coach in the CFP.

Ole Miss fans like yourself are the ones who are morally bankrupt.


First of all. Even if that were true, it was an utterly untenable position for Ole Miss to be in. There's no way they could allow that to happen. It was undignified, and Ole Miss would no more allow it than LSU would've.

There's no alternate universe where the LSU administration would've allowed any LSU coach to lead their team in the playoff, while he was building his roster for the Alabama Crimson Tide. And it wouldn't happen, because it would be pathetic.

Lane Kiffin put the Ole Miss administration in a situation where they had to protect the dignity of the University as a whole, not just the football program.

Nick Saban wasn't Kiffin's mentor, that's a lie. Urban Meyer was, and that's obvious now.

quote:

For the 1000th time, no one is mad that Lane left.....Lane did alot of good things for the program. The MANNER in which he left is a different story.
You could do it the right way(Sumrall at Tulane) or you could try and burn the program to the ground, like Lane did.
The guy is a morally bankrupt POS.


He and Urban Meyer go bowling together.
Let's pretend for a moment Brian Kelly was the coach LSU fans believed he would be. Now let's pretend Kelly did the exact same thing to LSU that Lane Kiffin did to Ole Miss, by taking an open Alabama job.

LSU fans would've been utterly apoplectic and rightly so. What Lane Kiffin did to the Ole Miss fanbase is one of the most low life things I've ever witnessed in sports. And it's the fanbase that matters, not the players. No one gives a shite about them, they're professionals now, and well compensated. But the fans? Well that's a different matter.

Urban Meyer has been the amoral, college football punching bag for years now. I can promise you, he welcomes Lane Kiffin's ascension.

You don't have to worry about Kiffin leaving LSU. What you have to worry about is the hand grenade he rolls into your football ops building, when he eventually does leave.
I went through this recently.

When you lose a dog as a kid, it's sad and all, but the gears in a kid's head shift rapidly and they get over it quickly.

Well I lost my dog as an adult, and man, that straight up fricked with me. I used to sorta make fun of adults who overly mourned the loss of a dog or cat, not getting what the big deal is. I thought people like that were weirdos

Well that changed. When my dog died, I finally got it. Holy shite, I couldn't believe how badly I mourned his loss. I blubbered for days like a child. I would do grievey shite, like get on my hands and knees, and smell the area of the carpet where he always slept. It was rough man.
