I agree. This is an honest assessment. I think if Keith Carter tells Lane, "look, I know you may be interested in other opportunities, but let's finish this historic season and then you can make your decision" I think Lane may have ultimately stayed at Ole Miss because LSU was not going to wait around for Lane to make a decisions and would have forced his hand. That may have made LSU seem unreasonable in Lane's eyes and swung his decision back the other way.
Where Keith Carter fricked up is thinking that he could use Lane's ability to coach Ole Miss in the playoffs as leverage to force Lane to stay at Ole Miss. That was the nail in the coffin IMO.

I know the college football calendar is f'd and not Lane's fault, but Lane could have handled this better.
When did you want him to make his decision? Before the Egg Bowl? Your AD gave him an ultimatum and he made his decision within the time allotted. What do you think he should have done to handle the situation better?

That is 100% a juvenile rougarou.

What areas would you recommend in and around Lafayette for a young family (married with two very young daughters)to live in so they can start researching?
There are plenty of good options, but we probably need some more information.
Does he know where his office/workplace would be?
Do they intend to send their kids to private school or public school?
Budget on a house?
They can find a nice house in Lafayette proper for under $500K, but They'll likely be sending their kids to private school. If his job is south of Lafayette or if he doesn't mind a 20-25min commute to and from work, they can buy a nice house in Broussard or Youngsville and send their kids to public school if they want.

It depends on whether we are committed to a major investment in our OL in the portal. Unless we are willing to buy some talent in the trenches, it makes no sense to waste 2 mil on a RB.
It’s shocking how many don’t understand that our poor OL play was almost entirely on coaching. Our offensive scheme this year was complete dogshit.
Do you all really think Ole Miss, Vandy, Mizzou have more talent on the OL than we do? The talent is there. They need: (1) an OL coach that knows WTF he’s doing (I.e. not Brad fricking Davis) and (2) an OC that knows how to scheme. Hopefully we’ll have both next year.
Go watch the tape on Ole Miss from this year. They use a ton of unbalanced formation to get leverage on the play side.

According to LSU fans, Lane chose LSU because it will be easier to recruit there when NIL gets reined in
Who has said this? LSU fans said Lane chose LSU because he will be able to build a more talented roster here. Hell, Lane said that. NIL is a big part of that.

Money aside, it's the right move for Baugh given the current direction of both programs.

In that case honest question does Texas, Vandy, or OU beat Tulane or jmu? And if so what’s the spread?
No question. Texas, Vandy, ND all beat Tulane and JMU by 14+, just like Ole Miss and Oregon are about to do.

I legitimately have no idea what the person that delivers my mail even looks like. I'd rather they just throw the junk in the garbage to be honest.

lol suddenly Frank Wilson isn’t good
LSU fans have been bitching about Frank Wilson's coaching for a LOOOOOONNNNNGGGGG time.
quote:
I didn’t realize that. It must’ve been a stacked draft class.
He was the second RB drafted, he was just drafted at a time where NFL teams were not really valuing the RB position. That's swung back the other way some recently.
Wait, I thought that was against the rules? You can do that? Do OM fans know that?
quote:
An autopsy report indicated that the suspect allegedly dismembered Joksimovic using a jigsaw and garden shears, before slicing up the remains and dissolving them in a blender. The report further stated that the remains were "pureed" and dissolved in a chemical.
This sounds like something someone who killed in self defense would do.

Amazing book.
I wanted to like the book so bad, but I just do not like McCarthy's writing style. I powered through for the story, but it was a drudge.

Young teens are not the most critical thinkers. Just about everything they do is for attention.

He's a Candies. This will all be swiftly swept under the rug.
Did you ever get the sense that someone might have suspected it was you? Or suspected that you saw someone you knew IRL on those subs?

Same response. Private businesses should be free to serve (and refuse to serve) whoever they want.
