That's not what I said, nor is it what happened. Take a nap, buddy. You've done enough disingenuous America hating for now.

ESPN makes them present the "sides" that draw the most eyes. Those perspectives are usually the most asinine and inflammatory.

Don't fool yourself into thinking that this is journalism.

So, DT is playing to a crowd so that they'll like him. Shocker.

"Soccer" is the world's most popular sport. I've always wondered why America snaked its name. It makes no sense.

Both "soccer" and "football" are words that originated in England, chief.

Is this what "rent free" living is like? Not bad.

Wait til you hear about "5+ star." :lol:

They're whining about the current realities of college football. Their frustrations/commentary are not wrong... but it's a systemic issue, not a Lane issue.

If you got a problem with it, fix it. :dunno:

Honestly... humanized him a bit to me. You can tell it wasn't an easy choice.

They have to rebuild basically everything. Temper your expectations until he gets his team and system in place.

8+ wins should be considered a success. Anything less is forgivable (in year 1), anything more is a wild success.

Williams is good. But this is just asinine. Not only is he a very good DL coach and elite recruiter, but he is the direct line to the "culture" of Louisiana football that has been sorely lacking at LSU since his departure.

He's a bad HC. But dismissing him out of hand in this staff is silly.

The Mannings don't care. This is an ego parade. Enjoy it, if reality TV is your thing. But I'm out.

re: Tortious interference? Curious why it has not been pursued.

I had a similar thought about detrimental reliance. I think the issue, similar to the reason these bloated contracts with huge buyouts exist in the first place, is that higher ed attorneys aren't very good deal lawyers, and institutions don't want to pay top dollar for outside counsel.

Aaaaand, I'm out. This will he, won't he is a waste of all our time.

Wake me when the next guy is picked. But I'm not interested in this can kicking, soap opera horse shite.

I'm past that point, tbh. It's just player's picking hats from the table for pudgy middle aged dudes. Pass.

Yall understand that this is a claim they have to make, right? His attorneys are going to pile on anything that is logically possible.

I get the BK hate, generally. But this is a miss.
