Yeah people don’t understand the Alabama job is not better than the LSU job

Just because they have had 2 of the greatest coaches of all time does not mean they have built in recruiting and financial advantages over LSU - which they don’t.
It’s absolutely a top 5 job, but so is LSU. You don’t make that move unless you’re about to get in a bind, which I don’t think lane will.

Opposing fans- “Don’t leave Lane, LSU is gonna hurt you. They will fire you in 3 years.”

Also opposing fans- “Don’t trust him LSU fans. He will hurt you and leave you high and dry in 3 years”

Long story short- they don’t care about LSU or LK. They just scared of what’s gonna happen next.

I don't understand why people worry about LSU not being a final destination.. as mentioned, biggest regret of Saban's career. If you win, a dynasty can be built here. I'd hope to keep LK until he f'ing retires. I don't want a 5-6 year historic run. I want an iconic coach here for 15 years with a few natties sprinkled in. I don't need 10 natty's in 15 years but want to compete for SEC and CFBP most years
THIS! My prediction is he stays for 10 or so years which puts him at age 60+. He can write his own story at LSU, better than anywhere else. And after he's here for long-term, he'll be ready for the beach or ESPN Game Day.

I think after the way all this shook out, Lane and family are going to be happy and content bathing in the love and passion Tiger nation will show them.

He’s going to ignore all the external bullshite from the biased media, get back to work, and turn LSU into the monster we all know it can be.

I think Verge will always do what’s necessary to keep him unless he starts losing games he shouldn’t. Only job I’d be concerned about would be the Bama job if it opens while he’s at LSU. If he wins big at LSU, I could see Bama considering him.


I’m not concerned about him jumping to Bama.

Both Bama and LSU are S tier jobs. People think he’d jump to Bama why? Bc he was OC there for a few years? They also fired his arse and aired the dirty laundry why.

Idk, seems contrived like a certain fanbase is upset over the hire and is simply trying to needle LSU fans. Don’t take the bait.

LK is going to do whatever he wants whenever he wants, as long as he’s winning and as long as it’s good for him. He’s not loyal to anyone but himself and I couldn’t care less! Enjoy the ride!

Dietzel was the last (only?) LSU coach to leave for another college job & it wasn’t Bama.

Bama? nah. NFL.

Mickey Loomis has probably called Lane already to gauge interest.

After this whole mess, Lane’s reputation has taken a hit. It will take some time for him to recover, but he will recover eventually.

I’d love to go on a 15-20 year dominating run with Lane. I also won’t care if he’s here 5-6 years and wins a Natty and leaves.

I’ve seen LSU win the Natty with 3 different coaches, and if he wins one and leaves. It’ll just be another chance for another coach to win one.

After watching Saban do what he did at Bama knowing that should have been your program the whole time. Nothing a Coach can do will hurt us the same ever again.

Nope! Saban made that mistake. Our fans are passionate at best. But the REC is a WHOLE different ball game.
