My source doesn’t know. Last week it was “70% confident” it would be Saban. But it feels like that window of opportunity has been shut, imo.

Sexton vs Verge is not a fair fight.

Oh wow so you may or may not have a sideline pass, who cares! My dad and I went down there at home games for years when he was coaching. That proves nothing other than you may or may not have a few connections to get you down there. Unless you are besties with Scott Ballard or Carmouche then you know very little.
Hell you could a State Trooper or LSU police for all we know and that’s how you on the sideline with no sources

Idiots to emotional to see things for what they are... Saban nor Kiffin... The fact is Kiffin can achieve everything at the place he is already at... Don't be so prideful and delusional...

I can tell you without a shadow of a doubt Saban never considered it.

That pic was taken right before the national anthem, evidenced by the flag on the opposite sideline about to be brought into the field. Once the team comes out to their sideline, visitors have to leave.

Even if you do have a sideline pass for during the game, that doesn’t mean you have “sources”. I know someone with sideline passes to LSU games because he knows a photographer. Neither he nor that photographer knows jack fricking shite lol.

How would we be getting played if the buzz has been UF lol

If anything, I think UF would be getting played here


The most likely scenario is that Jimmy Sexton is playing LSU and Florida off each other to get concessions out of Ole Miss.

If Lane is really as happy and settled in Oxford as everyone says, it wouldn’t take much. They probably wouldn’t even have to match LSU/UF’s offers. Coming a million or three within those offers with a nice extension would probably be enough.

Correct. No reason to give away leverage right now. Might leave for an nfl job though.

It wouldn’t have been an lsu coaching search if you weren’t on here pretending to be important to anonymous people on the internet.

week ago I was told that Lanning was the target the entire time. That the Saban and Lane smoke were just that. LSU doesn’t think Nike will get into a bidding war. They’ll simply find a hotshot coordinator and just throw in loads of NIL infrastructure. But that’s kind of cooled because i don’t think Lanning wants to leave. But I was told Lanning was always the A#1 target the entire time.



Sounds like Agents playing games

I trust nothing at this point

We’d all love Lanning but being #1 a sounds like an intentional mislead of information

Nike has him wrapped up- that’s pretty well known

My nephew is getting recruited by SEC schools. He went on some visits and this is what he was told this weekend. Lane is taking the LSU job. Golding will take the old Ole Miss job. He’s already preparing his staff. Auburn is getting the Tulane coach. The reason LSU is the choice is because Lane is keeping his family in Oxford and it’s close by and he feels like he can recruit better at LSU in Florida without in-state competition. Tifwiw which is not much.

Was he told this by other schools other than LSU, Ole Miss, or Florida?

No way. His son is already practicing with U-high and taking finals there in December.

This is dumb. No matter what the buyout one donor has already said he will pay it. But I’m glad to see you have this is hold on to because you’re about to lose your coach.
