Kiffin wants any job other than Ole Miss


I don't think he goes anywhere until the Bama job opens. He wants it, that's why the Bama game us such a big deal to him. If he can beat Bama with Ole Miss, why wouldn't they hire him?

Please tell me you think Ole Miss is a better job than LSU. Please.


Come on, man. You know hardware doesn’t matter to them. That desire has been beaten out of them over the last 40 years.

It is. You only have to deal with LSU fans one day instead of an entire year. That makes it a better job by itself.

Lane likes to be talked about as a candidate for every big job. He loves the attention and gets a raise every time.

From my sources* connected to Lane from his time here in South Florida, the word I've always gotten is Lane loves Oxford - so there's that.



* Not of the "Lane's mailman's neighbor" type variety, but by no means inside info. TIFWIW

I swear every offseason its the same thing

“Kiffin is literally sucking cock to get out of Oxford!!”

He has had at least half a dozen chances to do so, and yet he remains


Sounds alot like when Mullen was at State

But have you considered the traditions at aTm?


What traditions? Ole Miss has deeper traditions than A&M and no I'm not talking about their cult yells and mid-night practices.

He will get a raise again but it won't be as big as the last two.

He currently receives $9 million base plus incentives and bonuses for wins, playoffs, ticket sales, etc. with a bonus cap of an additional $2.6 million. If he remains HC at Ole Miss through Dec 31, 2023, he gets an additional $250k.

Good times.

Ole Miss fans knew they were getting Lane & nobody believed them.

And everybody went from “why will no SEC team at least give The Pirate a chance?”
to
“Oh no, State. What is you doing?”

A&M needs a Sabanesque coach. Someone who has enough clout and balls to tell the boosters to screw off and let him run the team his way. Urban is the only one I see who could pull this off, but I just don't see it happening.

Lane doesn't want the job. He wants the illusion that A&M wants to hire him. They don't.
He wants the illusion, in order to get a new, more lucrative contract at Ole Miss.

If it is just about money, Ole miss is as good as any job for lane. They will match anyone else’s offer and he also won’t be expected to win a national championship

If it is about actually wanting to have an opportunity to win a national championship, Florida and A&M are far better options

Ole miss simply can’t get the same players.

Kiffin is a perfect fit at ole miss. He’s quirky enough and plays a style of football they love in Oxford. He gets to make some head scratching calls and losses with little expectations while remaining the king of the town.

Aggy, wants to win a title in the worst way possible and will pay whatever it takes. He’d be under significantly more pressure there.

Elko will be the hire IMO.
