Ross is legit. He doesnt jump the gun and post crap.


Do you know the difference between speculation and announcing the hire? No deal is done and nothing is agreed to. So because Ross reported some information about LSU pursuing Lane you believe it is happening? Then why isn’t a contract signed, sealed and delivered? Why hasn’t it been agreed to and a LOI been signed if they’re finalizing it? Because it hasn’t happened.

Y’all don’t have to believe me, but here’s what I was told by someone high up in TAF he signed the contract yesterday. They’re trying to keep it quiet because no media outlet has hard proof yet, which is the only reason nothing is public. Deal is for $13.5M a year, and the press release is supposed to drop Saturday at 3:00 PM.
And yes he can still coach the Egg Bowl because coaches finish out their rivalry week/game before anything goes official. Believe it or don’t, but I’m literally just passing on what I heard. And this guy is 100 percent correct

You can't sign a legally binding contract while on another by other university. At best he signed a non-binding agreement that he can easily break if he wants by Saturday. I would keep my mouth shut on this before someone pisses him off in the media.

That’s actually not how coaching deals work. You can sign something while employed elsewhere it just isn’t the final long-form contract. Nobody signs the full contract during the season. What coaches sign first is an MOU/term sheet that outlines the salary, years, buyout, and guarantees. Those can be legally binding depending on how they’re written. Universities do this every single coaching carousel so a coach can keep working for his current school while his new deal is being finalized behind the scenes. That’s why agents exist. So yes, he can coach the Egg Bowl Thursday and still sign an agreement earlier in the week. TAF’s financial side is heavily involved because they’re the ones who fund the salary pool, so they’re often aware before the public. The media just won’t touch it until they have documents they can verify. That doesn’t mean it isn’t true just that nobody’s leaking the paperwork yet. I’m only repeating what I was told: the MOU is signed, $13.5M per year.
