I'm watching the game right now and the players are straight up ignoring Lane. I saw him tell a player to calm down and they just ran right by him and high fived the coaches guy behind him.

Be real. He said he thinks he is staying but also has a contingency plan. That tells you he doesn’t even really know and has made alternate plans.

This is the most telling part of that lol of course he is going to say he "thinks" he will stay but to follow up with "but we are prepared if he doesn't" should actually be the headline lol


It’s the real life version of “done deal, unless something changes. Fluid.”

If he were staying, he would have signed an extension after LSU got rid of Kelly. He is gone.

Only thing he can say. It’s not like he’s going to say “we think he’s leaving, and are moving on.”


He can say it’s a fluid situation and right now they’re just focused on the Egg Bowl and there will be more clarity after this game.

An AD saying he’s pretty sure the coach is staying is putting himself out on a limb to look like an idiot. I know I wouldn’t say that if it wasn’t true.

Oh, he's still trying. They cannot match LSU in NIL next year, that much is undisputed.

Ole Miss =/= LSU in brand power.

He would have to convince Lane to pass up a sure deal at LSU or continue to build the system at Ole Miss. But here's the kicker, you have to win championships to build brand recognition. Is Ole Miss a championship team this year? I think Lane even knows, deep down, they are not.

If LSU feels the same way, news will break soon just like it did for UF.

People here are in such denial

If he actually thought Lane was leaving never would he dream of saying “he believes lane is staying”

He would have said something like “we aren’t really discussing that now focused on right now yada yada”

Guys it’s obvious he is likely staying

Who cares?

1. What do you expect the ole Miss AD to say?

2. If he was staying you’d think the Ole Miss AD would be the first to know

He’s lying. He knows Lane is gone.

Whatever

Heads not in the sand but, unless he announces that Lane actually signed the extension, why do we care what the Ole Miss AD says?

So he says that and that gets back to the players as this game is happening, that becomes a distraction to the players…think McFly…
