won’t really last until next Saturday. The official announcement may be next Saturday, but the talking heads will start putting out info immediately. ESPN probably will break far before next Friday.
Which is why this would be insane for ole miss to allow him to stay if they think he is leaving …

don't think this is gonna stay under wraps for a week. I wouldn't be shocked if this was made public sooner


Which is how you get “Miles to Michigan” situations. And coaches that get angry and stay to spite the leaks.

I just don't understand why Kiffin would even want to coach the Egg Bowl if he knows he's coming here


He took Ole Miss from the basement and has them on the verge of making the CFP. Im sure being there with his team means a lot to him.

This is all going as expected. Especially realistically. Many even predicted this. The longer the better for LSU.

You can wait till the season is over to make it official.

Because he cares about his players and wants to make sure they make the playoffs before his exit. just a guess


This.

If Lane is trying to do right by OM and his players, then he and LSU are silent until Wednesday... or whenever the playoff field is announced.

I can tell you the SEC Network crew in Baton Rouge for tomorrow's WKU-LSU game all believe Kiffin is LSU's coach.

I don’t get this statement. Why would he know this or if it’s just a general statement why worry about it?

And if you're saying an announcement is coming on a given day, you already know the announcement.

Exactly and if he's staying, why not announce it now?

Why are LSU fans losing their minds. This is a great sign for LSU. What’s one more week to wait if we get him??


They desperately want to try and win this week. It makes sense to me that they at least want to try and get into the playoffs. Even if he’s leaving.

December 7

Not happening, particularly with early signing December 3-5

If he's gone it's known in the next 8 days

Updating with tidbits from Wilson Alexander:
LINK

- LSU still doesn't have a commitment from Lane, but is expected to start pushing for one Sunday going into next week
- backup plan is Drinkwitz
- LSU is open to letting him coach in the playoff if Ole Miss approves

Yep. Wouldve been crazy and unprecedented for him to leave before the regular season was over.

Hope his odds to come to lsu decrease back to the 50th percentile this week with OM’s false hope so I can pick up more shares

The sauce in this post is incredible, needs to be stickied

How do you know this? Who do we believe is the source? What’s the consensus? Someone in LSU administration?

Break the bank for a top 25-30 coach and pay him like a top 5 coach(like Ryan Day money), lol. That would be a clown show.
