Based on what? He didn't do much at UTk or USC and both of those are better programs than aggy. He's still done nothing at OM. I don't understand the fascination with Kiffin. The only success he's had was as Nick Saban's OC with better talent than everyone.


Since he’s arrived at Ole Miss in 2020 he has more wins than every other program in the SEC with the exception of Georgia and Alabama. He was at Tennessee for a year and his dream job opened. Less than six months after he took said dream job the NCAA brought the house down and he was working with a loss of 30 scholarships and bowl bans his first 3 years. Don’t get me wrong he’s matured a ton and become a much better coach than he was then but it’s hard to judge him on his one season at Tennessee and USC getting hit with sanctions before he could even coach his first game there.

8-4 at OM will get his name on the stadium. But at A&M even they get fed up with it eventually

Kyle Whittingham or Kalen Deboer might be decent candidates for the A&M job

If Whittingham hasn't left by now, he's not ever going to leave.

That was a long time ago. He is definitely not the same coach or guy he was back then.

Kiffin isn’t interested in going to atm. He’s too smart for that. Bjork is right. There’s something wrong there but nobody can put their finger on it

A&M has zero interest in Kiffin.

That is how people felt about Chris Petersen at Boise then he finally left.

Neither Lane or A&M are interested in each other. It would be a disastrous fit from a culture standpoint.

Having seen many coaching searches as an LSU fan all fan
bases are living in LaLa land.Rarely if ever does it turn
out like the fans think it will. ALA lucked into NS,who
buy the way called LSU trying to come back as coach,because
he failed in the NFL. JF`s Fla.St team was on the way down
when he jumped ship and raped A@M.Brian Kelly got tired of
begging ND for upgrades and keeping up with the Joneses.
If A@M ends up with Jeff Trailor or the guy from Kansas
they will be lucky.They are very good coaches but the idiots
who run this will want a big name who isn`t available.

Both Kelly and Kiffin are the ones can't seem to get it done to win a championship


Do you really think Kelly won't win a National Championship while he is at LSU ?

He took a broken program with 37 scholarship athletes and won the West in year 1 and despite our obvious defensive struggles, had us in contention in year two.

The trajectory of the LSU program is headed for championships. The defense will be corrected, and the offense looks to continue its dominance.

The future at LSU under Kelly looks extremely bright. How does the future look at Mizzou, or A&M ?

What has Lane Kiffin done that makes him so appealing? Sure, he can put together a nice offense but that's all you'll get out of him. It will not matter how great his recruits are.

That sounds good but until Kelly is recruiting at an elite level which he still isn't even at LSU you might want to temper those expectations. The fact that LSU had to settle for 2nd and 3rd tier portal DBs and one talented headcase DB while Bama took a 1st tier portal DB from ULL says Kelly has a lot to overcome.

That's the mark of a good program builder. Kelly's history at the FBS level doesn't inspire much confidence past that role. Dude loses more big games than not.
