Lane is a bad hire, simply by the fact that hes unavailable till January, at the earliest. So next year would be a waste anyway.
That's only if Ole Miss would advance to the Semifinals (which would be on Jan 8-9). Assuming OM doesn't, the transfer portal opens on Jan 2. The only downside in terms of roster building with the hire (assuming OM makes the CFP) would be missing the early signing day. While that's not insignificant, it's also not a death knell either.
IF LSU thinks Kiffin is the HC they need to take the program to a consistent championship contender, then sacrificing one HS signing class would be worth it.

The timing is bad but you don’t pass on a guy because his team is playing in the playoffs.
Yes, it might hurt this recruiting and portal cycle but, if you really believe he’s the guy who can coach for 8-10 years or more with multiple playoff appearances and get a national title or 2, you wait
I’d rather sacrifice next year in order to get the right guy than hire the wrong guy and be back in this position in 3-4 years

Riiiiiight. Lane can guarantee all that, lol. Dude hasn't been anywhere, and successful, staying for 8 years.
If Lane had any success at LSU, he would be mentioned for every single pro job available. And thats his dream, period.
And your post is exactly my point. Its all unicorns and Santa Clause hopefully bullshite.....not one word of what you said is contractually bound to him. Its just hope.
I think its a dumpster fire to wait on him, knowing he wont stay for more than 3 or 4 years anyway.
And...IF we run him off, we'll owe another 50+ M dollar buyout

Kiffin is a fine HC a great offensive play caller however he has a knack for losing a game every season that his teams absolutely should not lose! So in my opinion you're setting yourself uo to have to pay another massive buy out in 4 or 5yrs because let's face it this fan base is spoiled! It's Natty or bust here because of all the winning of the past 30yrs. And the fans will get restless again even with Kiffin as HC if he's not winning the natty in 3 or 4yrs! Sure if he's hired I will cheer for him etc but if you look at this objectively you'll see I'm stating facts!

Congrats. One of the dumbest posts on this board. Not easy to do. Alot of competition.

Since it's all of us dealing with hypotheticals at this point, if it's proven that Saban actually did recommend LSU press hard for Kiffin, would you still feel this way?

Timing?
There is never a good timing when hiring coaches.Nowadays.
With the recruiting.. The n I l.. The transfer portal.. And the playoffs..
There is never a good time. You have to sacrifice to get a top notch.Coach

LSU fans didn't get restless with BK because he failed to win a natty. They got restless because we couldn't even make a 12-team playoff to give us a chance.

Hey guys we shouldn’t go after Steve Spurrier
Well, if you remember, it was rumored Spurrier had once partaken in smoking some of that ol devils lettuce and we surely didn't want to hire someone that evil.

Ok???? What kind of arse backwards logic is this?
So let’s not hire a guy because he might be successful enough that other schools/NFL teams want him and instead hire a guy that nobody else wants?
What a stupid take.
I’d rather a guy who comes in and wins big then leaves than a guy who sucks and we have to find a new coach in a few years anyway with nothing to show for it.

One thing I know about any hire made. You will be on here melting like a complete bitch the very first opportunity you get.

And will be the first person complaining the second LSU hires a coach who doesn't have enough skins of the wall.

Even if he wasn't entertaining offers, he's still fishing for a raise. It's definitley coached up from his agents. I think Kiffin stays at OM in the long run with his family situation, but he's trying to get paid for doing so.

Read what you wrote…
The only way these 2 statements align is if you think Ole Miss is a better program and spot to win a championship.

Lane isn't coming here; he's playing chess, and the administration at LSU is too oblivious to realize it. Keep LSU and Florida in the dark. His indecision is disrupting our recruitment efforts. If we don’t act soon, recruits will become impatient and sign with more stable programs. Transfers won’t consider coming here without knowing who the head coach will be; this is a strategic move. Ole Miss is likely to outplay LSU and Florida next year, as both schools are missing opportunities to improve while they wait for a coach who's occupied with the playoffs and has a strong chance of winning it all. We need to hire a coach who is ready to step in now, restore the program, and effectively sign recruits and transfers.

Hell if it was a 16-team playoff we wouldn't even be in it. Also it was due to the fact that we were never consistent in all three phases. First it was special teams which was never truly addressed until this season but was still underwhelming because they never played the best players on that unit. Then you had the best offense in the country in 2023 only to be paired with the worst defense in the country that same season. That was a lost season wasting a championship caliber offensive performance. Now you have a defense while not elite could win you games paired with the 2nd worst offense in the SEC and among the worst in the country. It was never any consistency nor accountability. If he's kept the offense and improved in the other two phases, he would still be here and in playoff contention.
You can't win every championship opportunity, but to not be in contention for it especially after coming out saying "we're keeping receipts", "see you in the National Championship", and "judge me in year 4" was bad and embarassing. That night against A&M brought things to a new low and should NEVER happen especially after what this program has been over the years.

You do understand the role of an agent, yes?
Also, if an individual isn't capable of having conversations regarding his future with a possible other employer, then I wouldn't want that person as my HC to begin with.

A leopard doesn't change his spots.... Kiffin has and will always do things that don't make sense.
No sane coach will go for it on 4th down inside his own 30 up by 2 scores.... it is his EGO that will always be his downfall, he's not going to change just becuase he might come to LSU.
