Totally agree with you. Seems like a big circus and he can go on game day today and have his Jordan Belfort moment.

I find it hard to believe his brother would be a leaker...unless it was a purposeful leak to squeeze a last bit out of LSU.

I see no way he stays at Ole Miss...you put them through all this to stay?? I'm not saying it can't happen, but it would be mind blowing to me that he would cause that much collateral damage and distrust with the place he would stay. And if they lose today...NFW.

The NFL could also be in play. NFL hiring season isn't until mid January, so if he decided to pursue a job there, he just stays at OM for the rest of the season and then they are going through this all over again in a month and a half.

So if he doesn’t choose LSU, last rumor I saw was Blake Baker. Any truth to this? No way I believe they didn’t have a plan B or C when dealing with Kiffin. And of all the coordinators, Is BB the best we can get? We would seem to be screwed if this doesn’t fall into place. But we’ve grown used to mediocrity around this program, except for the 1 greatest season ever.


When our defense looked like the best in the country early on I said repeatedly I’d send Kelly out tomorrow to keep him as our HC and not lose a potential up and coming star. Didn’t think it would actually come to fruition

I’ve heard that Blake Baker theory as well but why didn’t we make him the interim…

I’ll be honest if we don’t get Lane I’ll be bummed
But I do feel like we’ve got other options
Before going to baker

I'm not melting if we don't land Kiffin. We have a damn good coach 40mins down the road at Tulane.

Florida doesn’t, nor does LSU or OM.
Lane agreed to terms with all three schools weeks ago, none of them binding just understandings. He has been trying to decide since then, and has told all three he is interested in the offers.

Lane has been undecided for weeks, no facts have ever been presented by each school or media, nothing that can be proved. All message board chatter and “guesses” from the media. Sexon is brilliant at what he does and will get the best deal for his client. Like it or not it has been remarkable to follow his moves.

Never ever was anything a done deal. This is what message boards are for, to drive up chatter and traffic.

The zero leaks has made it a pretty solid guess that Lane still has no clue where he wants to go

He is a man. He used two schools to maximize his deal.

People wanting this to be over are probably going to be disappointed

The OM AD is the one forcing a decision, and I think he will pivot from that position after a win today

LSU has told Kiffin we would wait. Ideally for LSU, it would be nice if Carter forced the issue in order to get things started in BR, but LSU is not going to let the recruiting and portal calendar dictate the outcome of their search

Kiffin was going to UF before LSU entered the chat. Now he’s going to LSU.

Seems like he was and leveraged his situation very well.
