Kiffin should not be the hire

Lane Kiffin’s a great offensive mind and a very good X’s and O’s guy. When it comes to being a great leader, he leaves something to be desired.
Listen to his press conferences. He makes excuses (talking about how we bought our defense this year leading up to our game), complains, and generally lacks the demeanor of a great leader of men. While a head coach should have great insight about the game, being a great leader is arguably more important when managing so many other coaches and players, especially in a day and age of NIL and so many players taking a mercenary approach. I don’t think that’s Kiffin.

Stop overthinking it. Kiffin would be a great hire.

Lane would be a home run hire and you know what you’re going to get. He would have an elite offense here and have us in the playoff hunt every year.

Every defense he has ever fielded as HC sucks.

Recruits want to play for Lane - give him the financial backing we gave BK and we are a contender every year

I agree 100%.

Man you would never have to worry about offense or a QB.

The one that just played us didn’t suck.

How? Kiffin will be the most expensive coach in this cycle. We won't be able to afford anymore talent than what he has currently at OM. We need a guy that can either win with a talent disadvantage or a guy that comes cheap enough to still spend a lot on our roster. Kiffin is neither of those and is as soft as Kelly. This would be extremely disappointing

I don't get you anti-kiffin guys. kiffin has been maturing through the years. he's done a helluva job at Ole miss.

He wants Landry closer to Whit
Posted on 10/26/25 at 7:46 pm to Tigerfan016
He will not be. 1st he is probably in the playoffs which means he is not available till after January. 2nd he only wants 1 job, Bama

Based on fricking what? Remind me what has Lane Kiffin won? What has he done at any stop as a head coach aside from getting fired or leaving for more money?
Yall are ridiculous.

I agree
But, I don't think he's going to make a huge step at LSU and there seems to be an assumption he will. And his results at Ole Miss would put him on the Brian Kelly hot seat.
*ETA: he's also going to be INSANELY expensive.

Depends how the funds work with the portal. Is Austin Thomas still GM? Lane doesn’t want to recruit high school that much. Not saying it’s a bad thing. Could be a good marriage.

Kiffin already makes 9M a year.
Ole Miss is printing money at the moment on this run. And will make the playoff.
They will pony up to keep him.

He literally just fielded a top 10 defense last year…. Good job showing people that you don’t actually pay attention to his teams though.

He had a Top 5 defense last year at Ole Miss. Their offense shite the bed a few times costing them the playoffs.

This is the kind of dumb thinking that gets you Brian Kelly. Most people in Lane’s generation don’t behave like “leaders of men” of yesteryear
