Didn’t Ed originally promise to bring in Lane as OC in 2016?

Certainly Lane could find a spot for his old friend in the new regime. Wouldn’t be a terrible idea.

That’s like hiring Bobby Patrino as your OC or signing Ryan Fitzpatrick as your backup qb. Nothing good will happen.

Ed as OC would certainly be a head scratcher.

Thinking more along the lines of DL coach / recruiting.

No thanks. Keep him away from the program.

As a condition of his hire with the binders. He lied. Kiffen was never coming. Despite what Lane says.

Lane was going to be OC but Saban helped get Kiffin the head job at FAU to keep him away from LSU...

The only affiliation O should have with the program is maybe as like a PR guy who says funny stuff and takes pictures with fans. He's good at that.
