Why isn’t Verge playing Sexton’s game?

Fly in another coach or two to BTR. Leak information. Plant “insiders” stating they are only using Sexton to drive up the price for Ole Miss as their real target is “x”?

Verge is getting played. Play harder.

I think that might have happened. They aren’t flying anyone in no.

But I feel like LSU and Florida have both made it clear in the rumors that they can easily move on. And it’s true. There are many candidates.

Sexton has more power than LSU, that is why.

It sucks he has been allowed this much power.

Wonder how much Verge is taking advice from Saban and Sexton as well here on how to approach Kiffin.

My unfounded suspicion is they are all playing the Trace Armstrong game.



We are using the Lane circus to negotiate with a different sexton client who doesn’t want the attention.

Sexton is using this to drive up the price on OM and UF. LSU is more than willing to have them drain their coffers.

Additionally it also resets the narrative on the coaching search to show LSU has gotten itself in order.


I mean when is the last time that a flight itinerary leaked in a coaching search like this.

Why do you think they have not talked to others?

Entertaining other candidates right now might not be the best play here.

Everyone needs to quit pussy footing around and hurry up and say what they have to say instead of playing stupid childish games and beating around the bush.

No respect for the trolls including the coaches themselves.

Own it.

If by some miracle LSU and UF went a different direction BEFORE Kiffin made a decision, would Sexton’s “power” take a hit? Would the universe not come together and rejoice?

It absolutely is. Putting all eggs in a single basket is a really dumb strategy.

Agreed, and no one knows if we are. There’s been smoke about Dillingham

So do what you have to to get him to fly in and let it “leak”.

You might be giving LSU too much credit, but I could see Sexton doing this. It’s an interesting theory. I don’t think it’s right, but interesting.
