If Kiffin comes to LSU, do we have to deal with NFL rumors every year like Saban?

I feel like he would want to eventually go the Pete Carroll route. Get out of recruiting and go coach in the league. NFL coaches these days are more his mold than ever before, young offensive minded, players coach type guys.
I guess that would mean he's winning here though.

Yep. Look at how he’s been stringing Ole Miss along. That will be us every year.

Not a bad thing. That would mean he’s succeeding.

Yes, unless he sucks

I don't think so because Lane has already done the NFL thing. His social media presence and his personality fit better in the college game and he can probably make the same amount of money at both.

You want your coach to succeed or nah?

No, once Lane Kiffin arrives in Baton Rouge he’s going to change his entire personality. No more wandering eyes, no more drama, no chaos, just winning and pure bliss for everyone in purple and gold.

The deal should be, "We have you forever, baw. $100m buyout if you leave, dropping $15m per year."

Yes, especially if he is as successful as he should be here
It will be every single year
This is why I'd rather look elsewhere

Nearly 20 years ago, with one of, maybe the most difunctional franchise in the league. Nevertheless, college football has changed a LOT since then.

The money is mostly the same. The difference is being a college coach is a bigger pain in the arse. The NFL has more uniformity and, most importantly, no recruiting. A NFL coach gets an actual offseason. A college coach (at least one that wants to be really good) has to constantly recruit, basically begging 16, 17, 18 year old kids to come play for him. That's long been the case. But now the coach has to constantly recruit his own roster. There is no certainty in the roster beyond one season, and the "market" is unregulated in the sense there are no employment contracts. The players are leveraging the coaches any time, all the time. The HC also has to be part fundraiser too.
Frankly, unless you just don't like living in a large city or don't like the intense competition where there are not "cupcakes", I don't know why any great football coach would want to be a college HC if he had a chance to be a NFL HC.

So you'd rather have an average to below average HC whom no one wants simply to avoid the risk of him leaving for another job? That risk is the cost of great success.
Give me the coach EVERYONE wants...because that means he's doing things better than everyone else.

If Kiffin comes to LSU we’ll have to deal with some kind of drama constantly. That is how Kiffin operates.
Not sure why we want him. He hasn’t won anything and his entire history is that he sows chaos and heartache wherever he goes. He calmed down for a few years at Ole Miss, but look what he is doing to them now.

Correct.
First of all, his NFL experience was AWFUL, worse than Saban’s. Not record wise, but dealing with meddling owners and terrible scouting and professional players he had to win over that didn’t choose to be where they were drafted. In contrast, dude has looked happy as can be at every single college stop, even at UT before SC called him back where he never wanted to leave.
Second, even if NFL teams are calling, it’s because we are winning and his offenses are still lighting up the country.
Saban left for the NFL and we rode what he built to the greatest decade in history with a coach many claim was a complete buffoon, they are wrong, but still.
Give me a coach that leaves for Sundays every time over firing bust coaches every three years, which is what we’ve become. We are Auburn and Florida and UT right now.
Lane would be our next Saban, but I think he already got the NFL out of his system.

That's not at all what I'm saying
I'm saying he'll always be looking for 'the next big thing'

You can be virtually certain Kiffin will pull will I stay or go every year. Trolling is part of him. I think that s what he’s doing now.
