If it’s all a formality, a done deal, etc. as everyone on here claims, why has no media member broken the story? Thamel, Dellenger, Low..it’s the story of the year in CFB. Would be a nice scalp on their wall.

Because no-one wants to be the national a-hole.

If it were a done deal, we would know. I think we land him, but it’s not over yet.

I won't pretend to know for sure where he's going. But, it's overly obvious that he's leaving.

Hays on the back of the wagon but there’s bandits out, barns doors are open and waiting but hay isn’t in there yet.

Gag order is in place, according to On3 insider. Lane is coming to LSU and don't expect to get many more real updates until the dam breaks and everyone finds out.

Because it’s not time yet. If LSU (or whatever other school) breaks it that could piss off kiffin and blow it up. If ole miss breaks it they further make the situation there more toxic with the team and fans before their playoff birth

One of our connected guys (iowacitytigerfan) said late last week that LSU had a gag order in place. I've run with the theory that we're truly not going to know it's done until the story is published by ESPN

They can't break a story they don't have.

They can't break the story until they can verify it and no one can verify anything in writing until after the Egg Bowl because Lane isn't signing anything until after the game. You can get leaks from people that are involved in the process, but no journalist with integrity is going to fabricate a story because of impatience. They would lose all credibility.

Sexton is doing what he does. He's bouncing offers around to drive it up as high as he can for Lane (and indirectly Kirby). Lane is trying to focus on the game and figure out what he wants to do. He's interested in LSU and he's interested in Florida. Only he knows which one he wants more and he has a formal offer from both teams that he is considering.

You can’t report on potential news. “All but a formality” needs the formality to report it.

More clicks over more days.

Ie, the answer is money. Now what was the question?

I think it’s safe to say at this point that while some of our resident insiders have SOME info, they aren’t as close to the situation as we/they originally thought

I wonder why Lane won’t just say he’s staying at Ole Miss and signing the extension? How much trouble is it to say a few words?

This^^^.
Once I hear pretty solid proof that Florida is looking elsewhere, I’ll feel like Lane to LSU is a done deal.
