Ole Miss is in a really bad spot right now. Lane is coming to LSU. LSU is not forcing his hand to come right this second. Ole Miss does not want him to coach the playoff. However, the only way for them to officially do that is to fire him and pay him a $36 million buyout. Ole Miss is trying to figure this all out which is what's delaying the announcement.

Can't the just tell him to stay home, and also employed? They have to have had power, they are his boss.

I think anyone that has been following this and has a basic level of comprehension, understands this already.

Does his contract not have a mitigation clause?

There’s nothing to figure out - it’s a Cold War situation unless Lane willingly leaves or they find a way to get him to leave for cause.

We’re both in a bad spot right now, If you can’t see that, I don’t know how to help you.

It's not an ideal spot for LSU, but I wouldn't call it bad.

None.

Keith Carter isn’t going to give him $40 to walk away and Lane appears to be digging his heels in.

This shite is going to get weird unless both sides agree to something that actually works for all parties.

I keep hearing Ole Miss can be slick and suspend him without firing him. Let’s see them do it. LOL, either way LSU gets their man

So they’re going to torpedo their best ever season, as well as their future by not hiring another coach?
