Best 15 minutes I've seen recapping why Lane picked us and why he'll thrive here.

Definitely channels the consensus of what we all know to be true. Such a good rant by McShay.

Content starts at 2:05

He does, is he still with ESPN because he’s completely different now. For the better.

As much as I don't like Steven a smith, he has been in our corner.

Danny Kanell backed Kiffin on the Cover 3 podcast. He says he doesn’t understand the outrage and that media members would do the same with that type of opportunity.

LaVar Arrington and Brady Quinn (Fox Sports Radio) both said him coming to LSU was a no brainer

Of course Tom Forgayli had awful takes on the whole situation and acted like Lane Kiffin was inconveniencing him.

Stephen A. Smith, Dan O. have said pretty much the same. And this quote “So listen, this is Harbaugh to Michigan, Lane Kiffin to LSU. It’s massive. It’ll be controversial. It’ll be great for the sport. And one of the little guys gets burned. I don’t lose sleep on this stuff because I’ve been watching it my entire life, but wasn’t this bound to happen if you hired Kiffin?” is attributed to Colin Cowherd. Saying Kiffin is the equivalent of Harbaugh to Michigan is as high of praise as you can give a coach.

Some of you people are looking for a reason to play the role of the victim. Plenty of national media have supported this move.

Action item#1- get rid of this stupid early signing period. Go back to making seniors finish HS on the regular calendar.

I dont think so. I think he had a drinking problem. got clean and is now killing it.

After last year I will never watch Mel Kyper again, he was clearly paid by the Sanders family to pimp Shadeur.

Off topic but I was watching Kiper lose his mind on tv and was amazed. I know it is all about hot takes and bringing energy but Kiper was literally emotional, yelling at every NFL franchise for not believing him about Shadeur. I think some of the ESPN co-hosts finally had enough and started pushing back.

Mcshay is one of the better college podcast out there. Its pretty insightful most Sundays on his recap shows if you haven't ever checked it out.

Player: I want to transfer to this school because they offer greater exposure, more resources, and a better chance to succeed.

Media: The world is now a better place

Coach: I want to coach at this school because they offer greater exposure, more resources, and a better chance to succeed.

Media: You sir, are a piece of shite.


This is our actual reality.
