Boy, we thought the MSM was so pissed when LSU signed BK from their beloved ND

They were livid when LSU paid Saban 1.2/yr (roughly) when first hired…there was just no social media to fan the flames.

Guess we'll just have to play the villain role!

Looking forward to it. I’m hoping we play like villains on the field, too.

I want LSU to be the modern day version of 70’s Raiders on the field.

Pawwl Finebaum because Kiffin went to LSU:

"It's just so typical of Lane Kiffin to do something so utterly destructive. And that's what he did ... If he wanted to coach these kids, as he put it, he could have. And the simple answer is he would have remained the Ole Miss football coach... And what does he do? What Lane Kiffin always does. He lights a match to the castle that he built, and he runs out of town in the middle of the night.

Pawwl Finebaum had it been Bama, USC, Ohio State, or Notre Dame

"These schools have an obligation to go out and do the best they can for their student athletes and put the best pieces in place to go with a national championship. They have no responsibility to Ole Miss and their team, they need to do what is best for themselves. It's unfortunate that the circumstances made it so that it played out this way, but that's not ______'s fault, blame the calendar. He's the best coach on the market, and you do what you have to do to get him to your campus."

Yup. They would have praised Florida for hiring kiffin. Said its the next coming of Spurrier, etc. Praised Florida for being open to letting him and his oc coach them in playoffs. Boo ole miss for not letting him coach his players he cares about.

Who gives a crap what the MSM things about us.

Lets ride.

I never bought into the "media/espn/etc. hates LSU" bit. It's feeling kind of difficult to conclude otherwise with this Kiffin BS though.

If you spend any amount of time thinking about the situation like a serious adult and not an emotional child, you understand why things broke the way they did. LSU was not going to wait until mid January to let Kiffin see if he could win a title at Ole Miss or not and then get left twisting in the wind like Penn State is. Ole Miss was not going to let LSU's next head coach hang around for a month recruiting the whole roster in the transfer portal era.

So the bottom line is, Kiffin's two options were to leave for LSU when he did, or to stay at Ole Miss. So if you have a problem with Kiffin leaving, it's because you wanted him at Ole Miss or you didn't want him at LSU. Or you're just ignorant and haven't thought through it for five seconds.

And we know none of these people clutching pearls right now have any love or sympathy for the Mississippi Rebels... and they shouldn't get to hide behind ignorance when their entire job is being informed about this stuff.

They'll hide behind bullshite like "oh, Lane at Ole Miss was a good story." What's so good about it? Lane was the story. Not Ole Miss. How do you know Lane at LSU won't be a good story? What does it even mean to BE a "good story"? That's just another way to say you like how things were and don't like how things are. In other words, you either wanted him at Ole Miss or didn't want him at LSU... see above.

Keep it real... these people don't REALLY like either Lane or LSU. They like both as punchlines not worthy of their respect. Jesters. And to be fair, both parties have given them plenty of ammo over the years. But now this union might result in something truly great, and they're flipping their shite over it. Equal parts eager anticipation for Lane and LSU to fail, so they can go back to mocking laughter, and fear that they won't.

frick em all!

"I like to hit people hard. You feelin me! I like to tell em where I'm from and hit em hard!" that's what he said and what I want to hear from all of them from here on out.

Why is everyone so mad about it if he's such a bad guy. They should be happy he's gone..

I would have thought we'd have learned to ignore them by now. I guess not.
