He’s been there, done that. Only reason he would go back would be him getting burned out on the transfer portal. He’s 50, he might be thinking his next stop is his last stop, Knox is almost done with HS.

If he's having the success to be in demand then that's a great thing.

How often do failed NFL coaches have success in college and go back to the NFL?

I'm not sure he cares about the NFL at this point?

And if he gets us a few playoff births and maybe a national championship before that eventuality, great!!!

Walk with me.

You have been working your job dutifully for the past few years. In fact, you’ve been consistently doing it well.

This year, you’ve been knocking it out of the park.

A couple of your employer’s fiercest competitors have taken note and have decided to offer you significantly more money to do the same thing for them.

This is quite flattering, because you haven’t exactly been passing around your resume. Your efforts are being noticed in a big way.

If you decide to listen or even take the offer, does this make you a bad person or does it make you human?

Better for him to come, be successful and leave than him or someone else come and fail and we have to fire him for a billion dollar buyout

Of course we could be. Ole Miss is dealing with this with him because he has brought them to a consistency they haven’t seen in very very long time. If he does that here then that means we will be in the playoffs competing for championships on regular basis with legit chance of winning. If that happens we will hear NFL chatter on the regular but don’t really see him leaving for another college program if he has that kind of success here. He remembers Saban saying his biggest regret was leaving us. We will hear it but as long as he has no NFL desires then I think it will be just rumors that will eventually go away as he continues to stay

As long as while he’s here we win, who gives a shite if he leaves. Time marches on, find the next one

Lane will be too old and too rich to pull this shite again after he wins 7 NCs.

Go ahead and ban me now and call me what you want, but hopefully he gets us some significant wins and maybe a championship or two.


This could also be the biggest troll job in history…


Like you noted, if Lane comes here and say coaches 7 years and wins an NC or 2, I am good with that. In my lifetime here are the Coaches at LSU

Mac (18 years 62-79) I was alive 16 of those. Fired
Stovall (4 years, 80-83)) Fired
Arnsparger (3 years, 84-86) left on his own.
Archer (4 years 87-90) Fired.
Hallman (4 years 91-94) Fired.
DiNardo (5 years 95-99) Fired
Saban (5 years, 2000-2004) left on his own
Miles (11 full years + 4 games into 12th, 2005-2016) fired
O (6 years 2016-2021) fired.
BK (4 years 2022-2025). Fired

So if we look back at the coaches I noted, of the 10, only 3 made it more than 5 years. All were fired save Saban and Arnsparger. Coaches don't last long period.

If Kiffin comes to LSU and lets say coaches at least 7 years, more than anyone in the time period I noted save Mac and Miles, and wins as you say an NC or 2. 100% good with that.

Hes at om for 6 seasons Whats the problem?


And 4 years ago, when he was there for 2 (really less than that based on when the openings occurred) he was reportedly willing to crawl over broken glass to either coach here or Florida. Why didn’t they hire him then??? Could it be because of his sloppy arse reputation?
