re: Devil’s advocate question: if Kiffin is so great, why are current LSU coaches not staying?

Short answer….because they sucked at their jobs and Lane can do whatever he wants.

BAHAAAAAHAAAAA. YES. WILL BE BAD!

Who said they were offered to stay?

????????

I didn’t know people this dumb about football existed. I also think you have set a down vote record.


You are either a troll Ole Miss fan or need to take a look in the mirror baw.

I get what you're saying and it makes sense. Some fans refuse to face the reality of the situation, but let him a few games, and those same fans will be calling for his firing.

IMO, I wish he would have gotten rid of the entire defensive staff. Our defense was improved, but they were no where near elite by any means. Blake Baker has been at LSU for two years - plenty of time to correct our problems - and we still can't stop a running QB.

LSU fans constantly boast about our defense because our offense was so putrid, anything the defense did was going to stand out. I consider Baker an average DC, but hopefully with Kiffin around we can score enough points to overcome Baker's shortcomings. Once he learns how to stop a running QB, I'll consider him a better than average DC.

Is it weird to feel an odd sense of pride about this? Clearly I asked a question that has elicited high volume and strong reactions. Chicken - what is the record? Do I get a prize?

Because some people are actually thinking through the question and not having a knee-jerk reaction. Like I said - plenty of receipts around here of people who just a few days ago were saying Frank Wilson should be retained in some capacity. But now that he's going to Ole Miss, he's a bum?!? Kiffin clearly was trying to work it out with him otherwise why would he have stayed and be coaching in the bowl game. Did no one wonder if Frank loves LSU so much and he now has a legit shot at winning with Kiffin at the helm, why would he not stay?

this is worse than op . take a look at our defense if you remove parts of the vandy game and the second half against aggie. we would probably rank top 3 without those . as of now were probably top 25 on d
