Lane calling Finebaum rat poison in his press conference

Says good things tend to happen when Finebaum starts talking down on you
Really is scary how much like Saban Lane has become. Mannerisms, terminology, discipline.

I think that Lane and Paul have a Batman and Joker type of relationship.
Each needs the other to be the villain in their story.
That being said- frick Paul Finebaum.

You gotta believe Saban is somewhat living vicariously through Kiffin… to a degree it’s his chance to be a part of LSU again, though behind the scenes.

Saban’s rat poison comment originally referred to compliments rather than insults. He thought that too many compliments would make his players complacent.

I just listened to the clip. Apparently Finebaum did give us a rare compliment.

He also took the high road and said he likes Finebaum and understands he’s just playing to his shtick. I’m sure he’s being diplomatic

That’s how it came up in the press conference. I believe Finebaum sent a message to Kiffin along the lines of “congratulations that was a great performance” and Kiffin’s reply was “thanks for the rat poison.”

Saban is Lane's only Living Football Father.
"Lane. I am your father."
"Lane. I am your father."

Exactly what he’s doing . He gets on air and says what his superiors tell him to say .

Why is this scary?

No doubt.

Truth! The old Lane would have ripped him a new one and some. You can see his maturity has blossomed. He just looks so calm and at peace.

He did not call him rat poison- he said that saying all the great things about LSU could be counter productive

Lane called Saban for advice on taking the LSU job…..
Saban: “geaux finish what I started”
