Ole Miss acting like losing Lane Kiffin and hiring Pete Golding was a great move. They don’t realize they are back to being irrelevant.

They still need to figure this NIL thing out, buyouts is a bad look. It probably needs to be whatever number they agree on divided into monthly payments. If you leave the paychecks stop.

Trying to sue a college kid for a buyout isn’t the right play.

Ole Miss football is being run by an AD who is more suited to manage an Enterprise-Rent-a-Car and a HC more suited to be an operator at a plant.

They didn’t pay for our assistants coaching them in the playoffs. Countersuit.

On the one hand, I think these kids that sign for these NIL contracts that contain buyouts should be held to those buyouts. You wanna be paid just like coaches and everybody else? Fine, but you also don't get to hide behind being "just a college kid" when the negative side of the business comes back.


On the other hand, Ole Miss comes across looking incredibly insecure and petty, not to mention hypocritical given their own hand that was played in tampering this cycle.

I see it differently. These college players whined and complained that they didn't have a seat at the financial table like everyone else and they have pretty much gotten their way at every turn since NIL launched. They don't get to play victim when they get held to contractual language that they agreed to.

i lived in Memphis for many years. Tuberville did a job bringing them back to relevance and when he left in the night all you heard was how they upgraded with Cutcliffe and Tuberville was trash. The Ole Miss football A "Cut" above shirts were everywhere

Eli Manning graduates and Michael Spurlock was going to be better because he could run.

Eli threw bad passes in games but he only threw it there to make sure his receivers could work on makin hard catches.

Ole Miss is 35-0 at home at night or whatever the number was and in fine print was (against non conference teams) but you sill had to hear about it constantly

Every loss was about the gritty Rebs fought to the end (Similar to the McMen here with our basketball program)

They could come up with more BS and sell it to the fanbase and off they went with the message. As an outside fanbase you really just wanted to beat your head against the wall listening to it

They can sue the players, but I don’t see where LSU is involved? The contracts aren’t with LSU. They can try and collect from the individual players.

It will be a glorious day when Ole Miss stops being in the public eye. Give it two years and they will fall out of the National Media's attention.

Oh yea, piss off the LSU head coach, the LSU fans, and now the LSU players.

Great move



That said, a contract is a contract. If these two really did break contractual agreements, then I have no problem with this.

Correct. I still love how Ole Mrs thinks it’s a good idea to go public with this

I'm glad we're not the ones talking about doing it for the first time, but I think all schools should start doing it. Ole Miss will just get the warts being the first to do it.

Ole Miss is going to try and spin it in the press as "LSU should cover the buyouts and won't support their players".

Ole Miss is making it really easy to recruit against them.

Every other SEC school will just tell the players, "Don't sign there, if you ever try to leave, they'll drag you into court like a pissed off ex."

Good luck with that strategy, SharkyRebBears.

So is OM going to pay the buyout for the kid they stole from Clemson after he was already attending classes?

So kids can’t leave the OM program or they owe OM buyout money, but they can tamper with a kid who is in classes and that’s okay? I’m a little confused by their logic.

Ole Miss had 21 players transfer out. Are they going after others or just two of the four that went to LSU.

They’re just planting stories for media to bring up next week when Lane finally speaks for the first time in two months.

They are more worried about sticking it to LSU than they are winning games vs other teams. That's all they seem to care about.
