Football won’t be until Friday most likely

re: How much $ is our woodside jersey patch bringing in a year?

Posted by bigbonvi on 7/29/26 at 9:52 pm to bayoubaw18

Probably fake news. But on instagram and facebook a lot of chatter from ole piss fans being mad about rumors Raising Canes being their jersey patch. No fricken way….right? Don’t see it anywhere else. Probably trolls.

I do think it’s funny they have a raising canes on campus. They have been bitching about it since we hired Lane.

Fun History about Lane Kiffin

Posted by bigbonvi on 7/19/26 at 11:27 am

Lane Kiffin: Why the “crazy journey”

The reality is a lot more interesting than that

His story starts with his dad

Monte Kiffin wasn’t just a football coach. He’s one of the greatest defensive minds the game has ever seen. He helped create the Tampa 2 defense that dominated the NFL and won a Super Bowl with the Bucs. Around football circles, Monte was respected. He wasn’t flashy. He was known for being brilliant, disciplined, and incredibly loyal.

Imagine growing up with that.?

some kids have dads who coach Little League. Lane grew up around NFL meeting rooms, Bill Parcells, Tony Dungy, Pete Carroll, Warren Sapp, Derrick Brooks, and Hall of Fame coaches. Football wasn’t something he watched. It was literally the family business.

However, Lane wasn’t some superstar player who became a coach

He was a backup quarterback at Fresno State

And not just a backup…

His senior season changed everything

David Carr, yes, the future 1 overall NFL Draft beat him out. Carr was simply more talented.

So instead…

Lane walked back onto the practice field 30 minutes after his decision wearing a polo shirt instead of a jersey

He became a student assistant

He coached at Fresno State

Colorado State

Jacksonville Jaguars

Then Pete Carroll hired him at USC

That’s where people first realized this guy’s football IQ was on another level

Matt Leinart won the Heisman

Reggie Bush won the Heisman

Then…

At just 31 years old, he became the youngest head coach in modern NFL history when the Raiders hired him

Think about that

Al Davis was one of the toughest owners

They clashed constantly

Eventually Davis fired him publicly

He literally held a press conference calling his own coach a liar

That would’ve ended a lot of careers

Instead…

Lane became Tennessee’s head coach

Again…

Too young

Too fast

He was trying to lead grown men while still learning how to be a head coach himself

Then USC called

His dream job

He left Tennessee after one season

Tennessee fans still haven’t forgiven him

At USC things started well…

Then NCAA sanctions hit

Scholarship reductions

Roster issues

Lane got pulled off the team

Fired

At that point…something happened that changed everything

Nick Saban called

Saban saw an offensive genius

It wasn’t always smooth

Those two argued all the time

But they respected each other

Together they changed college football

After Alabama…

Lane took over FAU

Then Ole Miss

His offenses became some of the most creative in football

Portal recruiting fit his mold

All in all,

Sometimes you need to get humbled… repeatedly

Lane has been fired

Embarrassed

Mocked

Memed

Questioned

He became a national punchline

But every stop taught him something

Today he looks like someone who’s finally become the coach he probably always had the potential to be. not because everything went right, but because almost everything went wrong first

It’s kind of ironic

The kid who couldn’t beat David Carr for the starting quarterback job…

The coach who got fired on an airport tarmac…

The guy everyone laughed at…

Ended up becoming one of the most innovative offensive minds in modern football

Maybe Monte Kiffin taught him the most important lesson of all that day at Fresno State:

You don’t quit

Only two teams that generate a profit are football and men’s basketball. Everything else loses money. Football team gets massive tv and ticket sales. The men’s basketball get the tv deal, which makes enough to compensate for poor ticket sales. But ticket sales alone for the small pmac and skip bertman field are not enough to turn a profit for baseball and women’s basketball.women’s basketball did get some Primetime tv games this year so maybe they get more for that? But historically only football and men’s basketball make money period.

re: Jersey Patches official Approved

Posted by bigbonvi on 1/23/26 at 2:00 pm to Portcityblues

I think the vote passed was for up to 2 patches. And at different times. Like pregame warmup, during game, post game or practice. I wonder what restrictions they will have on what to spend the money on

Jersey Patches official Approved

Posted by bigbonvi on 1/23/26 at 1:49 pm

NCAA jersey patches are projected to generate significant revenue, with top college football programs potentially earning $3.5 million to $6 million annually, and top men's basketball programs earning up to $2.2 million per year. Total annual valuations for premier schools can reach $12 million
LSU already has a deal with Wooside Energy.
