Kiffin goes to celebrate with #44 Jones on that stop, and Jones looks like he wants nothing to do with Kiffin...reluctantly giving him a half arse half hug at the end.

If Lane wants to stay at OM, he looks like he has work to do to win back that locker room. I imagine the staff also feels the same way

Source that $40 million commitment

Was surprised to here Doering actually concede this point as well. Even the blind squirrel found the nut today

Hail State! (Is that the right cheer for today?)

Chambliss may not get awarded the extra year, but what about Simmons? He was playing well before he got hurt.

But, would Leavitt be the better option?

I am not saying I don't believe you about everything. But, if Golding head coaches OM for the playoff run instead of Judge, you proved yourself to be more credible than even the OM "insiders" because all of them believe Judge will be installed as the acting head coach "if Lane leaves for LSU". I got my popcorn ready!

Facts! I was like, "Damn, ChatGPT! How did you go from Kiffin to tits? You really are giving me good info for Tigerdroppings!"

I started with On3's most recent update on the list and broke it down to historically most-reliably, highly-accurate sources regarding Sexton and/or Turnkey clients. Here is the ChatGPT breakdown:

“Who’s most accurate on Jimmy Sexton and/or Turnkey clients?”



From your trusted list, the hierarchy looks like:

1. For LSU-related Sexton outcomes:
?? Ross Dellenger (clear #1)


2. For big national Turnkey/Sexton searches broadly:
?? Bruce Feldman (with Pete Thamel in the same tier, though he’s not in your On3 poll list)


3. For “final outcome” reliability across the board:
?? McMurphy is very solid, but not uniquely better than Feldman/Dellenger in this lane


4. For Kiffin-flavored messaging and tone, not necessarily first-to-the-truth:
?? Chris Low

3?? How I’d weight them for this Kiffin search

If you’re thinking in betting-style tiers for this decision (Kiffin + Sexton + LSU/UF/OM):

Tier 1 (heaviest weight)

Ross Dellenger (LSU / Sexton / Baton Rouge power circles)

Bruce Feldman (agent/search-firm level intel)


Tier 2 (still important)

Brett McMurphy (final-outcome guy)


Tier 3 (influential but Kiffin-colored)

Chris Low



So when Dellenger & Feldman are both on LSU, and Low is on Ole Miss, that’s why I keep telling you the needle tilts pretty hard toward Baton Rouge unless something fundamental changes.

I am hoping that is the case, especially in this coaching cycle where so many schools are looking for a coach and there are so few. He is a good coach. I just think he lost interest in being at LSU for some reason. It seemed like he thought it was an automatic championship that he could come in here, quickly achieve, and retire. When it didn't happen right away, he checked out.

Agreed.

If O wants to be on staff, I think he could really bring energy and passion for LSU ... something these youngsters being spoiled by NIL could benefit from. He also would likely still pay off as a valuable recruiter.

But, a technician like Joyner, with a recent track record of success, would be best on the field.
