I personally haven’t heard much in regards to Berry. No news is good news kind of deal I would say.

I fully expect Frank to come after Berry, but Berry is from Louisiana and I know LSU has the NIL advantage over Ole Miss as well. My gut says Berry stays


You could see something when LSU announces more players for the Nike Blue Ribbon deal. Pickett and Green are already on there, which basically is ensuring they are locked down.

Looks like the time has come. LSU gets there guy.

For anyone that cared I’m glad I was able to share some info and it was pretty entertaining reading through this site.

Had been a lurker here and a buddy of mine said they would go crazy for info you could possibly share. So here we are.

I’ll probably share a post later this evening or early morning about the process of LSU hiring Lane and some of the other things discussed. Similar to this post when Kelly was let go.

Geaux Tigers!

In my last post probably around a week and a half ago I mentioned we scored when we were in the red zone.

Lane begged Verge and company to let him finish. Ole Miss also didn’t have the guts to push Kiffin out. Can’t blame them actually. And there was some contract issues with this as well.

However where we stand right now is that Layla will be in BR some point today. That is a fact.

From what I can understand Lane will be meeting AD to talk over scenarios and tell him in person he will take LSU job. However I have heard lane will be in Oxford until after the iron bowl supposedly now, just in case there was a scenario he would have to prep for an SEC title game. This if happened would cause a very weird scenario where LSU announces Lane on Monday, but he coaches Ole Miss in the title game and Ole Miss hires a new coach. Yes, that is a scenario. So, you will not hear anything ground breaking. Maybe some leaks like with football scoop already but not like a Chris Low or Thamel bomb until at least after the iron bowl.

Bottom line, let’s cheer for Alabama tonight and keep waiting like we have.

I’d circle Monday for major announcements

Good afternoon been a wild past 16 hours or so. Quite a bit of info and speculations going on. I mentioned on my last post here on 11/16/25 that there were heavy discussions and things got more serious in regards to Lane becoming the LSU coach.

Here’s my update as of now:
Right now at this second, there is Nothing signed. This is not a done deal. People telling you otherwise are simply pushing the button too quick. In that post I said we are in the red zone. We still remain in that situation. The longer this plays out the better for LSU. Ole Miss knows this and that is why they keep pushing this ultimatum. This put a little curveball in this process possibly speeding it up. Hold the line and don’t get your hopes up just yet. However I will say this, it is not a smoke screen. Lane is legitimately interested

Moving a little off the topic, it seems like more people are catching up to the Kenny Dillingham smoke I’ve been saying. He’s been heavily discussed with higher ups outside of Kiffin for awhile since at least late October when this whole process started. 10/27/25

We suck in the red zone. I guess that means he's Florida bound.

I laughed pretty good at this.

I’ll tell you this Florida is not being as patient as LSU is. They want Lane now, they keep pushing for a decision. The more this drags out the more it favors LSU. Florida is not gonna be bowl eligible. They also have Kliff heavily interested and the more they wait on Lane the more chance they lose Kliff. Remember Florida has had more time than LSU to get this search going.

See post above

Drink would bear crawl to BR right now if offered.

That’s about as worse as this will get.

So if LSU strikes out 3-4 candidates. It will at worse be Drink. I wouldn’t say that’s mid, maybe a little disappointing if anything

Hopped back on to share some updates. I see some threads saying Lane has been offered.

That’s been out there for awhile, Already said it here, 11/2/25 and here, 11/7/25

As mentioned in that post on the 7th, Saban smoke was real for a bit. No longer the case unfortunately. Good conversations with LSU, just happy where he is.

Lane still has an offer on the table from LSU. I’ve been told close to 14 million. LSU selling him on having full control and unlimited NIL support.

Issues obviously are around timetable with Lane and Ole Miss playoffs bound. Nowadays you want to have a coach and staff to help recruit transfers and keep guys remaining on the roster. Frank Wilson has to hold the line.


Besides Lane, I have mentioned and you can see in those posts that Dillingham remains a strong candidate and a very attractive pick among some LSU higher ups.

Freeman as mentioned burned some bridges, will not be him. Although he and verge are close. Wont be accepted by big money boosters.

Saw some Drink noise, and I believe LSU would have to strike out on several candidates. Likely Drink trying to get himself a raise if anything.

Right now it’s a narrow list , but Lane is still the top priority.

If I had to give you a list, it would be
Lane, Dillingham, and Riley.

Yes, Lincoln Riley. Not sure how much legs it has, but he will be a wildcard name to look out for.

I personally like Brohm. I think he’s solid.

However, have not heard his name much in regards to this search so far. Still early, but I think you can feel pretty confidently about scratching his name off.

I don’t see a 10 year deal for any coach. Haven’t heard a number for how many years they are offering Lane

All I know is they threw close to 14 million at him and his representatives. Promising Lane full control, and a big budget to buy any portal guys.
