Lane Kiffin to LSU?
agree, as I had indicated. Well, as a very senior exec who has done it myself, and having seen other critical senior execs do it, that doesn't always happen. But yes, most of the time they are walked out immediately. But your point about the HC being the whole team is why I'm arguing that they should have let him do it. When a normal company senior exec is leaving, there is plenty of infrastructure and resources in place to go on without significant risk of having a terrible near-term result. A head coach leaving most of the time torpedoes a team's chances, except for Michigan basketball Fab Five. However, all of this may be a moot point. Given that Ole Miss just announced Golding as the permanent head coach, then it is now completely clear why they couldn't let Kiffin coach. They've got their permanent new coach and they immediately now need to go to war with Kiffin to keep as many players and coaches as possible. I totally get Ole Miss's move now.

2025 CFB Polls/Rankings Thead
Wow. I always laugh at people complaining about the polls because usually the views are biased. But Texas being at 14 while OU is at 8 and Vandy is at 12/13, is ridiculous. Something's up.

Lane Kiffin to LSU?
Again, I'm not necessarily defending Kiffin, because I don't even really like him, but I haven't interpreted the recent events as Kiffin handling it poorly. Maybe I don't have all the information, but from my perspective he had to decide by the end of the regular season because that is what LSU required. He was respectful yesterday by not muddying up the final game of the season by Ole Miss with his employment status. He's in an impossible position and has offered the best possible soluiton to Ole Miss, coach thru the playoffs to try and win it all. And having his family fly to Baton Rouge on a booster jet is unneccesary drama? Please. That's ridiculous. Is there some other drama I've missed?

Transfer Cycle 2025-2026 - This Is Fine
- Lane Kiffin to LSU?
Are you saying this because of the supposed ultimatum? Or because he is leaving at all. Employees leave jobs all the time and have a notice period to finish up their work. Thereās no bitch move in that. Now if you are saying itās because of the ultimatum then I agree. But why was there an ultimatum in the first place? Because Ole Miss wouldnāt let him coach. Now he has 100% of his time to devote to LSU. It would have been significantly less than 100%. Agreed- Lane Kiffin to LSU?
It seems like Kiffin is in the wrong here. But, hereās a bit of a half-ass thought. I know an employer wants an exiting employee gone asap, especially when they are going to one of your main rivals. But in this one instance, Ole Miss has a chance to win it all for the first time in a long time. And tying up your ex-coach for the next month working on the playoffs, instead of devoting all his time on LSU could benefit Ole Miss both ways. And maybe Kiffin really wants to try and win it all and do it for himself and his players, and Ole Miss not budging on the issue led to whatās happening now. I have to admit I would almost never consider letting a coach stay, but in this situation I might have. Kiffin is taking players and coaches anyway. If you can keep them together for a playoff run, it might be worth it. Ha thatās what Iām thinking. See above.- Trumps War on drugs, Venezuela and Colombia

you're right. it's not a difficult concept. You're making a comparison that has no value or point.- 2027 WR Easton Royal
Why is so much talent leaving, and is there something the staff should have done differently? One thing I have wondered about is why they go get upper classmen transfers like Mosley, whoās been good but not great, while leaving several 4/5 star freshmen on the bench. Both transfers and freshmen have to learn the new offense. Is it just too unrealistic to rely on freshmen? Or, is WR development really that dramatic? Or, did they just find these 4/5 star freshmen WRās just didnāt live up to their rating? The situation doesnāt seem to make much sense.- Texas vs. Texas A&M - 6:30pm on ABC

I may be oversimplifying this but I think all Texas needs is for lsu to upset OU and we are in, as long as the expected win occurs (OSU over Michigan). Texas will jump Miami, Utah, and Vanderbilt after beating a@m and that will make Texas one of five sec teams in (Georgia, bama, A&M, ole Miss)- Texas vs. Texas A&M - 6:30pm on ABC

I just donāt see how that 49 year old man is going to play OL for Texas.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
Everyone sees that. Iām talking about things like playing Missouri without their QB, the fact that ND is over-rated, etc.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
Sanity has been restored in the universe. Sark in the second half was way better than Elko. While Iām still frustrated with Sark for not getting the full value out of his talent this year, I thought I was taking crazy pills seeing Elko in the first half look better than Sark. Elko is a decent DC, but he just canāt be as good as A&Māa record this year. They had a sneaky easy schedule.- Texas vs. Texas A&M - 6:30pm on ABC

Nope. The Texas WR talent is wayyy better, but being completely wasted. People think itās the WR but itās the terrible OL and bad route trees by Sark.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
Heās just a terrible OC. Heās totally wasting a very very good QB, just like he wasted Ewers. And to the question of talent, those saying Texas doesnāt have better talent arenāt very involved with the recruiting board. A&M does NOT have better talent.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
Sark getting outcoached in the first half. He has better talent, home field advantage, and isnāt doing well. I never thought Elko would be a better coach than Sark.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.
I think you are getting wrapped around the axle on some word definitions. If you actually do an ai prompt for addiction, addictions are described diseases. But, your hangup in this conversation is way less offensive than how others have characterized being an alcoholic.- Gone posters
I am intrigued to figure out who you are. I know your style I just canāt place it.- This is who Steve Sarkisian is.

I had that video in the 70ās. It was my bible for learning how to swing a golf club. I never had the money to have enough lessons to learn the golf swing properly so that was the best I could afford. Interestingly, that video was missing some critical bits of information about the swing that I never learned over the next 50 years. Finally 10 months ago I embarked on the journey to truly learn the right golf swing. Iām still not there, but Iām getting closer. That video started it all. - Lane Kiffin to LSU?
