They are the ones telling him he has to leave. I’m sure he would gladly coach them in the playoffs if they weren’t insisting on pitching a fit because he took a better job.
What a mistake that would be for OM but I’m all for it!

I can’t understand how they can make him leave without firing him and giving him his buyout. They are under contract and if he just keeps coaching what are they going to do?

Until he quits he is doing what he is under contract to do. Just because he won’t sign their new deal? Who cares. He’s working under the one he currently has.

Just seems like a bunch of brats stomping because they aren’t getting their way.

Really need to know by January 2nd before the portal opens and all the current players leave.

But before that, Florida has to announce in time for the portal to open, which will be before the Ole Miss playoff game. Wild but true.

He might be staying on at OM thinking that he has a shot at playing for the Natl Championship. Depends on his goals. They will be in the playoffs won't they?

Yes the playoff warm up opening acts play in games in the first 2 rounds. Championship is decided with in the final 2 games with the 3 Tier 1 teams: Ohio State, Texas A&M, Georgia. Vegas odds jump way up after those 3 real contenders for a reason.

But due to the portal being in January, you have to leave before the playoffs start.

Damn, they are confident they have him on TD:


Back to top
Knox to Uhigh is real with him enrolling after Thanksgiving break as an NIL offer was presented to the family that wasn't matched from a competing high school in the Baton Rouge area.

Kiffin, Layla, Landry, Knox, and Sexton are currently at LSU looking over the contract which should be finalized in the next 48 hours. With agreement in place he wouldn't coach Ole Miss in the Egg Bowl or the playoff run.

Keeping Baker and defensive staff is top priority from LSU in the agreement with a yearly salary of 13.5 million.

Will update once I get more information. Unless it falls apart last minute Lane is our next head coach.

*I will put a ban bet on it again*

2:50 p.m. UPDATE

LSU is allowing Kiffin to make all staff changes with no promises for defensive staff. Sexton used Florida to get the extra pay bump from LSU as Lane was going to take the LSU deal all along. Ole Miss and LSU were the only real options but within the last 24 hours things really turned in Oxford with the demands to sign his extension or walk. Contract will be signed today with Lane not leaving BR until it's final.
That same guy just posted another update and said the deal is done and it will leak. He said Kiffin will hold a press conference tomorrow to announce it. Would be crazy if true

Never thought I would see the day that a college coach would hire Saban as an analyst, unbelievable.

OM didn’t want Kiffin anyway….. is that how it works?
Their fans have started saying they should’ve listened to TN, and not hired him. Of course him leaving now is not comparable to what happened at UT.

Right before the first ever playoff appearance is beyond belief

Coaches don’t hold press conferences when they leave a school. They usually just get on a plane and show up at their new school. You hold press conferences to say you’re staying.

I would ask you to stick to covid vaccines and masks, but you sucked at that too.

I really hope you are right on Kiffin. As for the other, you were and are clueless….and I really don’t care anymore.

I 100% believe he’s leaving OM this year but I find it real hard to believe that he’s not going to finish out the season for OM. They are a virtual lock for the playoffs and have as good of a shot as anyone at advancing.
We shall see. My guess is he announces he’s leaving then finishes the season working both jobs. But I wouldnt be too surprised by anything right now.

Ole Miss has somehow avoided a WAOM moment in the past couple of years, so it wouldn’t surprise me if they gave him an ultimatum right before their team has a legit shot at the playoffs. State winning the Egg and Kiffin leaving would make for a hilarious Monday morning at work.
