Is it bad that I hope Kiffin fails massively at LSU?

Nope.

He may do very well there.  But there are some parallels to Brian Kelly, and Brian had a much better track record when he went there.

It will be very interesting.  Lane obviously some traits that may keep holding him back.

Penn State reportedly showing interest in Tennessee's Josh Heupel.

At this point, who haven't they shown interest in?

"Mr Carwash"  that dude will have a hard time recruiting imo

Statement from Ole Miss athletic director. 

"Coach Kiffin and I met yesterday, and he informed us that he is accepting the head coaching position at another school. For our program to begin preparing for its future – both the short and long term, he will be stepping away from the team immediately."

He essentially says: Don't let the door hit your a$$ on the way out.  ... This sorta cracks me up, considering ESPN and Lane collaborated on a documentary this year in which the main theme was how Lane had finally found what he wanted in Oxford. Money can't buy happiness -- unless you're offered $12M a year, I suppose.

If we can’t win would love to see Ole Miss win it all this year. Just a giant FU

Sparty makes it official ... 

MSU football coaches during Tom Izzo's 30-year tenure 

Nick Saban
Bobby Williams
John L. Smith
Mark Dantonio 
Mel Tucker 
Jonathan Smith 

Dantonio ate up a big chunk of that, though, with 12 seasons.

Unfortunately we aren’t that lucky.

Pat Fitzgerald to Michigan State is kinda spooky

[Pagoda 6,675]

Haha.

 

Also, LSU plays at Ole Miss next year…

Among the snarky sh-t Lane Kiffin pulls, he releases a statement saying he was denied the opportunity to coach Ole Miss any longer -- despite the players asking the AD to let him take them to the CFP.

He knows damn good and well there's no AD in the country who'd let him stay -- especially when he's going to a conference rival just 300 miles or so away -- yet he tries to portray himself as a martyr because he's being told to get the hell out of Oxford. 

As you can see, the fans appreciate him ...

Should be fun

I wonder if any of the Ole Miss players will skip the playoffs and enter the portal

He and Mel Tucker can buy an island and live the good life

Only if Smith is generous. Mel ‘rubbin one out on zoom call with the sexual harassment educator’ mutha Tucker was fired for cause. Documented text message and zoom screen recorded ‘cause’. My guess is they gave him $1M to sign an NDA and go away quietly.

Still, dipping solidly into those RocketMortgage earnings. Smith seemed like a decent enough guy, and a solid coach at Oregon State - where it’s not easy to win. He just inherited the mess that Tucker left.

Haha that's good stuff.  Employees who quit always creates a mess when they've been entrenched for a while.  I've definitely had to walk people out and ship things to their house later.  It's never fun but usually funny lol.  This is a tad over the top, definitely played for the camera.
