I only spent 3 years in Catholic high school so I guess the part you ditch your playoff team to get your bag was taught Freshman year.
he also appears to be recruiting his QB to come with him here?
I guess they’re banking on the Bama job opening up in a few and Lane pulling another falling upward move.
My goodness LSU what the hell are you thinking? No mitigation?!?
When you tarmac this guy in 3 years you are eff'd.
I think it was more the case of a conference rival deciding to poach an on-the-rise program's success (as well as Florida boosters who decided they should get in on the mix but they seemed to have cooled off quickly) and LSU boosters flexing their weight over a poorer competitor school. The governor of Louisiana personally inserted himself into the coaching search even. I can't imagine the 3 current B1G openings Penn State, UCLA or Mich State would have even considered him.I don't really follow college football, but two things seem to be true, and they are a bit at odds with each other.
1) Everybody really, really, really, REALLY hates Lane Kiffin. Like, he may be the single most-despised person in sports. And it sounds like he's earned it.
2) Everybody is willing to drop their pants to hire Lane Kiffin.
Like, is this dude really John Wooden crossed with Walter Alston with the DNA of several of the Avengers sprinkled in? I don't get it.
Don’t really care that he left, it’s when/how he left. NCAA needs to change their calendars so coaching changes only happen after the end of the season.Kiffin decision sucks for sure but there is zero loyalty in college football amongst coaches and players. That is the state of the game now. It’s the Wild, Wild West. Can’t wait til LSU goes to Ole Miss next year.
Probably not knocking up a staff member, which apparently now confirmed as the "with cause" portion of this termination.
The timing on these firings is always hilarious. Michigan is in the middle of sanctions due to the choices of their last coach. What the hell did they think was going to happen?
