Sounds like Kiffin to AU was in the bag and ultimately his children changed his decision. I respect that. Good luck Kiff.

Yeah, and I've got a bridge in Brooklyn for sale.

All of the "Kiffin to AU" smoke AND the "he stayed put for his kids" has the PR fingerprints of Jimmy Sexton.

Nothing about Lane Kiffin has ever not involved smoke and mirrors.

I’m not going to say it wasn’t a stunt to get every dime out of OM he could but with Knox on the sidelines he very well could have asked him his opinion and gave it a lot of weight.

There's a possibility Kiffin has finally "dug in" at Ole Miss, I guess, but I haven't seen a trustworthy move from the guy before.

If he did listen to his kid, it's a Grinch moment in my eyes and his heart grew 3 sizes.

I was about to say. When did Lane ever care about his kids or his wife? When he was chasing co-eds while married? Lane is about Lane. Period. And Jimmy Sexton is about leverage. Stayed put for his kids? What a crock.

With all the jack the Boyz on the Plains seem to have, these power brokers can only come up with Hugh Freeze???
I dont get it. Appears the power brokers running the program may get in the way?

We’ll probably never know, and my opinion isn’t worth anymore than the next guy…but I think Kiffin wanted it. He was clearly touchy about the subject, as evidenced by his altercation with a no name reporter. He held off on his contract, and he left the door open with his team to leave. If I’m not mistaken, he and Freeze both share Jimmy Sexton, and I think Sexton kept him in the loop that they preferred Freeze. Tin foil hat stuff on my part, but I think Kiffin is off to Auburn if it was up to him. He seemed literally miserable all week and after the egg bowl.

We will know-eventually. You really think Lane will keep his mouth shut after he leaves Ole Miss-whenever that may be.

There is nothing overrated about Dabo. He didn’t luck into 2 titles and 4 title game appearances…. He’s annoying as a speaker but he’s easily the second best coach in the country behind Saban

He did to an extent by having a gravy train to the playoffs for the first 6 years. All he had to do was get his guys up for 2-3 games a year and they dominated the ACC so badly his starters were rested and not beat up. He touted a couple of years ago how they had something like 85 guys get a full games worth of snaps over the course of the regular season. That would NEVER happen in the SEC, there aren’t enough blowouts for that to happen. That’s a terrible indictment on the ACC.

Once again, there is nothing overrated about Dabo.... You don't have postseason resumĂŞ by pure luck.....

An example of being overrated at a big program is Ryan Day.....

Again there is. He plays a **** schedule that GUARANTEES he gets into the playoffs every year. Once you get there anything can happen and he has a roster on par with the Bama’s and OSU’s of the world so they should compete. His coaching is not so good that he would have that same resume in the SEC where there are 3-4 games that can derail your season every year. He has the luxury of lining up a Ferrari against Pinto’s 11 out of 12 weeks. There are 51, 4-5* players going to ACC schools in 2023; 18 of them are going to Clemson. By comparison the SEC has 128. No team can amass 1/3 of the talent in their conference like they can.

Overrated coaches don't have 4 Natty game appearances and 2 Natty's against the greatest coach of all time.....

You can choose to think that is a resumĂŞ of an overrated coach, but you will be in the minority.....

And you can choose to think that the path to get there doesn’t directly impact what he’s been able to do. Dabo is a benefactor of talent and his schedule. His rise coincided with Spurrier’s retirement, FSU’s downturn, our downturn etc.

Dabo doesn't get to pick 2/3's of his schedule. That is set in stone via the conference.... To say he is riding a gravy train from something he doesn't control is clownish... To say he's overrated is just foolishness.....

The schedule meaning his conference is trash. You’re being dense and arguing semantics. I blatantly pointed out how he benefits from his schedule (conference for you) numerous times.

You’re calling Dabo overrated because of something he can’t control. All while he’s gone to playoffs the second most times and won 2 out of 4 title game appearances. You’re free to call that record overrated but you are not in the majority.

Lol Auburn just Schiano’d Hugh Freeze. Now he has to return to Liberty after basically quitting on them. I could see him taking USF or something now to avoid the friction. Btw did y’all know Salters is QBing @ Liberty?

Freeze sucks as a human being and is basically bargain bin Malzahn, but Auburn is heading straight down that dark path headed straight towards hiring Tuberville as their AD and Sal Sunseri as their HC.
