Sometimes the answer is right in front of your face and you choose not to see it

So why even do this?

You’re saying Layla visited BR for the hell of it?

If this was the case they would've stayed quiet. Seeing as they haven't and are pushing him out the door, this take is full of shite


Correct, and shows Sallee’s IQ is certainly below 95.

As dumb as it sounds, Kiffin might be the only guy that would do that.

Making your family visit schools and cities to trick opposing teams is a bit psychotic

Ya, I don't think Lane needed more leverage from Ole Miss.

Yeah, pissing off two blue bloods to stick with a stepping stone - all while causing an insane amount of distraction and drama during a potential playoff berth, is nonsensical.
Bad take.

To try and act like you’re calling Ole Miss’s bluff knowing that you’re not going to leave hoping to get a little more money out of their offer.

Even if you don’t get what you want, you still have delayed and screwed around with the enemy’s search and possibly cost them some money.

None of it makes total logical sense I agree but it’s something I could see Kiffin doing

"Hey honey, go to Florida and Baton Rouge so we can pump up Ole Miss" what a smooth brained take

Not all visits are the same. There's a difference between a real scouting visit and doing due diligence before making a big decision. Lane could have little to no intention on leaving Oxford and sent his ex to check out UF and LSU just in case since they made him an offer.

I mean, it is the most logical path.

Here is the school and brand I have spent last 6 years building. We are soon CFP bound and he runs the show.

Florida and LSU do not make sense at this point. Not saying Ole Miss is better than those two, it just does not make logical sense for him to leave right now.

It tarnishes the image he has built.

It's like this board completely forgot who Lane Kiffin was and how much he trolls

That is 100% what's happening. LSU fans and Florida fans will look like retards with eggs on their face when Kiffin signs his extension with Ole Miss.

Two fanbases of once football powerhouses on their hands and knees begging for the coach of little Ole Miss

Kiffin is a troll, but flirting with LSU and UF only gives the impression he’s not happy in Oxford to recruits.

You do realize that Kiffin can just as easily start telling recruits "I've seen LSU and Florida first hand, and here at Ole Miss we have ...."
He could very easily use this trip against LSU and Florida. I'm certain he already does so when recruiting against Alabama.

You need to make it believable.

And if troll was the plan it’s already working. Franklin is off the board. Several schools not in the running for Lane have a short list and have already been talking to candidates. The longer this goes on the more coaches will be off the board for LSU/UF. If you can drag this to 11/28 then they’re screwed

But if I were an ole miss fan, if he stays, I'd feel like the good wife who stuck around after the alcoholic husband had an affair and went to jail for 30 days after beating the side piece half to death and then whipped my arse for asking about the charges.

But with ole miss being a dog shite program, maybe it's a "battered wife" syndrome type thing and they take him back in after their own domestic violence ER visit and act like nothing happened?

It's all so strange. I hate ole miss, but damn, coming back after this is just strange. Definitely WAOM, regardless.

Do you seriously believe that neither LSU nor Florida have been in discussions regarding other candidates at this time? They don't speak with only one candidate at a time.
