He won’t coach in the playoffs unless he signs with Ole Piss. Only he and Sexton think he can both leave and get to continue coaching.

Like most Ole Miss folks, I was pretty surprised when Keith announced he'd be coaching the Egg Bowl.

Now I'm kinda curious

I think he will coach the Egg Bowl, but it wouldn’t surprise me if he doesn’t. A lot can happen between now and Friday.

There is 0 shred of proof Kiffin is coming here so the post if fing dumb. Some many assumptions for the biggest troll that’s happening.

If Lane stays, then this would have been the worst handled end to the season I could possibly imagine. He isn't hyping Ole Miss up to the playoff committee in pressers, talking about how cool of a story Chambliss is, working to get Lacy some Heisman hype, etc. He's just going through the motions. He had a great stage after the Florida game when we secured our 10th win to talk about the program and he instead mentioned a weaker crowd against an FCS school again.

If he coaches in the playoffs, he’s staying.

I think despite possibly good intentions by the parties, it will just be too clunky for things to remain in limbo for that long.

This is a great point and the most obvious tell in where he’s going. A shameless self promoter suddenly is silent.

I say if he signs a contract to be LSU’s coach then let him coach the playoffs if Ole Miss gets in. That way, if the unthinkable happens and Ole Miss lucks into a championship, it will be LSU’s coach that got them there and we can claim the national championship as well. Add another flag, baws!

This is why I don’t understand why Ole Miss wants him. It’s like he’s checked out already. Maybe Ole Miss doesn’t need Lane.

OM would not allow him anywhere around the team. No way a Tiger coach will be allowed to coach the tea, Plus there won't be a playoff game if Lane announces Sat or Sunday. All teams that are selected will have a HC. They want competitive games.

I don't they can do that anymore with the AD and Chancellor statements.

Something HAS to happen after the Egg Bowl. Either that he is leaving or that he signed his extension.

A statement will have to be made by OM or CLK.

Yes, a college coach can sign a contract to work for a new university while still coaching at their current one, but they must adhere to their existing contract's terms, including any notice periods, and may have to pay a "buyout". A new contract is often signed after a coach is hired away, with the new school paying the previous school a buyout fee

I really don't care whether Kiffin stays of goes but I will lose respect for him if he abandons his team in the middle of a playoff run.

What kind of person/coach would NOT want to coach his team through its first playoff and possible championship?
