LSU is OK with Lane coaching in the playoffs.


Provided he signs with LSU by Sunday.

I haven't seen his contract but I'd imagine the season includes postseason.

It really doesn't matter though. The point is, if he officially signs with LSU, then he isn't Ole Miss's coach, and they'd never let him coach another game.

Kiffin may be a troll and bit of an attention whore, but anyone who watched that press conference today can tell you he isn’t enjoying this.

He’s reputable BUT even if they did, I’m sure pretty much everyone who knows something isn’t speaking

Just said on his pod that he doesn't think Lane is walking away if they win Saturday. He says there is about to be a showdown with him and OM. Neal doesn't think Ole Miss has the muscle or legal ability to suspend him.


I have been saying this for a week. Dont know if he will do that or not though

I don't think LSU or Florida would make Lane eat that personally and they aren't going to let $4 mil hold up a $90mil contract

Then there wouldn’t be the smoke about Saturday this coming to a head. OM firing LK and not having an offset and owing $36M is the primary reason for the delay.

No they arent. They are ok with egg bowl

Lane needs to be down here working recruits/portal by next week


I know for a fact LSU is open to it. Ole Miss would have to win 2 playoff games for them to even be playing into the January Portal Window.

You asked if there was something OM could do. That's what they can do.
But, the word is, if he follows their requests and timeleine, they wont force him to pay.
And that's why he agreed to stay past the Egg Bowl, and a press conference to follow

Here's how it would work for Lane to coach the playoffs for Ole Miss, and also be LSU's next coach.

The only way that's possible is if Ole Miss is okay with him being contractually bound to LSU well before signing Day, and LSU is okay with him splitting duties and coaching former team and recruiting and signing players for us. And think about the fact that Ole Miss would also have to be okay with him actively recruiting for LSU while on campus at Ole Miss Ole Miss would have a harder time with this than LSU to be honest

Well, that's a relief because OM plays State Friday.

If they owe him money still, they'll deduct.

But, he probably wants the rightoff, lol

Barkley said he used to love fines because he wrote off 100%...or something like that
