100% made up. Said it last night.

This is OM trying to smear Kiffin to make him look as bad as possible on his way out the door.

I'm sure Kiffin will clear it all up once he's in BR - along with his staff.

Pretty sure he won't be taking any shite after the way all of this has gone down in the media.

Also, McMurphy and BitchBoy should never be allowed in the building moving forward.

Each side will use the media to make the other look worse now

It's not made up. Kiffin told his staff if they aren't on a plane to BR tomorrow (being yesterday), they don't have jobs there.

Likely what happened is Lane said if I go to LSU now I’ll have to start recruiting and putting together a staff. Some of those players and people would be from Ole Miss, as is normal in coaching change situations. However, if I stay through playoffs, those people and players would likely stay through the playoffs too.

The entire national media is pissed that Kiffin is coming to LSU. It's BK all over again.

Maybe. Could be Ole Miss is trying to gauge who’s going to end up leaving with him and won’t let them coach the post season either.


I think it’s this and he’s spinning it as Lane’s doing…

If they choose to leave, that’s their choice. They’re standing by their coach. What do you want them to do?

That would be an incredibly stupid move by Ole Miss


They’re in the middle of a temper tantrum. It wouldn’t be surprising.

Right. We already have an offensive staff.

This!

He is saying why can’t I coach the playoffs when I “insert name here” is coming with me and you’re going to let him coach.

Now Ole Miss is giving the entire staff an ultimatum. That’s why the meeting was postponed.

Unprecedented times.

This. We have an OC and o-line coach already. Kiffin need not worry.

LK has always pushed the "rules", see hurt flopping rule, and said so much as you don't like it, change it. This is no different, with the guidance of Jimmy Sexton and with the apparent blessing of LSU, he is pushing the terms of his contract to the N'th degree, squeezing out all he can and forcing Ole Mrs. to either fire him, he gets a payoff, or let him coach the playoffs. Ole Piss just happens to be the lackey in all of this.

It doesn't make sense

LK: I’m leaving for LSU, but I want to stay and coach the team through the playoffs with my staff.

OM: No, leave now.

LK: Ok, but I’m taking my offensive staff now to start the rebuilding process at LSU.

OM: No, they’re staying so we can make a deep playoff run.

It makes a ton of sense if you look at it from the perspective of the media doing anything they can to get clicks.
