Kiffin has always reminded me of another guy that desperate people would call upon to fix a short term problem, and who will have a measure of immediate success, but who “doesn’t play well with others” and will ultimately cause more chaos than he is worth. 

And now, in Baton Rouge . . .

 It’s on Ole Miss if they didn’t have a contingency plan for this. I mean if you propose to a girl and she says “that sounds great but I still wanna look around and take my time  see who else is out there for me” you are an idiot if you don’t have a backup plan. The problem is everyone they might want is still in the CFP mix. And a rush hire ain’t smart. But they got in bed with a characterless mercenary. He may have coaching chops but he’s a fucking asshole. And you get what you pay for.
 

He’s either gonna wind up either winning an MNC at LSU in two years or never winning the big one and winding up face down in a swamp in 3 years. 🍿

Are you revealing information about your methods that should probably be kept a secret?

Swamp is a weird name for an LSU coed but I guess it *is* Louisiana

It’s a dumb move. You have just as good of a chance to win at Ole Miss and the pressure is much lower. Baron Rogue isn’t exactly an awesome place to live either.

I can't disagree but my view is a variation on yours. I see him more like the philanering husband/wife who parties a bit too much and doesn't get along well with the in-laws. Yet, despite knowing all that some future husband/wife marries them with the "they've changed" mantra. Or... maybe I'm just projecting based on Texas' HC. I dunno.

It’s a shit-hole.  Absolute shit-hole.

I’d live in Mandeville or Hammond & commute in.

I actually fully agree withe RBG and Immamacs projection potential of Lane at Texas and think it's true for LSU. He could be getting the Tarmac treatment in year 2 or 3, or could go on to win 7 national championships. It's a high risk high reward choice and I really can't think of a better suited school than LSU save perhaps the hot mess that is Auburn.

We’re the same board that shit ourselves when Urban Meyer was a serious prospect several years ago. We only dislike assholes when they’re not on our side.

We keep hearing how complete morons like Miles and Orgeron won national titles at LSU so it'll be easy to keep pulling top recruits and win for someone like Kiffin.  

Of course, none of these arguments ever acknowledge all of this was done pre-NIL.

When everyone can pay players the red stick isn’t such a great destination imo.

True. But urban has one thing Sark and Kiffin do NOT have as a HC: MNCs. Period. I am willing to overlook fuckery with a contingency plan in their contracts if they have actually won a MNC as a HC. I am not when they have not. That simple to me. Neither Kiffin nor Sark have an MNC as a HC and until they do they are just a good to great hire. And the off the field shit better not mess up the on field shit and cause losses.
