Maybe, but if he really doesn’t give a shit, he was giving a face-acting masterclass on the sideline all night. The man was not exactly exuding confidence out there.
Nah, Leavitt is ass any time he can't run. And any good team will spy him all game like Ole Miss did. I have never seen a QB this sloppy with his mechanics. Leavitt threw 3 INTs against Louisiana Tech. I am ready to see Landen Clark.
Honestly, if you think about it, he’s probably already a school legend despite having only coached for six games simply due to the context of what those six games were
Pete Goldings career is better now that Kiffin left. Dude took over a SEC school with a playoff roster. And Kiffin found Chambliss from a D2 school and made him a NFL prospect
He also wanted to bring them both over to LSU, but they stayed loyal to their school. And while he does deserve some credit for their initial success, he shouldn't get credit for what they do without him.
Plus, if Kiffin was coaching the Sugar Bowl, I firmly believe Ole Miss would've lost to Georgia.
Youre point is valid but Kiffin lost all good will he created for himself when he let his exit become a fiasco. And to a very disliked rival no less. Many will never forgive him and will never speak positively about him or anything he may have done to help the program over the last six years. Fair or not humans are emotional.
Dont know why you got downvoted to death but you right. Golden is def not mad at him. Chambliss may feel bad about his coach quitting on his team though? Hard to say.
It's not what he did at the end, it's how he went about it. It's a shitty move, made shittier by trying to snake players from OM to LSU on his way out during the playoff run.
Had he coached out the playoffs and said he was leaving, the vitriol wouldn't be anywhere near what it is.
every coach that went to a new place took way more players than he did.
almost no one serious in the P4 hires coaches after the playoffs. the NCAA calendar is to blame. continuing to parrot that nonsense is a non ball knowing indicator
I was more addressing your point that The Ole Miss players shouldn't shit-talk Lane after the win as he made the team what they are currently. Which, yes, you can make that argument - but it ignores the context of how he left, all the bullshit he talked about staying and how it was home before leaving them high and dry, all that stuff.
Yes, Kiffin made Ole Miss better. I'm not arguing that. But he did fuck them over. That's not for debate, IMO. I think they have reason to talk trash after that win.

Ole Miss players seemed to be talking mad trash to Kiffin post-game.
