Imagine firing Brian Kelly and paying a $54,000,000 buyout, just to hire an even less accomplished coach and pay him $91,000,000, just to do what Brian Kelly would have done.

People talk about the A.I bubble but the Kiffin bubble is about to go pop

The students at USC putting Kiffin after all the Fire Lane sidewalk writings on campus years ago was fucking hysterical.

I said he was a bad hire and we were gonna end up paying for it. Everyone told me I was wrong but unfortunately I was correct.

I saw that Golding did what Kiffin couldn't and beat Georgia and immediately knew that he was not the reason Ole Miss was good

I got friends telling me Kiffin is an elite coach whenever I called him overrated. Been real quiet the last few weeks.

The only thing Lane is elite at is narcissism.

He should’ve stayed where he was, he had an elite team and less expectations

I was saying from the beginning that the move to LSU made no sense given that he had already demonstrated that he could put together a great team and make a good run in the playoffs at Ole Miss and clearly their expectations were far lower.

But he plays fast! And is in your face! And doesn’t give a fuck about anything except himself!….oh wait
