Coaching carousel 2025-26

The new barn coach was born in the Soviet Union.

I just did a little research and it's actually Kiffin who owes OM $4M for terminating his contract early.

lsu will be paying that

 

[DanoCanuck]

All that swaying indicates he's pretty uncomfortable. I dont know if its nerves or embarrassment or what but I'm guessing thats an interview he didnt want to give.

 

[carder24]

What about against Auburn?

I'd allow them beat the barn and vols, totally ok with that

Runaway lane never coming back

 

[Rocky Mtn Bob]

I made it through 55 seconds of that tripe ... and stopped watching. I really cannot care for a guy who operated the way Kiffin did.

Sec Coaching hires ….. how would you rate them?

LSU- B+
Auburn- C+
Florida- D
Arkansas- F
Ole Miss - F-

I really hate this for the OM players. A lot of work goes into college sports and to have this happen at this point in the season is awful.

Not a Scarbinsky fan but this does give Barn people (particularly my son) some concern. His first words were “Hope we didn’t back up the Brinks truck to get him”. $7.5 million base that could bring $9 million or more per year based on incentives.

It was announced down here a couple of days ago that LSU would pay Kelly the full 54M buyout.

If Sexton is Kelly's and Kiffin's agent, you bet they will. They'd have to.

I think Arkansas would have done better if they brought Lou Holtz back.

Holy Mackeral, Batman! Pete Golding just fell into the Ol' Miss HC Job and not as Interim? What bizzaro world is this??

Not only that but this has to be a gut punch to the OM community as a whole, the best season in modern OM history and the coach leaves, what a way to realize no matter how good you are, you'll still never be good enough in some eyes.

Quite simply, he should have stayed. A good man, an honorable man, stays in this situation.

This is not the college football world we all grew up in. Ole Miss has deep pockets. Deep enough to get what is needed to compete for titles (has that not been proven this season???) What is Kiffin chasing at this point except to glorify himself?

He will regret this day.

Honestly, all Kiffin has to do to keep his job at LSU is show up at alumni events, drop a few choice words about Bama, and boom instant hero worship. They’d eat it up like it’s tailgate gumbo.

You must have missed the Coach Oregeron era. No one could be more LSU, more Cajun, more bayou, than Ed Oregeron. And he trash talked Alabama.

He was fired anyway.

but he played Alabama close twice. so the logic is he can beat Alabama with better players

 

[Tide-one-on]

Someone needs to tell me how this was not tampering with another SEC school, by another SEC school during the season. Sanky needs to put a end to this crap! Stick em for about 5 million or so.. Is there such a thing? Awful what Lane and LSU did to the Rebels! I hope he loses a bunch next year!
