Quote from: DirkPiggler on Nov 28, 2025, 03:44 PMHe won't win a national championship at Ole Miss.  That's the point.   They are maxed out financially with the best coach they have ever had and still don't have a roster that can beat the top teams over a three week period.  This isn't basketball where one or two guys can help you make a Cinderella run to a title.   They still will probably build him a statue and a new stadium if he stays but it won't be for winning a title.


You can be literally retarded and win one at LSU.  It's been done twice in the last twenty years by guys who need assistance in figuring out how to work a light switch. 



I don't know. They seem to have the old Auburn horseshoe, and don't have to worry about a conference championship game.

Their defense is playing better and the offense is balanced.

They won't win a title.  Write in down in permanent marker. 

This is as close as they will ever get.

Kiffen has built a brand at OM that appeals to kids. If they can keep competing in NIL, they will keep getting talent.

Yep. I'd wager this is the top for almost all of the schools retaining coaches. Seems to always work that way. This may bankrupt Ole Miss as soon as he stubs his toe slightly. Quite a bit of luck involved this year with the Ferris State QB being the absolute goods.

They will if he stays, but won't stack enough to win it all.  And I doubt they can sustain the NIL spending over time...a big reason he will leave.  Lane knows the financial limitations.  Paying him more is only going to pull more away from player payroll.  They are already running a deficit in athletics. 


This is a hill I'm willing to die on.

I hope you're right.

I fear you've overlooked the biggest factor...

God hates us.

Georgia is getting ready to go in dry.

Second half snoozefest and about a 31-6 win coming up.

Quote from: DirkPiggler on Nov 28, 2025, 02:43 PMDepends on whether he values quality of life over the ability to win a title. 

True.  But Ole Miss is making the 12 team playoff this year.  Has won 10 games in multiple years under Kiffen.  I think he is showing Ole Miss can win a title just as much as LSU.

Catching up.  Should have read through first.  

Valid points.

Hasz finished the season with 2 catches for 25 yards.

For $7 mil I'll put a webcam in front of my shitter so I can answer fan questions while I drop the Longhorns off in College Station.

Once authored a post that critics claimed, "Was notaslibro level."

If I was him I would stay.  I like Oxford and could live with being the best ever at a slightly lesser school versus having to constantly live up to unreasonable expectations in a shit hole.

Judas Kutas had a decent pulling block today.  Granted he got smoked by the guy he was blocking but at least got in the way.

I agree on all points.  We go to Oxford at least 6 times a year for travel baseball.  It is a nice town and you can get a statue built for winning 10 games a year there, or go to LSU and get kicked out the door for winning 8 in year 3.

Has anyone heard anything about Kiffin confronting a reporter after the game today?

Some rumors, but no one seems to have any video proof or anything.

My thoughts too.  I've lived in Oxford and spent a summer in Baton Rouge.  I'd take Oxford 100 out of 100 times.
