Coaching Hot Seat and Searches

I'm a fan of the guy but he's got to have some kind of 'tism going on.  Maybe a couple of them.

[Barton Fink]

Shit, I'm desperate. Appreciate his time and wish him luck, but I'm letting him coach this team through the playoffs.

One, if he wins a title its great for the program. If he loses, or the interim coach loses, it looks the same. It would also infuriate LSU.

Ole Miss fans are scrambling to acquire a surface to air missile on the black market at this point.

If that is true then they should fire him for cause and move on.  Fuck him.

With early signing period beginning next week, I think this Kiffin mess makes Ole Miss a less attractive job.  You roster will be decimated and the turmoil may make it harder for you to replace it.

I wouldn't be surprised if the SEC doesn't step in and have a word on this.  You can't have one man essentially in charge of two programs at the same time.

Mars says this will lead to permanent contract changes going forward to prevent this nonsense.

I'd let him coach if he wants to...he's your best shot at finishing the season strong and you are still free to go out and hire whoever wants the job. It'll probably attract some good choices. Ole Miss has shown they will get their wallet out...and it sits in a hot bed of talent. 

The LSU job is no doubt better but it's also a situation that's not going to put up with bullshit losses like he's had in the past. Same goes for Auburn...anyone that takes that job is going to be held to a high standard. They could go 0-12 and the next season demand pissing of excellence. 

It flies all over me the teams that have had "horrible seasons" like OU that's like 10-2...man we sure are a long ways away from disappointment.

Still coming off an 11+ win season with plenty of NIL. It's arguably the 3rd best job alongside AU (hard to believe). If Golesh picked us over OM (if open), I'd question his decision making before he ever put on a hat.

He has college football by the balls. It's amazing.

No coach who has the stroke Kiffin has now would sign such an agreement. 

I agree with TWB that the Birmingham crime syndicate may step in here. 


Those of you who think OM should let Kiffin coach them in the playoffs while working for LSU have no idea of the hatred OM people have for LSU.  They see themselves Egg Bowl as a fun rivalry with a lesser school.  Most OM fans would be only mildly offended if Iran dropped a nuke over Baton Rouge. 

[Barton Fink]

Yeah but OM fans are delusional idiots. Gotta account for that.

[Feral]

In addition to Arkansas taking a mulligan on football as a whole, this is precisely why I have really started to hate college football and have gravitated more to the NFL the last few years.

There's zero governance over player and coach contracts. It's absolute lawlessness and chaos.

For all its faults in terms of administration, the NFL at least has the concept of enforceable contracts, compensation and tampering rules, and a collective agreements.

Brian Schottenheimer can't simply go to Jerry Jones and say "I exceeded expectations this year so give me more money or I'm going to the Falcons." Pickens can't opt out of the last few games to rest up for his next contract. A coach or coordinator can't dynamite a playoff run because of the coaching circuit. 

[DirkPiggler]

Yeah but OM fans are delusional idiots. Gotta account for that.

It's very similar to our "rivalry" with Texas. 

[TC]

There's no way that if I'm OM or even LSU I want to let him stay and finish at OM. There's just too much risk for something to go wrong for me.

What a thin skinned little bitch

Well, I fully expect one helluva SEC Shorts this week. Bar is gonna be high.

[aaron]

Well, since my team sucks, I'm taking great delight in all this mess.

[TC]

They're gonna lock the doors and tell Lane to GTFO
