Surely it's not wise for the AD and co to tell the boosters that they're tampering with Lane.

People with employment contracts sign future deals every day.......they risk getting fired, perhaps for cause. But, if the new deal is good, they accept that risk. This is not a job with collectively bargained restrictions on employment [as is the NFL, NBA, MLB].

Sure. But supposedly the boosters have put all the money together and talked to Lane’s people, because Lane is not talking anything official or directly until Ole Miss’s season is done. Semantics, but important nonetheless because I think the clarification is important.

And I’m not saying that your partner is wrong. I’ve heard the same numbers from my friends, and those same numbers are also all over the Gator boards too. But also this is all one-sided for now because UF has given their offer, and Lane hasn’t given any feedback to them. So they’re getting all excited because they think the deal is done because in their minds no one would turn them down because UF is the pinnacle of CFB jobs, but they’ve got competition. Lane taking any one of his options wouldn’t surprise me.

All I can tell you is time kills all deals.

More importantly, the same **** happened last year (wealthy Gator fans were asked if they would contribute to firing Slingblade Billy) and then nothing happened.
 
Lmao. WGAF what has Lane won of significance…anywhere? If he’s hired at UF I’m sure they’ll have the typical recruiting bump his first full class and once people figure out he’s Mullen 2.0 things so back to how they are now.
 
If Lane has his choice between college and NFL I would take the NFL… college jobs these days are way more demanding and more difficult IMO.

Almost 24/6 365… NIL.. high school and portal recruiting. Kissing boosters asses… almost no offseason.

If he gets offers from Giants or even Dolphins I would take those. Pro coaches are making just as much as college

I read something last month about his wife really liking Mississippi and being happy there, and how that could keep him at Ole Miss. Who knows if it’s true, but I do think people are underestimating how much his wife is going to factor into this decision.

I also think people underestimate how much of a rebuild UF is going to be.

I read that too.He's got a couple daughters in school at Ole Miss and he’s getting his marriage back after a lot of struggles and his wife loves the place.Plus he’s got the program on cruise control now it seems.
I mean if you’re comfortable at a place making 10-12 million a year is it really worth uprooting your family from a place they like for a little more money to go take over a program that is trash and will expect a complete turnaround in 1-2 yr.?
I think he stays at Ole Miss but that’s just me and I guess we will see.

NFL
LSU
UF

Is the order. Lane at LSU with what they do at WR would be fun to watch.

Agreed. That Giants job has to be tempting even outside of Dart being there. You have Nabers, some pieces on defense, it's not a total disaster from a talent standpoint. Giants have to want to have him of course and if NFL doesn't work out, he can come to college and have his choice of jobs (just like Saban to a lesser extent)

Bruh I don’t care if Lane is *** I would sacrifice my giants so he doesn’t go to Florida. I need my pro team to help gator tears advance. Hope the giants hire Lane

The Giants’s problem isn’t the coach; it’s the Maras. Y’all are ****ed for a good long time.

Sorry, bro. My husband and one of our closest family friends are both Giants fans so I hear it all the time. John Mara is an alumnus of my law school and spoke at our graduation and he’s a real piece of work. I truly think all y’all can hope for is that his kin have some more sense than he does, because he micromanages even more than Shalala did when she was here. It’s bad.

I hear this a bunch but I’m like wasn’t he here when we won titles?

I do know he wants to win, but does he do the right thing? Not anytime recently he hasn’t, it doesn’t bother me a bunch cause it’s not the canes. And I have seen superbowl in high definition, the canes on the other hand better win one in this age.

Giants should have never gotten rid of Jerry Reese. Young to Accorsi to Reese was elite. Gettleman was an idiot, and Joe Schoen the jury is still out on

Don't disagree.

I look forward to the day when the Giants are run by Kate & Rooney Mara...

I think he's a really good coach and would turn UiF into something respectable - but I think he's peaked at Ole Miss. He'll never be more than a coach that flirts with the Playoffs.
