Lane vs Mario

What's the guy supposed to do? Hot name with two huge coaching opportunities (big $) being floated. He's kept quiet, kept winning. He doesn't control the media or the talk. Coming out and publicly turning down interest would just weaken his current bargaining chip at his own job. Fanbases are ridiculous.

Gonna have to disagree here. There is lots he can do, like deny the rumors and sign the extension that is likely sitting on his desk.

All the podcasts of reporters that know lane (thamel, wetzel) say that lane is going to make this about lane as long as he can, that he loves the attention and drama surrounding him.

Or he can, you know, sign an extension like Cig, Lashlee and the others did.

Now if he is taking another job, then yeah, I guess there is nothing he can do. You don’t really say that now I guess. But most coaches just do the obligatory “I am happy in Starkville, why would I want to leave?” statement that isn’t an explicit “no,” but lane didn’t do that. Which is why he is kind of an *******.

Kiffin is at ole Miss in the SEC. Mario has a much easier path to success. Yes. It’s crazy to want Mario over Kiffin today. Lane is a far better coach

Last season he got beat by Kentucky and Florida, who combined for 14 losses.

This season he’s beaten one ranked team and won by a TD or less against Arkansas, Washington State, LSU and Kentucky.

In their loss against Georgia, the Bulldogs scored every time they possessed the ball other than halftime, dropping 43 on them.

He’s a good coach, but give me a break.

Give me a break. Mario’s not really a good coach.

I would be surprised to see him actually leave before his team’s run ends. He has personal goals for success I’d guess and all waiting gets him is more money.

Our guy Mario hasn’t always left places on the best terms. Schools get butt hurt.

For sure, Ole Miss is going to ***** if he leaves no matter what. I'm cool with that. But that's all this entire discussion is for me. The timing. I would be surprised to see him actually leave before the season, too. That's why I posted what I did about him being a piece of **** because I read multiple things last night saying he could leave before the playoffs. Doesn't mean it's true, obviously. But all I've been saying this whole time is IF he does that, that's a REALLY bad look and I'd personally lose a lot of respect for him, not that he gives a ****. I just think that's very bad business. You stay until your run is over. If he's so great, getting to Gainesville or Baton Rouge in January versus December isn't going to make or break your tenure.

I don’t think he’ll leave if he’s in the playoffs. I think he will stay through it as he has goals too but we will see.

Yet their results the last two seasons are very similar.

Oh good lord, again, Lane is in the SEC at Ole Miss with a way harder path than Mario at Miami the past to seasons in the pathetic ACC. As soon as I get a good usable image for you, as your avatar isn’t ideal for this, you are going in the Passover dinner here amongst the St. CoRchibal purists.

Ya Kiffin is a weird case study.

I'd rather have him than CMC (and I'm slightly positive on CMC, think he's a pretty safe option at UM), I think he is a much better gameday coach than CMC…And his offense basically NEVER doesn't show up, he's an genius with the playcalling/offensive prep. But someone has to explain 3 losses to me with that ringer team last year, they were pretty loaded.

What's funny is like CMC (in a totally different stylistic) he tends to lose the heartbreakers, was really unlucky last year, but should have never lost all 3, ya gotta win one of them!

I used to hate him, now I'm a kiffin fan lol.

Yeah the schedule is a real murderers row. When you’re looking for new avatars try and find one of you slurping the SEC harder than the members of the selection committee.
