I personally think Lane is a genius. Not as in some Einstein mind, but as in his creativity running a program. I know this will really really **** some people off, but his team reminds me a bit of our old teams, or Pete Carrols USC teams. Flashy, exciting, and embracing the bad boy image.
I was listening to a Joel Klatt podcast (I know he can be a hater but I like the guy). He said it perfectly. He coached under Saban and Pete. I think he is trying to create a team with a little combination of the 2. Toughness, discipline, hard work, like Saban. Gameday theatrics, flash, and swagger like Pete. Celebrities at games, movie scenes every saturday. Hes making LSU talked about and cool again to the nation.
He will be gone to the NFL or to Bama or to wherever in 5 years, I expect him to win a ring. I love Mario and would have it no other way, but the Lane train in Miami would have been a fun time lmao
