The thing I know about Kiffin is that I have witnessed him turn multiple offenses around from a Chinese fire drill, like ours has been for7+ years, to a team that organized, looks like it has a plan and knows how to implement it. There are too many variables to rely only on stats. when you beat a team that is borderline .500 they fall below the .500 mark and vice versa. Was the .500 stat talked about in the tweet from before they played or at the end of the year? 0-5... other than 3 losses to bama, who were the other 2 they played that were above .500 and would ole miss typically have beaten them anyway? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank god TPB and other posters here were more intelligent than me!!!! The hard truth that people need to realize is the realistic options for Auburn is either Lane or Freeze. I do think we took a shot at Dabo. I don't think Deion or Grimes were ever real candidates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people on here are emphatically on saying Auburn is a better job, better team, better facilities and on and on over Ole Miss. Then you have the same people say, but LK has never beaten anyone and winning 10 games at Ole Miss isn’t a hard thing to do. Well, which one is it? If LK is the next coach at Auburn, no one knows how it’s going to turn out. He could flame out or he could turn Auburn into a top contender in the SEC year in and year out. But if anyone doesn’t think that he can’t coach an offense, doesn’t know football. OM has loved Lane Kiffin and now they are butt hurt Kiffin to AU makes bammers nervous. These are 2 reasons that suggest LK to AU is a good thing for us. Also, the “Kiffin jumps ship every other year” noise should be taken in its proper context. Good coaches move around to further their career and get to where they want to go until they get there. People don’t stay as an OC, or HC at FAU or OM if they’re successful. It’s just the reality of the profession. If he leaves AU it will be to the NFL, and that means he was very successful. I can live with that scenario, no problem!

I think It's impressive cut come on You know how you can hear it takes more than recruiting? Well this to sort of in a way. It going to take more than getting the wins when us,LSU and Texas am are trash right now LSU was trash. I don't like the fake accent dude at all, but he's had that team improve game by game. If A&M keeps buying the best players, eventually they'll turn it around no matter who coaches them lmao Edited November 23, 2022 by Mims44 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the dudes heart, but I dunno how well he'd do in a decent offense. And not one based on utilizing his speed to escape multiple unblocked defenders every play.

roe4christ 979 Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 Until we know for sure.....meaning signed, sealed, and delivered. I think you have to have a plan B just in case. I am sure they do. I am hoping for Kiffin at this point, but if it falls through, I am wanting Deion #2 and Freeze #3. I think it has to be one of those three for sure. Again, I am hoping we wrap this up on Friday with Lane but if not, the other two are the only one's I would think would happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just haven't ever been too high on him. This off season will tell it all though. He will at least get to where he's decent or they will phase him out. When he's in the flow of the game and is decisive at times it seems as if something may be there but just too inconsistent imo What do you think and see?

If we come away with Deion instead, I would be fine. If we end up with Freeze, honestly....I would be somewhat upset but would roll with it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’s our guy we just have to hope we get more of big season Lane and less of average season Lane. We shall see (most likely) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
