Lane signs extension. Stays at TSUN

[Tater]

Until he signs the dotted line... I don't believe him. He still hasn't signed. It's the same extension that's been sitting on his desk for a month.

And even if he signs. Auburn would have no problem paying more of a buyout if they wanted him. Nothing burger until Auburn has announced their next coach. Keep the turmoil on for Oxfart

[PikeDawg15]

We have a war on our hands .

Damn I wish he left but we know now he is not unbeatable

We have to give Arnette a blank check

And sexton going to score twice. Once for Lane big pay raise and one for Freeze new contract. I kind of wonder was Cohen part of the Ole Miss 17ing. He loses the last four games and got a 9 million contract. There's not another Matt Corral sitting on the bench waiting for a chance.

Ole miss gets Bama and Ga next season. They are also getting Tulane in New Orleans. Probably an improved GA Tech.

Georgia tech at home also that should be improved

He does not want to stay and/or is not staying. That is as clear as the purest gold. If either was untrue...WHY. NOT. SIGN?

It really is that simple. He is probably gone....anywhere in P5 but Ole Miss.

Nah man, he?s signed the dotted line.

But it?s obvious he isn?t happy.

Auburn didn?t give him what he wanted and he decided to stay at ole miss because auburn was ready to move on with a more affordable coach

They will be better than this year with $10,000,000 in NIL to spend, if that figure is true. That is WAAAAAYYY more concerning than a petulant child like Vain Kiffin returning as their head coach.

That number is a lie. Certainly not cash in hand.

Also, the contract for Lane doesn't appear to be 9 million. Low is now saying "in the range" of 9 million.

He didn't stay in Oxford for less money than he would have gotten from Auburn. His own retweets make clear that he didn't get what he wanted. They literally say that.

Auburn moved on after this week's events.

I do wish he would have left, I?m not sure who is a solid name.

If AU is having to hire Freezus, who would the bears have to hire?

[BeardoMSU]

Unless I've missed it, he hasn't actually signed the extension...they've just told the various sports writers "he intends to".

It's most likely a done deal, but still weird that he hasn't signed yet. There should be an official OM Athletics announcement...that would've been the correct way to do it, rather than leaking to media.

So OM and MSU finish 8-4 with MSU paying about 60% of what Kiffen will be making? I like Kiffen, but is that a big win for OM? There are a lot of coaches that could have gone 8-4 with OM?s schedule this year.

[Maverick91]

If lain is at Pissville U next year you will actually see if he is skilled at coaching up players.

[LC Dawg]

I don't want to see Kiffin at Ole Miss with Matt Corral at quarterback. Without Corral we'll see. So far he's 8-4 overall and 0-1 in Egg Bowls post Corral. And his year 4 records at all his coaching stops isn't that impressive.
He should, however, get some Elitedawgs posters to write his resume and he'll get any job he wants.

I hate pumping LK but he did lose ALOT last year and pulled some good talent. It was a great GREAT win Thursday but what happens without Arnett? I?ve just got to see more offensive production (points) from CML in SEC games. I really like CML but against good SEC defensive teams the DOGS faltered. This next year should say alot about CML and LK.I do think a Dak passing or fitz running qb would be really productive..... JMHO..... Go ?DOGS"

they beat Tulsa by 8 .. Tulsa lost their staring qb early in the game
Vandy was leading at half time
Uk straight up blew the game
Auburn made it close
LSU wasn’t even close after halftime
AM had a shot
They played and always seem to play Bama really well
Arky was a blood bath
And we shut their ass down on defense

We go 8-4 , beat them and basically our entire fan base would have no issue with Leach stepping. Away
They go 8-4 and are willing to pay that guy , who is a really bad guy a POS almost 10 million

I'll never believe that. I think they've wanted freeze since before they fired their AD and coach.

Freeze wasn't even the backup until his success this season. And the previous AD balked at Freeze being a possibility.

Our defense definitely won that game. They shut our offense down also... we've now gone 5 straight sec games with less than 400 total yards with a veteran offensive team. This is why I'm disappointed with leach (offense), but we are 8-4, so that can't be discounted

[DownwardDawg]

If that's true, then Kiffin will be announced as Auburn's coach any minute now. If he's not, then he was never their number 1 target. Ole Miss ain't beating out auburn for a coach.

You are confusing being the #1 target (and he was their #1 target) and reaching an agreement that both parties are comfortable with. That's 2 totally different things.

I think the Jimbo factor is coming into play with contract terms. Made schools really look closer at slam dunk home run hires IF they don't pan out.

Exactly. And I love Will, but leach is doing it without a playmaker at QB. Going 8-4 with a guy who is not mobile and has D2 arm strength is impressive (he is normally very accurate though).

Kiffin was No.1 .......The Auburn people and the national media said he was. Kiffin 1A and Freeze 1B and now both are out, Auburn didn't think Kiffin was worth as much as OM thought he was. If Auburn wanted Kiffin bad enough they could outbid OM big time but they didn't. Probably the main reason Freeze was that high on the list was because of him beating Bama. Seems to make a big difference over there.

[DownwardDawg]

One would think there would be some official notice from the school to put the matter to rest. That hasn't happened. All the stories say "planning" or "expecting" or "intending."

I certainly don't believe national media. They are totally clueless and are used as pawns. Only Auburn people I would believe are yellawood dude and folks like that. That's why I still believe they wanted Freeze as number 1. There looks to still be a bunch of baggage with him though.

[LC Dawg]

It makes a big difference everywhere. Compare Kiffin's postgame press conference after Bama to his other 3 losses. He was pissed after that game and his normal subdued self after the other 3. He knew that was his money game. He knew big time programs would overlook his immature shortcomings and go all in on him if he could beat Bama at Ole Miss.
If Freeze wasn't a sexual deviant there is no telling how much money he'd be making now.

One thing we will know if Freeze is hired , they don't care that they have a split fan base. Whether that was leaked by the Athletic Department that they were talking to Freeze to gauge the fan base perspective, or if it got leaked some other way, some people were upset over it and the Athletic Department supposedly has received a bunch of emails saying they won't go to the games, support the program. etc. if Freeze is hired. If Freeze was originally No. 1, he would have been hired, probably after the Iron Bowl, because Freeze wants this job and Auburn could pay him a lot less money than Kiffin wanted. Sokoloff had said either Kiffin or Freeze should be named as the HC after the Iron Bowl , but several things happened where that didn't become a reality.

It's not just auburn. Lane is going to let the cycle play out and see what else opens up. For example, if Lanning takes auburn then Oregon opens up. If Kelly leaves ucla, ucla opens up.
