It's going to be funny watching Ole Miss have to pony up a shit ton of money again to try and keep a guy that just got throttled. Just like last season. But they have to do it. How high would A&M go to outbid OM? Would they even have to? Kiffin knows he can win it all at A&M, but not Ole Miss. Those weirdos don't exactly fit Kiffin's desire to seem "cool" though. Kiffin might demand they end the weird male cheerleader cringe pep rally's.
Now they know how we felt every year with MullenQuote:

At a school on our level, good coaches will have options. Peace of mind in the offseason means you have someone no one wantsQuote:

Kiffin isn't a fit at A&M. I don't see it
He is if he likes male cheerleaders and cults….I don’t think he’s into that thoughQuote:

I think both UF & TAM are nightmare jobs. You're right about Kiffin & OM too. And they'll pay for players up there. Kiffin just has to find and keep a good DC for the most part.Quote:

If you think about it, when you hit a ceiling somewhere it becomes a weird deal. Kinda like us with Dan. Instead of feeling great about our new elevated floor and ceiling when he was here, we wanted more and started getting tired of just going to Gator Bowls, ha.
Kiffin has to know that with $9 mil a year at Ole Miss, expectations will only get higher every year, and he is probably maxing out that ceiling, or very close to it. So when do you make the move? I know he likes the area and his kids like Oxford, yada yada....but an $80 million dollar contract doesn't happen very often, so you'd have to think if A&M calls he will be very interested.
I'm not saying he leaves this year, I just think I'd be more worried about A&M than any previous teams reaching out if I was Ole Miss.
Well all of the hot strip clubs are in Houston.Quote:

Why wouldn't he go to TAM. Doesn't have to face Bama or UGA every year. He will have TAM facilities and funds and with his knowledge of using the NIL and portal he will be dangerous.
How do you know this? Asking for a friend**Quote:

If you are wondering, that was given to A&M during halftime of our game. So yeah, that is next level to handover the buyout check at halftime of Jimbo's last game.
Kiffin isn?t going anywhere. He will absolutely FLEECE Ole Miss wagging the Tamu and Florida jobs in front of them. And he will stay?because he knows he can win 7-9 games a season at Ole Miss and keep his job forever.
I can’t help but think Arch (Archie) gets disgruntled with Texas, and om faithful win another big lawsuit, parlay winnings getting Arch to ox, lock in Lane, and throw the rest in the NIL to surround him with talent. Only thing Lane seems to like are qb's that can take off and run (Corral, Dart) and I’m sure the Manning camp wants Arch to be in the Eli school (throw the ball oob and never run). It may not happen but I wouldn’t be surprised.
Coaches are strange. We all thought that about Mullen. He would have a statue on campus by now had he stayed and kept winning 7-8 games per year.Quote:

Kiffin will take the Florida job in a heartbeat. He knows Florida. He loved living in Florida. He could be the one to turn Florida back into a contender.Quote:

Best case you get out of Oxford to a place you can actually win big.....worst case you get paid another few million a year to stay in place, and then do it again next year. Their fans are too stupid to realize this.
I wouldn't touch Florida if I were Kiffin the expectations are unrealistic. However, A&M wants 10 win seasons and not losing to State & Ole Miss. All are possible there. On the flip side he has a gravy job at Ole Miss. This year will tell if Kiffin is settling down as a coach or chasing fame and challenges. At this point money isn't an issue for him.
This is a nice haul but reminds me of Saudi Arabian soccer. They have more money than anybody but they have no championship on the horizon. Team USA will win a WC before the KSA. Brazil and Argentina win with tiny budgets, clubs teetering on bankruptcy.Quote:

I don?t see money as an issue. When your stadium is 450 mil+ and they ask for donations and within weeks or a month they have 750 mil raised, money is not an issue!! They are not rich, they are wealthy out there!Quote:

Maybe just fleece OM one more year and then see if Napier gets canned. Although, going to aTm will certainly guarantee to swell your bank account with guaranteed contracts and big buyout money.Quote:
