I know a lot of people don't like Bo Bounds but I listen to him largely for his guests. If you will listen to the last 6 minutes of this podcast he sums up my feelings on those clowns in this situation. He has no connections here other than giving out picks on Bo's show (and other shows around the country). He has been running their AD in the ground for 2 weeks. This is not me pushing his product, but I will say his picks are above 50 % on the free winners he has put out. I have never heard of him until this year.
Lane screwed OM. Plain and Simple. He tried to make sure they couldn't hire a good coach by waiting as long as he did. He knew last week that he was taking the LSU job but he decided that he was going to play hardball with OM because he wanted to keep the camera on him. He didn't give a 17 about "finishing the job with his team" or some of that other BS he said. Lane cares about Lane and Lane only. Not OM, not LSU, not his family, not the players, not Juice, etc.
And also, OM was in a lose lose situation. If they suspended him, then he would've just filed an injunction and coached anyways. And also probably gotten buyout money. No coach wants to take a job that they are actively recruiting their new team against the old coach, who's still in the building. I have it on very good authority that had Lane stepped down on Friday night, Jon Sumrall is probably announced Sunday as OM's new HC instead of Florida. I also know Golesh waited until he couldn't anymore because he wanted that job.
Well I'll be. Zavion Hardy is in the transfer portal.
Yeah.. they probably seen how invested OM was with NIL. That's one if the biggest, if not the biggest, factor in coaches decisions.
Not saying AU and Florida aren't invested, but you can see the trouble inside those programs from the outside. Boosters meddle with everything. OM let Lane run the show. Thats very attractive to coaches.
I dont think Auburn TODAY is any better of a job than Mississippi. They fund football as good or better. This is the Money Era. Old times are now actually forgotten
Because coaches talk. They know that if you win at OM, the boosters stay the hell out of the way and just give. They know at Auburn and Florida you have to bend over backwards and invite boosters on your family beach trip to get 100K, whether you're 12-0 or 0-12
I think that was the plan from the beginning. I believe they did this whole Golding thing just to please the playoffs committee with stability.
The risk in that is who will be available? Maybe Golding fills in until someone becomes avaliable. Or would they consider Weis?
They're rolling with Pete. At least for 2026. I have that on 100% authority. Now, if they were completely blown out in the playoffs in Rd 1 maybe a change could happen. But barring something unforeseen happen, Pete is the HC. I tried to tell everyone from late September on that Pete had a lot of allies within their booster ranks and in the athletic dept and I thought there was a real world where he succeeded Kiffin.
Please let them keep him as Head Coach!!!!!
I was thinking the same thing as Trap. I'm betting this is a quick band-aid, then if they have a chance to get a good coach they'll jump on it. Hopefully Pete stays and they suck next year. Then the candidates will realize they're starting over again.
This is what winning does though. Ole Miss could have had any of those top candidates if Kiffin had not screwed them so bad. We need Lebby to win......badly.

This is stupid. Sumrall was never going to be the coach at Ole Miss when Auburn or Florida were options. Golesh would've never been the coach at Ole Miss if Auburn was an option. They probably had a shot at Golesh until Auburn called.
Ole Miss is nowhere near the job some of you think it is. That's why they are stuck with a guy who would not be a candidate for any other P4 job opening. Hell, he wouldn't have been a candidate at Tulane or Memphis.
The problem with Ole Miss is they are very vindictive and they'll run you down to the nth degree if you don't win enough. Kiffin is one example and yes he deserves everything he is getting. But they acted the same way towards Nutt and after he got fired.
You leave them and then they air out all of your dirty laundry. Including anything about your damn dog.
