    If Lane has been offered a extension

    Why not just sign it and put all the speculation to rest? If he is staying this cant be helping with recruiting or current players.
    Normally, when coach extensions are announced it is after they are already signed, not when they are offered. I understand OM putting the word out about the offer so the AD can say "hey, we tried to lock him in" in the event Lane is leaving.

    As I see it the only benefit to delay signing the extension, if he is staying, would be to garner some extra media attention at the presser when he makes the announcement to stay.

    Lane on TV: "I love it here."

    Camera gets closer on unsigned extension on his desk collecting dust.

    McCready said today that he's at 85/15% Lane going to Auburn. Hopefully his team plays like shit Thursday night.

    His weekly Monday presser did nothing to quell the hysteria and put his fanbase at ease. He also hasn't talked to his players about it, lol.

    He gone.

    Maybe he countered and is awaiting the new one? I don't believe that, I think he's gone too.

    We will see Lane call a very mediocre game Thursday night. Dart, Judkins and any other player going with him ain't gonna be put into a situation that ruins their playing time at Auburn.

    And the other coaches won't exactly have their minds on it either.

    The other possibility is that he hasn't been offered the AU job, and he hasn't signed the extension because he is waiting on an AU offer.

    We have a winner!

    Per Not A Fan, Lane officially interviewed via Zoom yesterday, knocked it outta the park. He believes AU will officially offer Lane today. We might get a Pete Thamel tweet late this afternoon or early tonight.

    Like I posted on another thread, Kiffin supposedly interviewed last week and was offered the job yesterday afternoon according to Chuck Rounsaville. Rumors were 6 year and $75 to 77 million deal but that is only rumors.
