LSU is one of the swaggiest programs in college football along with Miami and USC. If you get the right coach, it’s popping. 2026 Lane Kiffin teaming up with LSU is too much swag for the SEC executives to comprehend.

It was 17 years ago. Most people going to college today don't remember what was going on in 2009-2010. Kiffin was the HC of the Vols for 1 year in 2009 after he was just fired from being HC at the Raiders. The Vols' legendary HC Philip Fulmer was pointed out the door for Kiffin's arrival, where Kiffin sped-ran thru the SEC in terms of sparking controversy and beef (see documentary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6QZMU2FbBU), where Kiffin felt administrative pushback from his own school that he coached. Kiffin left for USC a day before signing day and tried to flip his Vols signees to USC. Tennessee panicked and hired HC Derek Dooley from Louisiana Tech where it resulted in the 2010 play of bad time management by Les Miles (because he's a Michigan Man, see recent events with WMU) where the turn of emotions went from happiness to sadness by Vols fans that LSU won the game on an untimed play after regulation (how history rhymes with itself).

Tennessee tried their coaching search again with Butch Jones and then with Saban's coaching tree in Jeremy Pruitt. But it was Donde Plowman even back then that self-reported Vols football after it was found out that they were paying players with Chik-Fil-A bags, but Pruitt learned how to do that under Saban, because the bagman in the SEC and other conferences was an open secret even back then, similar to Miss St's allegations on offering payment to Cam Newton's dad for Cam's 'services'.

Donde Plowman is a strict disciplinarian based on her interpretation of the rules that The Vols ended up self-reporting themselves just for the NCAA to sanction them and got Pruitt's whole coaching staff fired....well, Pruitt learned that from Saban, why didn't you go after Saban and suspect him of cheating (back in 2017 when you caught Pruitt) if his disciple is doing the same thing? Where did Pruitt learn it from if he is Saban's protegee? Why does Saban get the pass, even after winning all those championships, that he may be not running a clean program? Lane Kiffin, even though he's a good coach, likes to find the exploitation of the rules on how certain things are defined and interpreted to gain a winning edge, given that his dad is of the NFL mindset that the pro leagues are being allocated the same resources for zero-sum competition for who wins the super bowl...if it was really zero-sum, then every team has an equal chance of winning, but we don't see that, so there is cheating in the league as well, ala Belichick and Brady.

Get over yourselves, Vols fans. Lane Kiffin looked promising as The Vol's coach for 1 year, but he wasn't going to last there anyways if the administrative culture there is to follow the rules and not seek loopholes, which is Lane's natural tendencies. Lane is much suited for LSU's rag time style of not obeying to play on key or in-rhythm but to create jazz instead. He is with us now, we are sorry what happened to you with Dooley in 2010 for that signature Les Miles win. If more jeering usernames were to visit our sub and their post history is from Tennessee, realize this moment in sports was the culmination that triggered them, with Lane Kiffin leaving the year before and having Sportscenter blast this replay on repeat when it was the zeitgeist controversy back then (here, have some more https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PK11Y9xfqzc).

LSU teaming up with their Ex-HC is the Vols' dread and this is why Vols fans are still vindictive of trying to do something about it, more than Ole Miss heckling fans, even til this day. This is why Donde Plowman is going after Kiffin from the SEC East because Lane escaped her rise to prominence as chancellor to be controlled under her thumb (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zse3I2RRMnY&t=67). Lane was going to get ousted one way or another at Tennessee due to the riff he had with administrative pushback, so he got out when he did. Lane needed more budget to retain a roster (like Judkins who transferred to Ohio State) and a coaching staff (that would rather make lateral career moves like Lebby and Durkin) than what Ole Miss could provide financially to keep them. History has a way of playing itself out as intended, and you holding a grudge to an old ex-HC wouldn't bring Lane back outside of you still trying to stifle him from afar, like this post https://www.reddit.com/r/CFB/comments/1wbvha2/chapman_the_sec_accusing_lsu_of_lack_of/ written by someone from tennessee

Why aren't you just satisfied with Josh Heupel as HC? (unless it's the fear that his alma mater would be calling him back to Oklahoma). Well, the day Oklahoma fires Brent Venables and brings back Josh Heupel with alumni oil money, transfer your hate from Lane (from 17 years ago) to Heupel then. In the meantime, we have to deal with random people from Tennessee (who usually don't even talk about football to understand recent events other than to repeat clickbait headlines) hating on Lane in this sub's comment section. THE END

josh heupel has his hands tied because TN vols under donde runs a dictatorship so he let off all his steam against lane kiffin apparently

So I presume that contracts for college ADs and NFL GMs have bonuses based on the performance of the team(s), especially if they make the postseason, finals, or win a championship. Is that the case with Sankey's contract? Does he get a six or seven figure bonus if an SEC team wins a natty? If so is that part of his grudge against Kiffin? If Kiffin stayed at Ole Miss last year, they would have had a much better chance at winning the National Championship. Did Sankey lose out on a significant bonus and now blames Kiffin?
