But he has changed since then. …again, you made good points that make me feel better about it if it were to happen. Impossible to lose?? It was impossible to win after the sanctions Pete left them with. Kiffen’s only mistake was taking the job right before the sanctions hit 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was a thought , but based on the tea leaves, he does not seem to be a serious candidate for Auburn. I personally think it is all in for Lane Kiffin. Probably seek out Matt Rhule and another big time coach. If none of that works grab Freeze. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we’ve offered LK already and we’re waiting on an answer. Plan B will kick in if the train stays in Oxford 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand Kiffin/Sanders being 1a and 1b But not ever having Sanders in a back up plan? That’s not good. I’m good with LK even though Sanders is my top pick. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like the state legislature attempted to put an amendment on the ballot in 2019 that would’ve eliminated the four year max, but wasn’t successful.

It was a mess and he left before he was fired or controversy impeded him if I remember correctly. Ummm, no. They still hate Lane in Knoxville because he left. He was a California kid that had coached for years at USC on Pete Carroll's staff. When USC came open, Lane dipped out and wouldn't take any questions. Administrators, boosters, BOT and fans were all pissed off because he left. It wasn't a mess when he was there. 2007 Tennessee won the SEC East. 2008 Fulmer goes 5-7 with a loss to Alabama and they freaked out and fired him. (Exactly like Auburn did Tubs and the same week if I recall) Lane took over and improved them to 7-6. He bolts to USC and Tennessee hired Dooley, then Butch Jones, then Pruitt and now Heupel. Lane had them headed in the right direction and also had a really good recruiting class thanks to Ed Orgeron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeamZero77 1,786 Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 Sunday on Texas A&M's message boards, they were sharing articles from their beat writers. They said if Jimbo gets bought out this year, that Texas A&M's short list is Kiffin, Freeze, Dan Lanning, Deion Sanders and Bill O'Brien. Ole Miss boards claim that if Auburn hires Kiffin, Ole Miss may go after Freeze to return, Dan Lanning, Deion or Bill O'Brien. See a pattern? Nobody knows and the same names get thrown around during every job opening. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
