He has been recruiting against those places already.

“Several prominent Ole Miss players posted Tuesday night on X, disputing Kiffin’s claim about them asking him to stay. Star linebacker Suntarine Perkins reposted Kiffin’s message and wrote, “That was not the message you said in the meeting room. Everybody that was in there can vouch on this.”

Perfectly describes Kiffin, and many others as well.

I’ll be sharing this. Thanks!

I think this is going to backfire bigly on LSU and Kiffin, you’re going to now have a lot of players who simply will not play for him.

Yes, not only is Kiffin abandoning his playoff team, but he’s been caught in several lies on his way out the door.

No one tried to run him off the road on his way to the Oxford airport.

The Ole Miss team did NOT want him to remain coach during the playoffs.

Kiffin had contact with Florida, Florida State, and LSU during the season, despite his denials.

Can potential LSU players of the future trust anything Lane Kiffin says?

No surprise from me. Thanks for the link.

I made a determination about Kiffin many years ago that he was a d-bag. Others should’ve paid attention. People like that don’t change their stripes. If they do, it’s for their own selfish benefit, and only for a time. In other words, manipulation.

It’s sad to see how often it works, and how hurt the people who are left behind holding the bag.

Terms of Hartline’s USF contract have not been released, but I am guessing $6 million a year with a $24 million buyout so even if he fails, he wins!

I know this is stating a 5 pm start but is that eastern time which is usually how they list things?

Does the Big 12 championship really start at 9 am?

This sounds like start times are listed for pacific time.

That is the PST. The game is at 8:00 pm EST, 7:00 pm CST, 6:00 pm MST and 5:00 pm PST.

The better game will be the blue field game on Friday on Fox, UNLV @ Boise State for the Mountain West championship. Same bat time differnt bat channel. 8:00 pm EST, 7:00 pm CST, 6:00 pm MST and 5:00 pm PST.

Go Blue

SOS is a bs indicator as well. It’s takes in biased ratings from ESecPN to create the SOS.

Keep in mind that the SOS rankings I linked to aren’t from ESPN. I didn’t want a “rankings” that might have a monetary bias toward hyping up the games they broadcast.

Hmmm...Indiana outscored the five common opponents (Illinois, Penn State, Purdue, UCLA, and Wisconsin) 233-50, while Ohio State outscored them 188-50. If this data is correct, it may signal good news ahead for the Hoosiers.

They haven’t played anyone. The UI schedule was light.

I know that, but they influence the rankings which are taken into consideration.

Indiana is a strong team on both sides. Would not be surprised if they won.

Go Ducks

For the Wisconsin and Purdue games at least, Ohio State was using their 2nd and 3rd string in the first quarter to give those players better playing time.

Oh, and UCLA, too. Trying to develop players for the long haul.

They are strong on both sides, and I wouldn’t be surprised either. It will be a great game.
