To this point we’ve had:

 

Virginia Tech - James Franklin

 

Oklahoma State - Eric Morris

 

Now appears Arkansas is about to hire Alex Golesh.

 

Actually like each of those hires so far quite a bit. All should have some success in those spots.

 

Obviously the Kiffin soap opera is going to have a domino effect of some kind, we’ll find out where that saga ends soon, I presume.

Hope for some clarification by saturday or sunday from lane.  will the supposed conversation with Saban alter Lanes thought process?  This is just more soap opera fuel to add to the fire in oxford. Will he turn away from the opportunity to coach and host in the playoffs?  only 1 person knows

Still sounds like Kiffin just hasn’t made his mind up.  
 

I expect OM to win easily and help make his decision easy - stay at OM and make a run.  
 However if they’re in a close game or somehow State upsets them (just don’t see either), he could throw the team under the bus and leave.  

I would say it seems crazy for a coach let one game decide it for him either way…. But to be honest with Kiffin that would be pretty on brand.

rumor now is that Sumrall is not on board to move to Oxford once Lane vacates the premises.

My prediction, if Kiffin leaves, is that Alex Golesh is the next coach at OM. And him waiting on OM may be why the deal between him and Arkansas is not finalized yet.

 

I’m a fan of Golesh, FWIW.

This Egg Bowl had a lot going on.  From the bye week for both leading up to it, to the locker room break in, to the fight and Selmon having words with Kiffin, to Kiffin searching out a “reporter” after it was over.  
 

Congrats on an unreal season for OM.  It was a shame there was so much drama at the end.

Nothing officially official yet….

 

But all indications today lead you to believe that Kiffin is on the next plane to Red Stick. And also that Sumrall to Florida seems to be incoming.

 

We shall see what that trickle down means. Feels like Golesh will either be in Oxford, Auburn, or Fayetteville next year. That may be the next domino to fall, and would potentially impact the other two searches.

Sumrall held off on any decision until tomorrow and allegedly really wants the Ole Miss job if open... assuming Lane is headed to Baton Rouge, Sumrall is my first guess as the new Ole Miss coach.

I hope you are correct but I think Sumrall has passed on the rebs and is a gator.

No offense but you also said Kiffin was meeting with KC 12 hours ago when he wasn’t and the jet would be here at 5pm. All your takes have basically been something you’d read on X hoping something would stick and say I told you so.

That would qualify pancho as a professional sports reporter then.

folks on the ground said an untruth but it all came to fruition and he seems to have given an ultimatum to the entire offensive staff.    Have the planes landed yet or are they hovering til the team meeting has concluded?

i have just been told that the Sumrall reps are pulling back on the Gators as he is still interested in ole miss.  may take a few days to unpack all this in chronological order
