I heard the interview, and his explanation after. He didn't have any malicious intent. And he had to have confidence. He admitted they didn't back it up. Most teams can't vs. Alabama - that's hardly an indictment. Lane still has a sense of humor about it which is nice.

Agree...the comment wasnt ugly...it was "we are going make this a game..."
Ooops,....
So much made of this ...and about nothing really

Yep, I took it with a grain of salt. So what, he actually thought he had a chance to become a profit.

I don't think he was trying to be rude, I think it was a premeditated attempt at trying to be funny and getting attention and thinking he was going to parlay that soundbite into a win with non-stop SC highlights all weekend (but it backfired in Wyle E Coyote fashion). But, getting caught up in emotions, pushing the envelope, and testing boundaries is who he is. The calm, cool, collected, and respectful Lane is not his natural disposition. Yes, he's also an elite offensive mind, and when focused, can be deadly with his play sheet. But at his core, he's immature. Always has been, always will be at this point. I think it's ok to be thankful for what he did for UA's and Saban's offensive evolution, while at the same time acknowledging the excess baggage that comes with him. And despite popular belief by some, he has no (private) love for Saban, at all (which is fine).

He is baggage for sure. His dream job, look at what he did, and he left UT to get it. Ole Miss is a perfect fit for him as long as he stays out of trouble. Ole Miss will keep him forever and if he wins enough games each year they will have a shrine to the guy. Kiffin and Orgeron are two peas in a pod. Mumble O though is not long for LSU. Kiffin could hire Orgeron and have the perfect reunion twice fold for O and Ole miss, Ha

Difference is orgeron is a scumbag piece of garbage!!!! Kiffin can be a pompous (but entertaining) ass.
Kiffin also sees his short comings and actually learns from his surroundings..
I wouldn’t piss on “O” if he was on fire..

Yeah. He left TN for USCw ...who was on or going on program dealing with sanctions....
Hard to compete...

And O was an assistant at TN with LK...could reunite if O gets the door

 

[mando]

could reunite if when O gets the door

Fixed it for you. No way he isn't fired at some point.

I saw it as CLK believing in his team to win the game. Heck, I think almost all of us thought the game would be a shootout. Bama dominated the first half and the comment about getting your popcorn backfired. IMO, it was not done to be mean, to downgrade Alabama or taking a jab at CNS. It was said in the heat of the moment and this time it did not work out for him. He is still entertaining, still a good offensive coach and still needs to have better control of the situation. BTW, I had lasagna with my game Saturday instead of popcorn and it was just as enjoyable.

He need to do whatever it takes to make his team believe they can win.

Exactly what I think as well.

That's really great.

Lanes almost likable.
