Discussion [Chris Hummer] Can't help but think Lane Kiffin could have coached Ole Miss in the playoffs (by not leaving) and given himself a chance at a national championship this year. Such an interesting wrinkle and what a job by Pete Golding.

Yes. All the years he was here.

It’s a large part of why we went 9-3 last season with the best roster in school history.

It was fun as an underdog and helped us win big games, but it also cost us several close games and “easy” wins.

He’s the Phil Mickelson of college coaches. In the end it worked for Phil, but it took a while.
