Which players is he taking that won't be in the playoff?

The qb and maybe the rb?

You really think those players will skip the playoff?

Probably Chambliss at a minimum but likely a RB or two and some receivers. Decommits from Ole Miss are starting so he'll poach those recruits too.

I dunno. If they(or kiffin) want to be at lsu for the spring, then they must.

If they are okay showing up in the summer, then no

It's a valid thought.

Rumors had been that he'd have a guaranteed 25MM NIL purse every year

So, as head coach he is in a position to have players do what he wants

Why is that?

The portal closes on January 16. Even later it Ole Miss makes the final.

There is no reason they can't stay at Ole Miss for the playoffs then transfer.

Not enrolled for spring semester, no spring ball. No practices, nada.

They'll do what the spreadsheet says to do. I doubt there is a field called "head coach still there?"

PRINCIPLES
The committee will select the teams using a process that distinguishes among otherwise comparable teams by considering:

• Strength of schedule,
• Head-to-head competition,
• Comparative outcomes of common opponents (without incenting margin of victory), and,
• Other relevant factors such as unavailability of key players and coaches that may have affected a team's performance during the season or likely will affect its postseason performance.

You think getting enrolled will be a problem at LSU?
Sayin enrolled at Alabama , then transferred to Ohio State on January 21, 2024 and played in their spring game.

The registrar will find a way to get players enrolled.

---

Different schools have different start dates for spring semester, though.

What happens if Ole Miss players opt out because Daddy Kiffin tells them, on the downlow, that they will need to if they are going to transfer to LSU with him?

What an epic cluster this could become. Kiffin didn't just hurt Ole Miss, he pillaged and razed Oxford

---

If a head coach treated me like that, giving me that kind of ultimatum I'd say f him he doesnt actually care about me so I'll stay here or transfer somewhere else

They should NOT have left FSU out, period. It is a TEAM sport.

This will have ZERO affect on Ole Miss, they aren't going to make that mistake again.

Yep. They find a way to get them into universities all across the country despite so many not being very bright.

No, the CFP Committee will not leave Ole Miss out of the playoffs.

Ohio State started school on January 8. Two weeks before Sayin transferred.


But you think the registrar office in Baton Rouge is going to be the one to strictly enforce some "you have to be here on the first day of school" rule?

Any player on Ole Miss can be in the playoffs and still transfer to LSU once they are done if they so choose.

They won't leave them out of the playoffs but they may drop them a few spots since they dont have their "leader".

We should for sure be ahead of Ole miss and oregon then.

But, that whole paragraph is bull***** They know it. We know it.

Yes

They need to. Send a message to all coaches your players will pay the price of you trying to get a head start at your new program.

The ol miss practice squad being coached by the teams special teams coach has no place in the playoffs

LOL. Why would the outgoing coach care?

Perhaps you can name the players from Ole Miss that are not playing in the playoff.

The committee left themselves an out with considering

I'm sure Lane will have forged applications for his targets ready to go to hand to the registrar. That's just who he is.

Do not think so. Wouldnt be fair to players. FSU was a player issue, not a coach issue.

Can you not be enrolled at two schools at once? A normal person can, but a student athlete?

Kiffin is decimating the staff on the offensive side already, We still haven't seen which players will follow him. He took players with him when left bolted from Tennessee and recruits to, plus staff.

With a skeleton coaching staff and who knows which players remaining? Committee cannot ignore that it is not the same team that won 11 games during the regular season.

And here is the cautionary tale, BECAUSE IF THEY DO JUST IGNORE IT, IT WILL KEEP HAPPENING!

Coach can be paid to leave AND BURN DOWN A COMPETITORS'S PROGRAM IN THE PROCESS!

STILL think we will be considered the worst 1-loss team there is….
Ole Miss at 6 and we're at 7

Change my mind

Looks like you and others who predicted NO impact on Ole Miss ranking were correct.

Personally, I think that is complete BS!

You see

It matters if it helps certain teams. A&M is not one of those teams.

Must be a real punch in the gut to "vain Lane" to learn that others don't consider him an integral part of Ole Miss' success, like Florida State's QB was determined to be a couple of years ago.

Any Ole Miss players transfer yet?
