At the end of the day, if Lane bolts for Auburn, then that's going to undo all of the rehabbing of his image that has been done. His public comments, everything he's said on Twitter, to the players, etc..., will just reinforce the idea that it's all about him. 

I'm just tired of the drama. It really has taken away from the joy, as a fan, of the season.

If Lane Kiffin were to stay at Ole Miss, Ole Miss should still possibly pursue hiring Luke Fickell.  It would be great to see Lane not accept the job at Auburn, Ole Miss hire Fickell, and then fire Lane.  There is no doubt that if Kiffin stays, he will be job hunting again next year.  Kiffin has severely damaged his reputation with the Ole Miss administration, many players, and the fan base.

This would not be smart. We would be on the hook for the rest of his contract payments. Lane may be different and stubborn about keeping his mouth shut but if he does choose to stay then he is choosing to stay and choosing Ole Miss over Auburn.

This whole scenario has been completely bizarre to say the least.  Lane isn’t looking great right now but who knows what is actually going on behind the scenes.  But we all should want Kiffin to stay.  He has us on the cusp of being a yearly playoff contender.  That is without being even close to matching the talent of LSU, Bama, etc YET.  He has improved the roster significantly and will continue to do so.  If he leaves, man that sucks.  But if we can keep him, let’s just ride the wave of success.  We can’t even think about replacing him if he doesn’t leave for Auburn.  That would be almost as bad as hiring Matt Luke.
