The Internet’s Takes On Lane Kiffin

Plus, Megan Thee Chef

…and designed a jacket, it would look like the mfpen x Schott CWU Bomber. Though I guess they don’t need to do that, because it already exists. The point is, it’s a good jacket. 

You’ve heard of CAA, Octagon, Wasserman. But have you heard of Comsport? Two best friends behind the French powerhouse agency are to thank for so much of France’s basketball boom, from Wemby’s monk-capades to the top picks hailing from L’Hexagone.  

Nike and designer Maxime Black collaborated on these Nike Tech tracksuits for Chelsea ahead of their London derby against Arsenal yesterday. Fans in the comments are begging to buy them, but I will do you one better: Who will send me one for free? 

Fan half-court shots have become layups, according to Tony Reali (a phenomenon for which he lovingly blames Stephen, Dame and Caitlin). It doesn’t matter if the prize is a car or a chicken sandwich; fans are hitting more half-court shots than ever. 

Is wiffle ball the new pickleball? Kevin Kostner and Gary V seem to think so. That’s why they're big investors in Big League Wiffle Ball. Just don’t put all your wiffle balls into one basket! Or do; I don’t care! They’re your balls! 

Forward this to a fan of the Tennessee Vols, the Oakland Raiders, the USC Trojans, the Alabama Crimson Tide, the Florida Atlantic Owls, the Ole Miss Rebels, or the LSU Tigers.

Last week, we talked about Lane Kiffin’s impending departure from one SEC team to another. Well, folks, the departure is no longer impending. It’s…unpending. It’s no longer pending. Basically, it happened, and it’s all become so messy, I don’t even know where to start. But since I have a professional duty to do so…

Lane was originally supposed to announce his departure from Ole Miss to LSU after the Egg Bowl on Friday. When that didn’t happen, everyone started to wonder what the eff was going on. Meanwhile, Kirk Herbstreit made a case for Kiffin to be able to keep both (LSU and Ole Miss) jobs until Ole Miss’s College Football Playoff run was over. And everyone was kinda like “?????” 

Ole Miss said something like: “Actually, I think we will pass on your suggestion to coach our team and our rival team, who recruit from the same regions, at the same time.” And Kiffin said something like: Fine, whichever staff members don’t come with me now, won’t be coming with me ever. 

We spent hours and hours wondering what would become of the Ole Miss, the staff, Kiffin, LSU…

A team meeting was set for 9 am…

…And then pushed to 1 pm. No one could even get a hold of Lane for a bit. 

But the search for a new coach began regardless.

Everyone became obsessed with this graphic. 

The rain in Spain falls mainly on the Plane by the time Lane gets to explain.

Lane ultimately didn’t attend the team meeting, but did say the team wanted him to keep coaching.

Some talking heads blame the CFB schedule for this fiasco. Others made jokes about it. The crazy part is, this isn’t his craziest exit.

Anyway, congrats to Pete Golding, who was on the staff as defensive coordinator, but was immediately promoted to full-time head ball coach. And congrats to these coaches who are headed to LSU with Lane. And congrats to all of us who forgot to have the Sunday Scaries because we were doing this instead. And here’s where the rest of the coaching carousel has shaken out, for those curious

From Thanksgiving dinner to Mavs basketball to a day on the water (or at least at the marina), Megan Thee Stallion and Klay did this weekend right.  

Megan’s dinner looked unreal. Hard to believe she made all of that herself, but I wholeheartedly believe she can do anything she puts her mind to. At my family’s Thanksgiving, we discussed that 50% of men believe they could land a passenger plane in an emergency. I have doubts about my brother, but I know Megan could. 

Anyway, here was her spread. Klay’s dad, Mychal Thompson, said it was as good as advertised, by the way. 

And here’s her fit at the Mavs game with Klay’s mom. Someone link me the shoes, I BEG. 

And here’s his new (?) boat, which he named after Megan. Yes, it’s called the SS Stallion.
