lol like that has anything to do with how successful their college football team is. Alabama is slightly less poor. Georgia is also in the top 10 poorest states by salary.
Watch out for UCONN - super rich state just waiting to build a football powerhouse

Because he’s clearly waiting for us to offer him when Rhule leaves for Penn St.

Yeah, the state’s overall gdp and average income has little impact on the amount of money the university has and/or its top donors. You (the school) only need a handful of mega donors to fund your NIL and/or coaches salaries/buyouts. Often times some of those mega donors don’t even live in state. They’re an alum who moved to NYC or California after they graduated and made bank.

Ole Miss is low pressure and he can probably make in the ball park of what Florida would pay him? Why move?

Probably easier to win a NC at Florida. Higher ceiling all else equal. Probably a little bit easier to recruit to. Larger fan base, more eyeballs and attention, and considered a more prestigious job which helps the ego. It's a trade off
He’s basically maxed out Ole Miss IMO, might as well take the next step to try to actually compete for national titles.

bro. florida and ole miss are in the same bracket
In what way? I’ve seen Florida win in my lifetime. What has Ole Miss ever done? Hiesmans? National Titles? Top NFL players? I’d agree there’s less pressure at Ole Miss but that’s about it. I’d have to imagine Florida has a lot more money than Ole Miss, a better history of success, better facilities. The fact that Florida’s sucked since Urban left doesn’t mean it’s all of a sudden a worse job than Ole Miss.

Yeah if you think Florida and Ole Miss are in the same bracket you have to think Nebraska and Minnesota are in the same bracket
Maybe we are but that is depressing as hell
I almost added this exact example into my reply.

3 National titles, just like FU. FU has won in your lifetime, but a lifetime ago and were nothing before that. Florida is undergoing stadium renovations, paying the buyouts for two coaches they fired, and still doesn't have a Prez. CLK does not care for Stricklin the AD. How is FU going to buy out LK's Miss contract, pay him 13.5 (I still don't believe that report) and have the NIL that would be needed to be back as a contender? It might happen. I would just be surprised if it isn't Drink instead.

Easiest thing in the world as a school:
"Lane we want to hire you."
"No."
"Put out the press release we were prepared to pay 13.5mm/yr to Lane Kiffin"
I would assume if a coach went to Florida and started winning they’d basically have an unlimited amount of money to work with but I could be way off on that.

It’s the South. They will use tax payer money, spend every dollar they have for the foosball. Considering rev share of $15mm for foosball it isn’t that difficult for an entire state to come up with $15-$25mm for NIL every year. You just have to get the boosters to go in vs our retarded ones who hold it for certain benchmarks and cuck the whole program for their personal egos and power trips.

I wouldn’t let my dog take a piss in MS. Oxford is a shithole and Starkville is an even bigger shithole.

I love Oxford! I don't care for the Summers there, but in the Fall is nice and I like the downtown. I don't care either way on Starkville, and would only go for a game.
