Looks like plenty of our “fans” were willing to double down on Lane even as he was losing 5 out of 6 to end the year…..in year three.
I actually thought he was pretty good at selecting assistant coaches. He had quite a coaching tree of success from his time at FIU and at Oregon.so we should just pick and choose what time period we want to make our argument? Instead of judging the entire body of work?
What skills as a coach does mario have that makes him a big time head coach?
1. Recruiting
2......
3......
4.....
5.....
Why do Fiu fans and Oregon fans both say he is a overrated head coach and fantastic recruiter.
Whats funny is we as a fanbase can tell any team the negatives on manny, golden, shannon but we refuse to listen to fans who have witnessed mario for years. Very arrogant of us.
We try to tear Lane down with unfounded ideas? He just lost 5 out of 6 with his team. His guys. If people are going to blast our first year coach who ended up having to use a true freshman QB, please explain to me why a phenomenal coach like Lane had such a collapse with everything under his control.Since we went with Mario when many wanted Lane (myself included), there's always going to be an element that tries to tear the man down. Even the most ardent supporters of Mario had to pause and question their belief in him after this past season. Nobody saw 5 - 7 coming.
The fact that Lane is a guy in their head makes them try and determine why he wasn't the right guy, but Mario was instead. That way they can hopefully still believe Mario is the guy, not another mistake in a long run of them.
So let's try and take Lane down with unfounded beliefs and ideas.
Lane can't recruit. That's not true.
Lane wouldn't recruit as well here and the Columbus mafia (I crack up every time I see this, so dumb) wouldn't support him in the same fashion. While he might not be Mario on the trail, he's **** good. NIL is the giant equalizer in the modern day recruiting game and if given the same or close to it support, Lane would capitalize as well.
Lane would've jumped ship at the next great opportunity. Okay, and? Do you know our history? Every winning coach here has used this place as a launching pad to another bigger job or more money. Well, those that didn't get fired.
Lane is a **** good coach. He would've done better this past year, but long term we better hope it's Mario. Why some have to tear another good coach down to make themselves feel better about our guy, that's just silly to me even if I get it.
Umm he plays in the SEC. Had the 28th hardest schedule in the country. With a mid tier sec program.We try to tear Lane down with unfounded ideas? He just lost 5 out of 6 with his team. His guys.

like asking why wake forest struggled down the stretch.
Actually i wanted clawson way more than mario.Except no one is claiming that the Wake Forest coach would dominate at Miami.
Lane lost to Arkansas and Mississippi State. Middling programs. Check Arkansas’ last five games. Then he lost to Texas Tech and their backup QB, and Texas Tech isn’t SEC as far as I know.
Maybe we should be looking at Sam Pittman since Lane is the one opponent he could dominate.
What year was their coach in?????Duke won 9 games.
Great post!!!!A few things can be true:
- Lane would have won 9 games here year 1
- Because he won 9 games he would have had a class ranked 9-14 in the end
- He didn’t expect to stay at Ole Miss therefore recruiting is a struggle
- His philosophy will be more portal wins than recruiting wins while at Ole Miss
Mario will ‘fix’ the issues in the program but Lane would have made TVD a 4,000 yard passer IMO.
Miami and ole miss are not the same. Never have been. Never will be.Hmm, so Lane loses 4 in a row and 5 of the last 6 in year 3 at the same school, and so many of you are still fighting each other at the chance to suck him off. Y'all are funny! Don't think for a second if any coach at Miami loses in similar fashion in year 3 that you wouldn't be calling for their head.
Lane is a flashy JAG with no loyalty. I would never support someone like that.
Mtsu is a juggernaut that miamis 4 and 5 stars cant compete with. We need 3 more classes.Liberty beats Arkansas….in Arkansas
Arkansas blows out Ole Miss
“Lane has it so tough in the SEC!!!”
