hot takes.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Now.

Speaker 1 (00:06):
Normally on a Monday we mostly just talk NFL. However,
we do have a mantra on the overnight show. We
go where the news of the day takes us. And
there's no bigger story in sports than the uprising in Oxford, Mississippi,
after Old Miss said bye bye to their coach he left.

(00:29):
Should ol Miss have let Lane Kiffin coach through the
college football Playoff? They are one of the top teams
in the country this year. Also, Lane Kiffin said God
told him to leave Ole Miss for LSU. Has that
one hit you? And how do you see Pat Fitzgerald? Yeah,
the old Northwestern coach who's in line to take over
at Michigan State for Old Sparty. We'll talk about that

(00:51):
as well. A college football heavy beginning to our three.
Then we'll shift back in to the NFL. Here it
is our number three. Time for a lane change, a
lane change. Welcome in the beginning of another hour of
the Ben Malar Show. We are in the air avywhere

(01:15):
as we are alongside let me tell you something, we
are your taste trifecta coast to coast border to border
and beyond on the mast and boisterously powerful microphones of
FSR am monating live from the match the price Match

Guarantee on this Cyber Monday from the world famous Fox
Sports Radio Studios, as approved by mikey Cano don't you know?
And Danny in Nashville who lives in Miami. But he's
the guy that visited us years ago and hid in
the bushes outside the Fox Sports Radio studios. This portion

(01:58):
of the Ben Maler Show off, it's made possible by
our friends at tire Iraq. For over forty years, tire

the rare and appropriate college football. What a story. This
is quite man, This is a humdinger. That's a good story.
I love a good story. A good story. A people screaming,

(02:41):
shouting profanity giving the bird to these guys. This person
Oxford Mississippi. Never been there? You ever been? I've never been,
never been, k Mississippi, never been. Uh So, the weight
is over. It was supposed to happen on Saturday. It
did not happen on Saturday. Where is it? Lane Kevin said?
Bye bye. Lane is leaving Oh Miss a lateral move.

(03:04):
He's staying in the Southeastern Conference. He's taking a job
in Baton Rouge, a lesser team this season LSU. He
will not coach the Rebels in the college football playoff,
which is upcoming here. He announced both things on Sunday
afternoon with a lot of drama. The drama O rama

(03:25):
from Lane Kiffin, the culmination of a week long sojourn
into the coaching carousel for Lane Kiffin. It's been the
thing everyone in that world in college football has been
talking about the last couple of weeks. It was a
great debate that took place and continue to take place.
And Lane Kiffin is in this weird position where everyone says,

(03:47):
I want to win, I want to win, I want
to win, I want to win. I want to win. Okay,
you got a team good enough to win and you're leaving.
Uh oh Spaghettio. Oh yeah, he's gone. So this has
never happened this way where you know the teams have
coaches leave all the time, but typically if you have

(04:08):
a championship team, a team that is planned for a title,
you don't leave that team. You don't do it well.
Lane Kiffin decided, I need the money and I'm out,
you suckers, see you later. He's gone, And so yeah,
he had this wild scene as he's not going to
coach the team in the College Football Playoff. You had
old miss fans who were booing loudly. They found out

(04:32):
where the private planes were. I guess there's not that
many private planes in Oxford, Mississippi. So by the process
of elimination, they found out what part of the airport
Lane Kiffin's planes from LSU were at, and then proceeded.
There were a couple I think a couple hundred people
that showed up. I guess he got nothing else to
do in Oxford, Mississippi on a Sunday afternoon. My god,

(04:53):
that they were there. They were there to boom, Yeah,
and they did. They shouted obscenities, Southern hospitality there to
Lane kiffen see Elaine and a bunch of his friends
and family. I guess mostly family that got off the
SUVs and then got onto the plane to go back

(05:15):
to bottom Rouge. And we actually have some audio. We
have some sound of Lane Kiffin. He did do an
interview at the airport. Here is Lane Kiffin who said
that he did plan on coaching. He wanted to coach
ole Miss. The school had other ideas though.

Speaker 3 (05:33):
Again I totally respect Keith's decision.

Speaker 1 (05:36):
So that was his decision.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
Yeah, yeah, he asked me not to come to the
meeting and said I can come, but which I totally understand.
You know, I don't know that I necessarily agree with that.
You know, we're trying to find a way, you know,
to make this work and coach the team and give
the team the best chance to win. But I also
he's got a job to do, and like he said,
he has to live here. And he said, maybe all
the national people understand why he should let me coach,

(05:59):
but he has to here and it's a little different
when you're they do. So totally respect that. And Keith
has been amazing to us over the six years.

Speaker 1 (06:06):
Okay, so there's a link. Here's more from lank If
and why'd you turn your back on the old miss
guys and go to LSU. Let's I gotta hear this,
this is would be good here.

Speaker 3 (06:17):
My heart was here. But I just you know, I
talked to some mentors, Coach Carroll, Coach Saban, you know,
and especially when Coach Carroll said, and your dad would
tell you to go man, take the shot, you know,
take the shot if you accomplished a lot here. You know,
I always felt I always hated how we only gave
one year to Tennessee and left. I really hated that
feeling of that, you know, even though it was exciting year.

(06:39):
But you know, I think that we gave a lot
to this program, into the city and you know, some
of those historic wins in this stadium they've ever had,
and best best regular season in the history of the school.
So I feel proud of that part. But it just
became time, you know, I talked to God and go me,
it's time to take a new step. It's a new chapter.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
We're gonna play off that in a minute. That last part.
We might want to bring that back, but let's start
with There's a lot of things to pick a part here,
but the jumping off point would be whether or not
to allow Lane Kiffin to coach in the playoff playoff,
and there's some that have made passionate arguments like Lane
Kiffin should be allowed to coach Ole Miss in the

(07:23):
college football playoff. This is these are his players, this
is his team until next year then it will be
LSU's team and all that stuff. So the question, as
we discuss the question, should Old Miss have let Lane
Kiffin coach in the college football playoff? Which is now
right around the corner. So my views on this, I've

(07:44):
got car wash, blocking full back and boxed wine and
we will combine all of these things together and we're
gonna make some grits with a side of Gabba gul
all right, So, first of all, to answer the question,
should Old Miss have allowed Lane Kiffin to coach even

(08:04):
though he's chosen to go to LSU, The answer is
N plus Z equals no. No, no, no, no, no
hard stop no, nope, absolutely not. They've made the only
call that one can make in this situation at Old Miss.
It's kind of like if your wife dumps you for
a tech billionaire and she says, you know, the house

(08:26):
that we're building in Malibu is not quite done. Can
I just can I just stay with you can until
the house is well. No, no, no you can't. No,
that's not how that works. So it's not really a
relationship with the hostage situation is what it is here.
And Kiffen, he didn't take a coaching job. He won
the powerball jackpot in Batsl Rouge. This is fine. Just

(08:50):
admit it. Don't give me the old god stuff and
all you just went because that's where the money was.
And it just admitted, And don't tell me it's for
some kind of other higher calling. No it's not. It's
none of that stuff. It's the same exact job. It's
kind of I do a radio show, right, it's my world.
I do the same job that Colin Cowry does. He
gets paid like seventy times when I get paid. But

(09:12):
you think he would go and do what I do? No,
you think I would go and do it? He'd yes,
I'd sell out and do the day shift and be
boring like all the daytime. I would, absolutely, I've said that.
But you look at this situation, right, and seven years
anywhere from eighty five to one hundred million dollars based

(09:33):
on bonuses and things like that, he gets a front
row seat now since he's not coaching Old Miss, he
can hang out and cuddle with Mike the Tiger, the
live Tiger mascot, and watch Old Miss on television in
the playoff. And if you keep it real, Lane Kiffin
is the king of the coaching car wash. He is,

(09:54):
he is, He pulls, pulls in dirty and then comes
out shine like he left Old Miss. They are shanning profanities.
Just f bomb fu f you know this. They're planning
stories on the internet about Lane doing some really bad
stuff on the internet when he was coaching Old Miss
and paying people off and all this. And then he
goes to LSU and he's the king. You know, everyone

(10:15):
loves him. Oh, you're so great, we love you Lane,
way to go and all it's the car wash leaves
dirty and then they wash him from head to tell
you him a tongue bath when he gets to baton
rouge fourteen seasons. You know how many times a Lane
Kiffin coach team is finished in the top ten. How
many times that would be one? How many times in
the top five has Alane Kiffin was obviously one? Or none?

(10:38):
How about none? Zero? There have been no confetti parades
or anything for Lane Kiffen as a head coach. The
man has more viral quotes, which we're grateful for, more
viral quotes than signature wins at LSU. Now he goes
to LSU and all the place he's been Tennessee sc
I guess we got to count fau, but not really

(10:59):
in Boca. And then obviously what he's done recently at
Old Miss, and so it has not been on the menu,
the championship pedigree, and he's a carnival barker. He brings
the razzle dazzle, which we're fine with. We're okay with that,
and so Old Miss just says, that's it. We're going
to cut ties. And they changed the locks and they

(11:22):
promoted their defensive coordinator and they chose clarity over chaos.
And the argument that was an argument was made for
years as well. Listen, just let him coach out. It's
much different because of the portal now, and you know
that Lane is going to be poaching the good players
on Old Miss. Hey, why don't you come with me
to Baton Rouge. Enter the portal. We'll bring you over here. Right,

(11:46):
come on to the portal and true on the Lane train.
Come on, come to the portal, and so he made
his decision, The school made their decision, and Lane can
take his visor, change the logo, go off the LSU,
and the Rebels can take their shot at history. Unlikely

(12:06):
to win the championship, but there's no unbeatable team in
college football this year. Now. Secondly, the SoundBite that we
played there, the second one where he's talked about Pete
Carroll and Nick Saban and he said Lane said that
he ultimately chose LSU over Ole Miss because of God
he played. Can we play that again? Let's play that again?

(12:26):
This is Lane Kenvin. I just need the last part.
I don't need the rest of it, just the last part.
I think that's the key part of this. So Lane
kiffing here on why he decided to leave Old Miss
and make a lateral move to LSU in the same conference.

Speaker 3 (12:42):
See here, You know, I talk to God and do
mean it's time to take a new step.

Speaker 1 (12:46):
It's a new chapter there. You go talk to God
and God told them he got Elane has time to
go somewhere else, all right, So Lane playing the God
card from the bottom of the deck. How does that one?
How does that one hit you? So Laane Kevin didn't
just leave old Miss. He left with a plus one.

(13:09):
He did saying God told him. Apparently God even doesn't
like old Miss.

Speaker 3 (13:15):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (13:15):
You know God is now calling audibles audible audible audible.
Uh and on coaches, college football coaches. That's wild to be.
So Laine is leaving and he's using the Almighty as
a blocking fullback. Well, I I asked God for some advice,

(13:36):
and God said, you know, the lsu Baton Rouge is
a great place to coach. That is weak sauce is
what that is? Again? Just say listen, they offered me
one hundred fn million dollars nothing to do with God.
Uh No, did the heavens part and did a voice say,
go forth to Baton Rouge. Collect that twelve to fifteen

(13:59):
minus dollars a year. Lane, do it for God. Come on,
And I am not here to have some kind of
debate about religion and all that. I'm not theology. I'm
not going down that road. However, this is classic Lane Kiffen,
the razzle dazzle. He knows what plays. It's some Bible

(14:21):
belt trickeration by Lane Kiffen on this one. And it says,
I guess it says in the Bible. Life is not
measured by how much you own. It says that in
the Bible. Of course, we've learned over the years that
we're pretty sure that does not include buyouts, right buyouts, recruiting, budgets,
nil funds, all that stuff. Another truth is, and I've

(14:44):
learned this as I've gotten older, that the Bible can
justify pretty much anything. Anything. It's not a knock on
the next per se. It's the critique of human inter interpretation,
meaning that the actual book, it's just there and you
can interpret it how you want. The text of it

(15:06):
is when I meant, but the it's a mere people.
People see what they want to see in the reflection.
So Lane also weaponizing this using as well, you can't
rip me because I prayed, and this is what God
wanted me to do. God likes purple and yellow more
than apparently the old miscolors. And that's what that's all about. Now. Meanwhile,
LSU plays in a stadium where when they play at night,

(15:26):
it's called what it's called death Valley. That does God
like death Death Valley? All right? Come on, they call
it that. It doesn't sound very heavenly to me. What
do I do? All right, so there you go. Good
luck to Lane played the God card. There, it's a
direct deposit. God's a fan of money apparently. All right, now,

(15:47):
final thought. I wanted to mention this because this seems
like kind of a big deal in East Lansing, Michigan
Old Sparty Michigan State. Now they fired Jonathan Smith, who
had been the coach at Oregon State and then went
to Michigan State. Was an epic fail for the Spartans,
and so two years after he was hired they say
bye bye. They whacked his ass. And that was one

(16:10):
day after the Spartans defeated Maryland to conclude the regular season,
and former Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald has emerged. He's back,
although not done done. It's expected to be announced when
the sun rises today that Pat fitzgerial yet, that Pat Fitzgerald,
the one that was in scandal, is going to take over.

(16:31):
So the question how do you see Pat Fitzgerald working
out as he's back in the game in the big
ten at Michigan State. How do you see this working out?
So it is a calculated gamble by Michigan State. Michigan
State is buying low on a guy who's very angry

(16:52):
because he feels like he got the screwjob in college
football and he wants to prove a point and all
that stuff. And he finished above five hundred most of
the time. It seems like he was at Northwestern there.
That's like being Nick Saban in Evanston, Illinois. The man
literally turned water into college football, boxed wine while he

(17:15):
was coaching at Northwestern. And so Fitzgerald was vindicated. This
is the part some people don't like. He was vindicated
without ever being vindicated, if you know what I mean.
Let me explain. So Northwestern fired him and there was
this whole hazing scandal that took place. So Fitzgerald decided,
I'm gonna sue you because this is not true. I

(17:37):
did not do the things you're accusing me of doing.
So he sued them. He sued them for one hundred
and thirty million dollars. This thing's been going through the
court system. The hazing scandal was uh goo lead with
a capitol U. There were allegations of abuse, racial claims
all come in the full Monty lawsuits were flying in
the air everywhere like a T shirt cannon firing these

(18:00):
things off. Fitzgerald though he swears he didn't know what
was going on. He said there was no smoking gun,
none of that stuff. And it turns out that Northwestern
apparently agreed or they were not willing to fight, because
they reached an out of court settlement. And this is
why Michigan State is now like, all right, we'll roll
the dice on this guy. And they want to coach

(18:23):
with edge, and he was one of the more beloved coaches,
and someone with a chip on their shoulder, you get that.
You want people with a chip on their shoulder. And
he's got a chip on the shoulder the size of
a sliding blocking sled and all that stuff. And the
NIL now it's obviously different. Now it's changed every year.
It's a little crazier in college football, the NIL landscape
and all that. And I don't know what kind of

(18:44):
resources Michigan State's going to give Fitzgerald the recruit big
ten money. Are they going to be able to compete
with Ohio State and Michigan Probably not in terms of
the amount of money they have to spend. But you
can put a good team together and put something nasty
there in East Lansing. It's risky, it's unco comfortable, but
it actually has a pretty good shot of working here.

(19:05):
This is one of those Boomer bust situations. Boomer Bust,
no middle classic sparty football. It is the Ben Mahler Show.

the utensils well enough at restaurants.

Oh, he might be right, actually, Oh.

Speaker 1 (25:36):
Spaghetti spends a lot of time in restaurants. Are they
not clean? They don't clean the silverware and all that stuff.
