He's apparently threatening to take his entire offensive staff with him to Baton Rouge if Ole Miss won't let him. What a mess that's become. Kiffin's final decision finally got the carousel spinning. Florida went all in on the Kiffin sweepstakes and got burned, forced to move down the board.

Sumrall seemed to be the backup plan for both LSU and Florida should they not land…...

just now (260+ words) As my kids have grown up, I've tried to come to terms with the slow loss of them to the world. While this is the natural order of parenting, it's still hard to accept. They've moved forward, and I've mourned the loss of our time together. Evenings once spent watching shows or talking have become rare. They spend more time with friends than with me, and I've wondered how to remain a relevant part of their lives.

There are five presidential candidates on the bill, but the poll is essentially being seen as a three-way race between former defence minister Rixi Moncada of the leftist Libre party, TV host Salvador Nasralla from the centrist Liberals, and businessman Nasry "Tito" Asfura, of the right-wing National Party.
