Title: With Saban's Stamp of Approval, Lane Kiffin rises again Post by: Marshal Dillon on January 09, 2016, 09:47:23 PM Good stuff.
:dog: Quote A 40-year-old offensive coordinator for a team playing for a national championship would usually be a rising star. Unless that coach is Lane Kiffin, who is already both a reclamation project and the most infamous assistant coach in college football. A three-time — and twice fired — head coach, Kiffin is in the second season of restoring his reputation with Nick Saban's stamp of approval. Quote It seems inevitable Kiffin will get a fourth crack at being a head coach, even though the first three stints were tumultuous. He was fired after 20 games with the Oakland Raiders (2007-08). He bolted after a season at Tennessee (2009) to replace Carroll at USC. He went 28-15 with the Trojans, playing with a roster limited by NCAA sanctions. Even Kiffin thinks he rose to the top too quickly. http://news.yahoo.com/sabans-stamp-approval-lane-kiffin-rises-again-003111236--spt.html Title: Re: With Saban's Stamp of Approval, Lane Kiffin rises again Post by: McBaman on January 10, 2016, 01:52:17 PM The laundering of Lane continues. If he stays one more year, he'll be (mostly) deodorized from his past.
I hope he stays another two years and leaves Bama with an established QB for what would be the upcoming season with an new OC.

We sure have a lot of one year wonders who plays in the big games. RTR!

We sure have a lot of one year wonders who plays in the big games. RTR! Hurts is an early enrollee and is already pushing Barnett for the starting job. We will have another QB shootout this spring and fall. From what I'm hearing, Hurts has a tremendous amount of talent, and is fleet of foot. |
