When was Kiffin ever accused of having anything to do with Reggie Bush's troubles?

He was calling plays as much as Trooper has this year at OSU. Everybody knows Steve Sarkisian is the man out there!! Nice try though!

I think that's reasonable

Yes, we all want a giant mess and massive failure for UT.

I agree. It's the height of arrogance.

iF HE can bring coach o in to recruit and Kiff can recruit as well maybe it is what we need...There will most assuredly be some more passion from the coaching staff on the sideline and that can't hurt.

Solid Leads.....

Now this is the kind of reliable reporting we need. Enough of he said, they heard, a relative said, and pure guess work. Walter Cronkite would be proud!

So there you have, our source!
That's all folks!

Uh, no Kiffin was the man as far as practice and game planning. He was the guy who made the players better. Thus, have you noticed the stagnation of many position players since Kiffin left. Sark called plays that is true. Kiffin ran practices and game planned.

The scandal with Bush has never had any connections to Kiffin. You are just pulling stuff out of thin air trying to argue your cause. Its kinda sad.

Tell us about the SCANDAL. It must have been horrible. How was Kiffin linked and what sanctions hit USC?
