i dont know what to think of him. He's done little to nothing up at oakland (unless al likes him he'll get fired). I know he's got that tie into carrol at So cal too, but does that necessarily make him into a good coach?

"At times we're playing as well as anybody in the league. I know that sounds strange for you guys to hear, but look at the numbers," Kiffin said in his news conference. "Look at the way we're playing in the first three quarters of the last three weeks in a row; we're playing good enough to be on a three-game winning streak. All that being said, we're 1-3."

ESPN - Source: Raiders owner Davis making moves to start process of replacing Kiffin - NFL

Sounds like a winner.

I think Kiffin has at least improved the Raiders. They were complete crap when he got there.

Kiffin would be a great coach for us! No one will be worth anything under Al Davis! That man is about as smart as Bud Adams!

I hate to tell you but Saban sucked in Miami. Looks like he's doing pretty good now. #2 in the country after just 1 year. Just because you can't do well in the NFL doesn't mean you won't be successful in college. I think Kiffen is ready to be a HC just not in the NFL.
