even if he is, lets say he comes here, gets playing time over some of our guys we have treated like future kings the past few weeks - then he robs a pilot with a pellet gun. not only does he kill our young team with a bright future but he DESTROYS our programs creditibilty at the same time. you can not deny how terrible the media would spin us taking a kiffin cast off that had already spurned us for kiffin....would be crippling
so are you confident enough that :
a) he truly is a great player
b) he can act like a grown man for the 4 years
risk simply not worth taking. no way |

With that said, if we can get Ambles and IF he can play by the rules, we should go get him. | If you have a great OL, but slow WRs and a RB with a bad case of the fumbles, you won't win regardless. If you can't put the ball in the endzone, it doesn't matter.

| Ambles had trouble with his grades, but other than that, he didn't do anything too bad. |

| Hey, The Barn rolled the dice with Cam Newton and look what it got them; a Heisman contender, a possible BCS NC, a killer ground game...
...and possible death penalty...but still...you gotta take chances. |

Ridiculous.
I for one hope he comes to UT.

If you can show me any proof that he's on track to rob a guy of his hamburger, I'd love to see it. Otherwise, you're just acting like a moron because you hate a guy that took a new job.

| He was dismissed cause Kiffin a joke. Ambles was better off here to start with. Kiffin not a coach and time will prove that the USC program will be run like a circus. Kiffin just wants to win and he willing to do whatever it takes. Kiffin told him a bunch of lies just to get him to buy in like he did us and when he got him out there he probley just threw him to the side. Let be honest Kiffin got the kid to just keep him away from us. So if Ambles what to come here I say come on. He will actually have A COACH and not a Hollywood scumbag. |
