Was funny when he was talkin trash bout other SEC schools. Not so funny now is it. Leave the man alone hes just lookin for publicity and sooner or later hes gonna fall flat on his face, and no one will hire him. Please all vol fans just ignore the man.:rock:

I'd take a year off of watching football if I could just see Lane and CEO put into the Boo Box.
If you've ever seen the movie Hook, you know what I'm talking about.

All right, that's good enough for me. I didn't blame him for taking the job, regardless of whether it set our program on fire or not, but now I feel free to hate him.

You don't blame him for walking out on us 3 weeks before signing day, effectively burning this program to the ground? For shacking up in our house until a better pad came along, taking a big dump on our carpet, talking smack he couldn't back up at our expense?

Pretty compassionate guy you are.

Charles Barkley has a picture of Lane in a yellow uniform having sex with a monkey. Maybe that is what he was talking about.

The way he bolted from the University and the state, I would say he has shown more yellow than anyone.

There may be some truth about some of the players playing for his dad, but Lane has not done anything to merit people flocking to him to play for him.

Good point, Chile. Hell, if it weren't for his dad, WE would have never heard of the little spoiled jerk. We all got played by the kiffins, but we will survive and prosper. Just wait and see. GO VOLS!!!

Kiffin is a nutcase.
He goes to a school with colors of blood and yellow and wants to talk about UT colors?
He goes to a school with a nickname of the major condom brand and wants to shoot off his mouth? At least we're protected from disease!
His wife drew more recruits than he did.

Maybe he was referring to the USC unis. What a POS. Guys like that get what the deserve. No one would even care if not for his father. He has and will discredit the entire family name. Glad the POS is gone.

Everybody knew this was just about business for him from the get-go. He was always going to leave for the NFL or USC if he got the chance, and everybody -- including Hamilton -- knew it. The reasonable assumption was that he would have to build up an attractive resume before he'd get a top opportunity like that, probably including an SEC championship, and that even if he left after only 3 or 4 years, the talent would be stacked up for the next guy. He was going to take that opportunity whenever it came; I didn't blame him for grabbing it when it came a few years earlier than everybody expected, no.

Like I said when this first happened. Its best that he is gone. He could have said "it was a great opportunity, but this is where I wanted to be." Why is the put down necessary?

I say let him burn all the bridges he wants because he has already burned a lot over the past 2 years. Eventually, his Daddy won't be able to save his butt anymore.

He didn't say that...I heard it live and you can go to the thread about it on TOS, they are saying the same thing.

He said:
"The recruits weren't coming to UT to wear the COLOR uniform, they were coming to play for this coaching staff."

Leaving after 3-4 years, once we were built back up, is one thing. Running off 16 players, then the better part of another signing class, is another. He made us unwilling participants in a mexican donkey show.

With most things in life there is a right way and a wrong way. He did it the wrong way. Its pretty simple, it goes to down to just being a decent person - of which he is not. We gave him money, control, and the chance to further his career. He bit of the hand... no, make that the upper body... of the arm that fed him.

Always striving for the next best thing is fine in theory, but thats why people buy crap they can't afford and why the divorce rate is > 50%. At some point, people just have to make a decision that isn't 100% focused on numero uno.

If Kiffin had built us up and left in the off season... fine. But he just sent this program back to the stone ages. We will be lucky to have 60 SEC quality athletes for 2010.

We're going to be reminiscing on the good ole days of the Sullins brothers manning our o-line in a couple of years.... it could very well get that bad.

But hey, as long as Kiffin follows his dream, I guess its OK, right?

Link if you don't mind because I am not entirely sure where you are talking about. Excuse my ignorance.

Also, I don't see that as being any better. He still just slammed UT by claiming players would rather play for Lane "has't done anything" Kiffin rather than the storied program of Tennessee and it's Volunteers.

I vote for this one. Glad he's gone, not just from ya'lls team, but from the SEC. He would've brought a lot of trouble to the conference. He's toxic regardless of where he is.

He didn't deserve a job in this conference.

That's the thread...and I agree, it isn't much better, but it certainly isn't the dig the "yellow" comment would have been.

This is exactly what I've said since Tuesday night and people look at me like I'm insane. The timing sucks, but the administration knew he would take an NFL or Pac10 job if ever offered. They just thought it would take 4-6 years at least for someone to want to pull him from us.

I was telling a buddy this past weekend that I hoped USC made a good hire that would be there 10 years, because that would mean at least another 10 before Kiffin could bolt for it. Didnt think they would want to take a flier on him right now, but oh well. Life will go on and he'll continue to embarrass himself if he can't harness his ego and his mouth.

I hope he is happy with no TV for two years, no bowl games, loss of scholarships and on probation for 3 years!
