Lane Kiffin is not needed here at UT

[allvol123]

Love how you ignore his other 5 years of coaching in the power 5 with nothing to show for it.

Show me that record. Oh yea, better than anything we have had lately.

 

[JMSqb11]

So, why didn't it work out at USC?

Patrick Haden being a horrible AD.

 

[docbarnes]

Bottom line, the man can coach. He should have beat Alabama with a team that had far less talent than what’s on the field today (Cody blocked the winning fg). Got crompton drafted in the nfl.

His answer ought to be good

This thread just proves what a Kiffin hire would do. Completely divide the fanbase.

WInning cures all. Pretty sure majority of fan base would be down with it if it actually happened. Local media would absolutely love it.

By the way, you still haven’t named one realistic coach that would come here and that would be better in development, recruiting, or coaching.

You mean the record where he has averaged less than 8 wins a year as a head coach?

Until we started winning of course.

 

[ru4real-really?]

Probably over 20 plus threads begging Kiffin to come back...

Question for all the Kiffinites.

What makes you so sure he wants to come back? He mocks and goes out of his own way to find something negative to post about UT on Twitter. Funny thing is, some of ya’ll really believe he’s matured. He still hasn’t changed one bit nor does he have respect for this University.

Sorry but a coach with integrity doesn’t seem to fit Kiffin’s narrative.

Maybe somewhere like UL or FSU would be a better landing spot if he’s really that desperate.

Not to mention, what the hell has he proven as a HC in the SEC? I’m not talking about being an OC.

Huge difference between those two.

People who believed in Gruden was a possibility got blasted but somehow the folks who believe Kiffin would be a great option, they get praised for it.

Kiffin had his chance but he pissed it away. The fans nor the University doesn’t owe him a damn thing expect a giant middle finger.

stupid out of touch post...

read something

Oddly enough....

Lane Kiffin P5 wins in 4+ seasons: 35
Butch Jones P5 wins in 4+ seasons: 34

three more that the Vols have averaged lately--count'em up and that's bout thirty more than what we've had!

 

[VolStrom]

I think the young bucks should get their wish. Let Kiffin come in with his brash style and wicked mouth. Let Kiffin show us hillbillies how to run Tennessee football.
We need someone like him because Georgia, Alabama and Auburn have coaches like him and it works for them.

lol

 

[allvol123]

As a college coach he averages over 8 wins a season.

Unless you are averaging in a season where he only got 5 games. But only a dishonest person or imbecile would do that.

I agree. Wanting Kiffin back is like wanting your ex girlfriend back after she left your ass for another man in the middle of the night. I know the reference is tired and overused, but to me thats exactly how it feels. Except imagine her leaving you THEN going on twitter and making fun of you at every opportunity. People who want him hired have no pride and are pathetic.

Rather have Kiffin as a coach than you as a fan.

55 scholarship players at USC.
A Fulmer roster that hadn't recruited in two years..

When he gets a full deck to play with. Whoever has him is going to win big.

 

[TennTom]

This is an older article but is very specific why Kiffin isn't getting a sniff at over a dozen P-5 school's coaching searches. He has so many negative intangibles that ADs are not willing to take a chance on. It's a good read and spot on.

Lane Kiffin'''s Last Chance: '''This Is a Defining Job, One Way or the Other''' | Bleacher Report

 

[Volsurance]

Lane Kiffin took the wormburner from NC and turned him into a serviceable SEC QB. Have you forgotten that?

Lane Kiffin came inches from beating Alabama with our average talent at the time.

Lane Kiffin knows how to laugh and enjoy life (akin to Spurrier who I love other than for the fact that he owned us when Fulmer was coach).

But ill informed fans and nervous boosters are not going to allow him to come.

He would dominate the SEC East if he were our coach.

I have no doubt.

Haha! The Kiffy fanboys don't like facts.

You’re right, I shouldn’t have counted the season where he was left on the tarmac after 5 games without his team. My bad

 

[dirtysouth_20004]

People wanting him back are stupid!! He's been disrespecting Tennessee since he left!

Not your bad, just who you are.

 

[Vol Main]

I want to start beating Alabama and think Lane Kiffin is the coach who can do it.

Just like he dominated at USC?

 

[SmileyVol_c/o_10]

Dudes gotta do anything to bring attention to FAU. He's actually being what FAU needs. And it's working.

lol ok. No matter what, you can’t escape the simple fact that he has 1 more victory than Butch Jones in power 5 head coaching in the same amount of time like GA Vol pointed out. And that’s who you want to lead us to the promised land.
