The question of "the number of blunders made by Kiffin until the start of spring practice" is impossible to determine wthout first establishing the criteria for a "blunder."
A "blunder" can be anything from a major NCAA rules infraction, to an ordinary accidental oversight of a schoo policy.
Not counting the hiring of family members as a violation of school policy, (since it was immediately addressed and handled by school officials) as a "blunder." nor, the misunderstanding that the football coach can terminate school employees and staff members under the terms of his contract and job description as a "blunder." or, excluding all direct references to opposing coaches, unsigned recruits, and simulating game conditions as "minor violations that don't mean anything," and, classifying any actions that defy common sense relating to decions made in the football environment pertaning to the players, football operations, not as a "blunder," but as a "restoration of the "swagger" and traditions of UT's glory days," I'll say, (0).

On the other hand, if consideration is given for the history that past behaviors, and the frequency of negative events, can be representative of "blunder potential," one might conculde the worst is yet to come.

I realize this will extremely difficult for you (Keeping your homo-erotic fantasies aside) but, who do you condider "Nega Kiffs?"
a.) The local and state media? (radio talk shows, newspapers)
b.) The national media? (ESPN, Sports Illustrated)
c.) Anyone who'd dare post an opinion on this website that doesn't glorify Kiffin Almighty?
or, d.) All of the above

It's not the dissenting opinions about Kiffin; it's the baseless ones that are annoying.

Zero. He hasn't made a blunder yet. Everything he has done has been intentional. When doing something intentional it is not a blunder.

I'll concede your point that his actions were calcuated strategies when you can demonstrate how:
*verbal reprimands from the SEC office
*written letters are filed from your boss, and the univesity, denouncing your actions
*national negative media exposure
*keeping a university's public/media relations and athletic offices in a public denial mode
*public declarations that one of your primary rivals is engaging in cheating (as if winning the SEC East wasn't enough team motivtion)
*running off a tandem of in-coming freshmen qb's and a speed burner
*unsucessfully firing university staff who don't work in your department

have a commonly known positive effect on a college, it's football team, or, if so, why doesn't every rookie head coach with no prior experience using the same tactics?

*verbal reprimands from the SEC office told to apologize is no big deal
*written letters are filed from your boss, and the univesity, denouncing your actions surely you do not view this as serious, if so you need help
*national negative media exposure we have not been the only school with violations, but we are the only school to be in the media. If the media wasn't scared of the staff there would be no exposure
*keeping a university's public/media relations and athletic offices in a public denial mode that is not happening so why make it up
*public declarations that one of your primary rivals is engaging in cheating (as if winning the SEC East wasn't enough team motivtion) look dude if CLK thought it was really cheating it would not have been revealed at a breakfast booster function. It was rah rah talk and that will have no impact on the game. If you think UF will run the score up because of that your wrong. Meyer has never called the dogs off and never will because it is about style points something Fulmer never could get thru his head.
*running off a tandem of in-coming freshmen qb's and a speed burner What part of not wasting a scholarship do you not comprehend? Kiffin ran Boyd thru some sets and determined he did not fit his system and was not well Boyd is having knee surgery, What part of not signing someone who will not play is confusing for you.
*unsucessfully firing university staff who don't work in your department He did fire them, but Hamilton rehired them and reassigned them. Get your facts right

have a commonly known positive effect on a college, it's football team, or, if so, why doesn't every rookie head coach with no prior experience using the same tactics? Fulmer is gone let go dude

all the press dosnt matter to me,better to have bad press than no press,plus its not really anything major (reminds me of the paris hilton garbage)

ill give him props for a great staff,and if he can actually coach and quit stepping on his toes,he may well turn into to something special :)
