Stability is important.........

Comparing records at USC & UT at this point is comparing apples and oranges. USC has more depth, plays in a weaker conference, and isn't working on their 3rd coach in 3 years.

I can tell you this.....Kiffin will never win the Pac-10, much less ever get close to accomplishing what PC did. If not for Monte, Kiffin would be managing a Krystal.

So, you admit he has managerial skills?

Ok well then you live in a different world than I do. Coaches always try to talk up their program, especially the top tier colleges. They all do it. What's he supposed to say? Act like he's not excited and that they might be gone if the USC job opens up? The USC job opening up was a freak occurrence. No one could've predicted that it would open this quickly and that they would offer Kiffin. USC was the one place (and maybe the NFL) that I knew he would leave for. It's his home. No one knows if or when he would've gotten that same offer again.

It's his dream job like I said. It's not like he went off and took a random job somewhere. All I'm saying is that if we each put ourselves in his shoes, most, if not all of us, would've done the same thing. We might've handled it differently, but there's no way that I don't take a job that is going to make me and my family's lives better and happier.

Couldn't agree more. I think it may be a can't see the forest for the trees type of phenomenon.

Listen.....I'm sorry Kiffin left. I know how much he meant to this program. I mean really, I don't know how we ever survived without him. He is a true leader of men.....just look at everything he has accomplished in his life............well, I can't really name anything right off hand, but you get the point. And the way he was able to energize us.....it doesn't matter if the things he was saying or the accusations he was making were true, it only matters that he was able to get us excited. And what a great representative for the U he was....it didn't matter that he couldn't talk in complete sentences, or that he had the IQ of Forest Gump, it just matter that he was our coach. And we loved him for that.

But, now he is gone. USC hired him away from us because he is clearly the best coach in America.

Dude, who is really out of touch here?

He keeps getting better jobs, which is, quite frankly, somewhat of a barometer as to what people think of your abilities and aptitude. Clearly, however, the professionals whose livelihoods depend on being accurate in such matters are imbeciles, and you should be the judge, jury, and executioner for coaches who inherit very little talent after year one. Your prognostication skills are clearly better than theirs, but you've squandered millions in not attending to your true calling. Now that I've broken your mantra down to it's basic premise, it sounds even more retarded than the first time I heard it. Fascinating.
