There are many issues with Lane. He is a permanent adolescent and not a solid representative of a university. Sure he would like a big paycheck at an SEC school but would he settle down and actually build a solid program? His flame out at USC was really something - he loses a few games and becomes a head case. The man needs to work in Conference USA awhile and establish that he indeed can manage himself and a program. Let him drive the Taurus awhile before giving him the keys to a Porsche. You never hear any USC fans having longings and heart palpitations for Lane Kiffin. The mindlessness of UT fans sometimes is beyond comprehension.
"The Trojans lost their first two conference games of the 2013 season against Washington State and Arizona State, making Kiffin's record 47 in his last eleven games. On September 28, 2013, after the 6241 loss to Arizona State, USC Athletics Director Pat Haden fired Kiffin hours after the game, when the team arrived back in Los Angeles at 3 a.m. Kiffin was called off the team bus that was preparing to head back to campus from Los Angeles International Airport and taken to a small room inside the terminal where Haden told Kiffin he was being dismissed. Haden supposedly met with USC president Max Nikias in the third quarter and they decided Kiffin should be terminated."
