Kiffin would leave Oxford, MS in a heart beat.

Not for the Tennessee job at the moment. If people don't think he had offers already that he turned down, then pay attention to the extension and raise he got right after the season. Auburn and South Carolina both offered him. Florida also engaged in conversations with him pertaining to his long term plans as certain stipulations could lead to Mullen skipping town within a year.

I'd rather be turned down by guys that are considered "swinging for the fences" vs settling.

of course if it was my decision, I'd load the boat and offer guys like Lincoln Riley the highest paying contract in the entire country to get them here. Make them turn down money

Since when is a .632 career winning percentage coach considered swinging for the fences? Kiffin has been basically the same at every stop, an 8-4 coach. Is that better than Pruitt? Of course. Is that going to satisfy for long? No.

I never did get a clear picture on why Herman was fired. I read that his players did not like him because he was too tough on them. I like tough coaches myself. Not sure if he could recruit outside of Texas and we need to be able to recruit the south.

Zero reason we shouldn’t at least look at him.

Yes he did. He literally said with a lack of proven coaches available we might as well go after Kiffin. I’m not sure how you read that any other way.

Read it again. A lack means a deficiency. He didn’t say no proven coaches. His solution to the lack of proven coaches was to go with Kiffin. You can tell yourself he’s not a good coach but the majority of people in the football world disagree with you, not me

Kiffin burned far too many bridges on his way out for UT to consider him.
Not to mention it’s still a big question if he’s capable of coaching a top school without getting fired and/or screwing around

Well Idk but hes reached out to some UT donors about the job

He’s not terrible but he’s an 8-4 head coach and has been everywhere he’s been. But you go be another everyone jumped so I will too person since you can’t have a decent discussion.

Basilio just stated again that he knows for a fact because a booster called him. That Lane has reached out to some boosters to say he’s interested 🤔

When someone shows you who they are, believe them. Nothing about his record shows he’s an above average HC. Nothing about his character shows he’s even an average human being.
He needs a better record if he wants to be considered elite with his character flaws. Being the most popular on social media doesn’t win games. I’d take him as an OC. Anything above that and we’ll be doing this again in a couple years.

It’s all a crap shoot outside of a handful of coaches. I do agree with the evolution of the game we should look for an offensive minded coach or at least one willing to evolve. Pruitt was neither.
