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.
My decision to think Kiffin is a good coach was never based on anyone else’s opinion. It just happens to be the same opinion as the majority of people who have played, coached, or studied the game of football. Kiffin is an electric offensive minded coach and exactly what our dead program needs. You obviously don’t like him. Good for you
 
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.

I don’t see anyone lining up to want the job the way Pruitt was thrown under the bus.
 
I mean everyone was saying this in 2008, that worked out great didn’t it?
I don’t understand this need to back to Kiffin? It’s like a battered wife going back to her beating husband
 
I’m all for this. The guy would’ve had multiple sec championships and possible nc’s here by now. He made a huge mistake by leaving, but sh*t happens.

I didn’t like the Kiffin hire when we hired him. My mind changed by the end of that season. He gets the most out of the talent he has, especially at qb.

I don’t care anything about him. I’m going by his results. What in his results makes you think he will be anything more than an 8-4 coach here? If you don’t want more than that then that’s fine as that’s an improvement over Pruitt for sure. I agree we need an offensive coach but I don’t see Kiffin as a HR hire like some. He’s not a bad hire but he’s far from a slam dunk. I’ve been “studying football” for decades now and have played plenty. That literally means nothing as to whether Kiffin is a good coach or not and whether he would work out here or not.

Yeah, that’s tough. It’s not just Pruitt either. Look at what has happened the last decade. Dumpster fire at an administrative level is being kind. When you’re looking at whether or not to take a new job the most important thing is who you’ll be working for and whether or not you will work well together. We have a tough sell from that standpoint. Hopefully the good outweighs that to someone of good quality.

Year 1 was promising under Kiffin, that’s why. Blowing out Georgia, losing to the Gumps by 2 (who went on to win the NC that year), kept it within 10 against Florida, etc. Some of you are just too butthurt about him leaving and can’t let it go. He was showing very promising results in his one and only year.
