Majors "deserted" Pitt for Tennessee after Dorset won them the Natty. Then went back to Pitt after he was fired here.
Doug Dickey "deserted" coaching Tennessee for his alma mater, Florida without the same success. He then returned to Tennessee and was Athletic Director over the most successful VOLS run in modern history to the Natty.
Lane Kiffin's dream job always was USC. And he told everyone that. When it came open, they offered and he took it.
Guys, it ain't desertion.
It's BUSINESS.
Yeah but you'd do the same thing if you would have been in his shoes. If I were coaching the NE Patriots and UT called I would be out of Foxboro before the echo of my scream faded.
I personally can't comprehend how people can consider Lane Kiffin a better coach than Les Miles, or Sumlin for that matter. I think people are enamored with his attitude and is blinded from his actual accomplishments. He's had 2 good seasons as a head coach. His year at UT and this year at FAU. And those seasons are bouyed by the staff he has. Had a great staff under him at UT, and this year Kendall Briles is really the key to that offense. Kiffin is just the face. Yes, he had sanctions at USC, but even given the players he had on those teams he still under-performed. The guy is a troll, and I think he's trolling UT's fan base now.
Briles is running a Kiffin designed offense.
Lane Kiffins FAU is one of college footballs most entertaining teams - SBNation.com
He's the most capable offensive coach. He needs a defensive coordinator.
