Re: Lane Kiffin Friend or Foe ?

I am not a big College football guy, but living close to Gainsville, FL can't help knowing all about the Gators. And after Lane Kiffin's brief but controversial stay in the SEC, I can't help but notice him. All, I know is he left Oakland on bad terms(probably more Al Davis than him),And now he shafted Tennessee.

What does everybody think about Lane Kiffin? I personally think he's a man who lacks class,and has no loyalty. And how did he turn a 7-6 Season at Tennessee into one of the best gigs in College football? I know you get his dad Monte(a defensive whiz) and some great recruiters. But ,Come on?

I think Kiffin's personality rubs some people the wrong way but I don't think he's a bad guy. I believe him when he said this was the only job he would have left Tennessee for. It was a no brainer for him. It's hard to pass up the USC job especially when he worked there for 6 years under Carroll. Now I don't think Kiffin gets the job if Sarkisian was still there but I'm sure the AD wanted someone who was familiar with SC and how things run there.

I think he's a good recruiter and can evaluate talent pretty well. Remember he was against drafting JaMarcus Russell
