Title: I'll just leave this here ... Post by: PirateVOL on January 21, 2021, 07:45:58 EST White's brother hire the Lane Train at FAU ... :naughty: :loco:
Title: Re: I'll just leave this here ... Post by: Tnphil on January 21, 2021, 07:56:31 EST I could be wrong.....but I think Kiffin was already there when White came in as AD?
Of course Josh Heupel is there now at UCF and Scott Frost before him. Title: Re: I'll just leave this here ...

BTW, NOT promoting LK just having a bit of fun, though he with Steele as the DC would' be a bad comboOf course Josh Heupel is there now at UCF and Scott Frost before him. I can't get over the way he left. Title: Re: I'll just leave this here ...

If we take big swings and we miss, I mean we could do a lot worse. Title: Re: I'll just leave this here ... Post by: murfvol on January 21, 2021, 08:15:42 EST I don't know what Kiffin's ceiling is, but he'd be fun. It takes extreme focus each week to win a championship. Does he have it? I dunno, but he does have Xs and Os down to with the ability to assemble a staff.

I agreeThe true emotion he displayed after Wes Brown's pick 6 against Vandy is a great memory (Wes couldn't walk on that knee but he got the pick and somehow made it to the endzone) Turning Crompton (who was playing a lot like JG at the time) into a Heisman level QB against GA wasn't too shabby a memory either ...

VQ is going bonkers over the possibility of the Lane Train returningI do know that Ole Miss improved through the season this year With Steele as DC, maybe Lane would not be on my desired list How much are people going crazy? https://twitter.com/Lane_Kiffin/status/1352323972512292865?s=20 (https://twitter.com/Lane_Kiffin/status/1352323972512292865?s=20) Title: Re: I'll just leave this here ... Post by: VinnieVOL on January 21, 2021, 08:28:20 EST Remind me why Lane failed miserably at USC... I know they had santions, but we might too soon right?

One reason is to not let former tailbacks be the ADTitle: Re: I'll just leave this here ... Post by: Tnphil on January 21, 2021, 08:42:26 EST Lane Kiffin was 28-15 at USC and that was after the NCAA brought the hammer down on them.....Lane was hired in Jan at USC and the NCAA didn't come down with the sanctions until June of that year....They were reduced to 15 scholarships per year for 3 years, that's hard to overcome for anyone plus there were other stiff sanctions. I'd take 28-15 with those type sanctions right now...
I'd take Kiffin right now...today. The sucker can coach and recruit. But....I think we probably have a better chance hiring the Buffalo coach, Lance Leipold than we do hiring Kiffin. Which Leipold wouldn't be a bad hire at all. Title: Re: I'll just leave this here ...

Post by: volsboy on January 21, 2021, 09:06:10 EST I would take Kiffin over any unproven G5 coach. But Sarkisian was a lot better OC. Texas beat us to him though. It just depends on which coaches' skeletons in their closets bother you the most as to who you prefer.

Maybe he can bring one of those QB's with him. How can he have three good ones and we can't find one?Title: Re: I'll just leave this here ... Post by: BanditVol on January 21, 2021, 09:10:33 EST If the Lane Train wants a second chance, I wouldn't cry in my beer Even I agree. Don't see it happening though. Honestly he is probably better off staying at Ole Miss for now. Title: Re: I'll just leave this here ... Post by: volsboy on January 21, 2021, 09:13:35 EST How old is Spurrier...lol?

Yep, that tool Carroll left Lane holding the bag in a big way. I think maybe Karma caught up with him as well. Making a change like that and screwing over a university that gave you a big chance can haunt you in various ways. It caught up to him at USC and things just did not go well. Having said that, Kiffin would be just about the best coach we could possibly bring in. I would hope he has learned from his past and is smart enuff to stay put at OM for a while. I'd hate to see that happen to the Rebels, who I kinda root for in a small way. Title: Re: I'll just leave this here ...
