    Lane Kiffin could have signed many, but only wanted "elite" talent...

    I don't know where to start making fun of this post.

    Stalked up talent is perfect way to describe Ole Miss recruiting.**

    Here's the thing no one is talking about. When Kiffin was recruiting well he had one common denominator. That was Ed Orgeron on his staff at both Tennessee and USC. I have a feeling that Coach O was the mastermind as far as recruiting goes.

    Yup.

    Also, this entitlement they have, not only that they deserve SEC ready players, but they'll get 'em, and developing talent is some how beneath them is ****ing hilarious.

    Literally only a handful of programs in the country can say that, and even they need developmental players for depth, but no...not OM....they're just a **** hair away from relevancy, just like God intended.**

    Even ole Not-a-Fan is touting this class hard as a mere "transition class", and he's calling his shot that next year's class will be top 10 to top 5...because yeah, LK has definitely shown that to be in his wheelhouse...

    They've always had that entitlement. Before I started following football I thought they were the equivalent of an 8-3 team every year on the cusp of a few things going right and being in the National Title hunt. Then I did some research and I was shocked to see that Archie had more INT's than TD passes.

    The thing about development is even Alabama develops their players to an extent. Right now from the outside looking in Ole Miss seems very unstable.

    So... are they not going to field a team if they can't sign elite players?

    Coaches are recruiting masterfully against them because the idiots hired a pariah in Durkin. Just dum-dums.

    How could any recruit turn down this vibrant personality?*

    It's not going to work. Kiffin is a coordinator. Not a head coach. He's an introvert like Norv Turner

    I guess that's supposed to be the reason they land that top 10 class out of the blue next season.

    Bet the guys he did sign like being told they are a transition class and ones in the future will be better. Really should make them feel good about their decision.

    He keeps referencing "NFL ROSTER".....and going out to get transfers etc. Is that Ole Miss code for "free agency" and spend money.

    Why didn't he signned more. This means you are going to have a gap in total numbers on team. I just think he is not a recruiter.

    Kiffin has a terrible personality. Seems so disinterested and awkward.

    It's definitely interesting to watch.

    If I were an OM fan I would be extremely worried through this offseason and praying the product pans out. His twitter personality dwarfs his real personality. Dudes a fat slob.

    For realistic fans, next year is probably expected to be similar to the past couple of years they've had.

    But year 2 will heat up significantly if he swings and misses as bad as he did this year and pulls this type of excuse giving after next year's recruiting cycle. We thought Moorhead was in over his head. He will be forced to cheat next year out of desperation. Not saying anyone will have to twist his arm or anything though.

    This.

    Say what you want about Freeze, but he was a southern evangelist. Kiffin is nothing of the sort.

    This personality won't play in living rooms.

    As a long time USC fan it will probably only get worse.
