    He was phenomenal at USC when you take into account what he walked into and he was playing with something like 45 players. It was crazy.

    17-12 in the PAC 12 and fired 5 games into his fourth season isn't exactly blowing the doors off.

    I wouldn't say "we" reached out. Someone may have reached out to us.

    I missed you Bert!

    Kiffin coached a USC on probation in his first 2 years. And he still won 10 games. They were docked 30 scholarships over three years.

    He was fired on the tarmac after getting thumped by Arizona State. Levels of severity can be debated, but this is not how successful coaches end their tenure with a high level program.

    I get it. Stats lie. They always do. You need to go back and read about their sanctions. They were absolutely hammered and he couldn't sign full classes. Plus no one wanted to go there because of the probation. He did a really solid job if you take all things into consideration. A lot of USC people were pissed when he got fired.
    Anyway, I can't stand Lane but recognize he's done really well.

    I will just say if we fire CZA and Frost is our best option, a lot of people severely overestimated our potential coaching pool of interested coaches.

    I wouldn't mind seeing him back in football as an OC and I think that is what's really going on. If for some reason CZA is retained and makes changes, I could see Frost getting that interview.

    Kiffin won 10 games on probation. They announced the probation in June of the his first year. He finished 2nd, 1st, and then 3rd in the Pac. They fired him when he was 3-2. We have no idea how that season would have turned out. What we do know in the interim coach finished the season 10-4.

    Kiffin is a lot of things imo, but a bad HC is not one of them.
