    Not for or against (yet), but I love it when people swing for the fences instead of the same ole topics. Good job.

    While I think Mullen is really an OC posing as a HC ... I'd have to say Kiffin would be in that same mold too.

    He's like a dumb blonde. You take her out on a couple dates and everything goes well. She's super hot and you're into her. However, she either ends up leaving you for a hotter guy, or you're forced to dump her after she makes a fool of herself in front of your family at Thanksgiving...
    He took over a 5-7 Tenn team that was getting worse. He got them to a bowl. He took over USC under scholarship reductions. Of course things got worse- they lost 10 scholarships per year. What has USC done since he left?

    He's a good coach.

    I would get arrested for assault for running on the field and beating the Sh!! out of Joey Freshwater. He can't help but be cute calling plays and it bites him in the ass at least once a game.

    At least he tries and looks like he gives a damn whether or not they win

    One other thing. If everyone thinks marathons, European vacations, and yeezy's are distractions ... Kiffen will most likely bring a lot more highly dramatic distractions to the table.

    Of course I'm not sure who the most likely candidates are we could get either.

    He drove me crazy Saturday with all the lateral passes against Ole Miss. Worst game plan possible against their D.

    Bonner confirmed that UF has officially offered him the job. IMO he'd be dumb not to take it.

    Says the person who called him a idiot just 72 hours ago for throwing 9 passes in a row.

    Fun conversation, but Kiffin will NEVER be coach here. He'd never get offered and if he did, he wouldn't take it for $4 million a year. He knows he's about to get a shot somewhere he'd be a better fit.

    I agree that he's a good coach. I wouldn't mind him an offensive coordinator. But he's shown with the Raiders, the Vols, and the Trojans, that he cannot sustain a winning program. Don't forget this is the same coach that ran his kicker out to try a 76 yard field goal. He's 3-10 against Top 25 opponents.

    Exactly. Ole miss d is built on speed you attack them up the gut. If shump ran like he did out of the I Saturday night the rest of the year that would be my game plan against ole miss.

    Well ... he's in Tuscaloosa, which is not exactly a large city. Of course, Alabama is a bit more prestigious than we are. But one never knows.

    Lol. I know you have seen all the pictures and Gif's of him looking lost on the sidelines over the years. We just get so caught in our maroon bubble that we lose perspective. Go read some of USC boards when he was floundering and how they say just the opposite of this post.

    This^^^^^

    Hiring that fool would be the most polarizing coaching hire in school history. It would also be the smartest coaching hire in the last half century or the most foolishly stupid coaching hire in the last half century. I get swinging for the fence, but he's proven nothing and so I think it would be the latter. And as far as winning as OC at ]ALABAMA with Saban as head coach? What one eyed, castrated spider monkey couldn't do that?

    Somebody mentioned he'd win then leave in a year....but it's probably more like lose, knock up a coed, and then leave after a year.

    I would rather have Orgeron, anyway. He's a great recruiter, the players love him, and he would personally want to beat Ole Miss for the way they treated him.

    If you notice- I haven't said I'd like him to be our HC

    I'm probably the only USC fan here. Kiffin is TERRIBLE.

    I like Fedora. I also have been impressed with Jay Hopson too. The way he stepped in at USM with Monken's players and kept it going. I know he's an om guy but after the NCAA leaves a crater in Oxford no coach with a future is going to touch that job.
