But as an impartial outside observer, I can see that USC got exactly what they wanted. They got a splashy hire that everyone is talking about.
If he was a sucky coach, they wouldn't be rioting in Tennessee, crying about him leaving

Lane Kiffin is a failure.
Not really. Only a head coach for two years. One was with the Raiders, trainwreck, and the other was only the first year at Tennessee.
Exactly, he has failed.
Oh, and was he the one who made that bone-headed call on 4th and 2 against Texas? Or did Carroll take responsibility for that?
lol
In his first year at Tennseee he almost beat the national champion Alabama
As far as I'm concerned, Kiffin exceeded expectations at Tennessee.
Plus, he proved he can recruit, illegally and legally. He will fit right in at USC just like Carroll did.
Tenn. Recruting Class was ranked #35 in 07.
Kiffin's group was ranked #15 in 08 and #6 in 09.
College football is all about recruiting.
Oh really? Is that why a guy like Ron Zook is so successful as a coach?

No, but it's why a guy like Lloyd Carr can do well without being the best playcaller on the field. In football the teams with the best athletes are the teams that win the most games (profound, I know). Recruiting is how those teams get the best athletes.

Head coaches build programs---which means lasting success, bowl wins, and a strong recruitment network. He built nothing. In fact, he probably f**ked Tennessee for years with his shadiness. So he failed.
7-6, lol
Of course he did thats why they had a riot and wouldn't let him leave right? Yeah people always want to keep failures. Michigan and Notre Dame would loved to have finished 7-6.

lol, Willis, you know me too well my friend, you know me too well...
This college football offseason has just been such a roller coaster of emotions for me. First, ecstatic at Pete Carroll going to Seattle, then anger/frustration at hiring of Lane Kiffin, then I hear Monte's coming for the ride, and rumor still is that they might go after UCLA's very own Chow...and now Dr. Buss is paying for Kiffin's debts like Lane's his f**king son?
The f**k man...the f**k...f**k College Football...

lol Yeah as a cal fan I was hella happy when Carrol went to Seattle. I'm not really worried about kiffin himself, moreso his coaching staff will be so good it'll offset his mediocrity as a coach. Monte and Chow would be a ridiculous staff but hopefully NCAA will sanction the s**t out of them and Chow won't go there. Lane has always struck me as a little b*****d who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth or whatever and the guy gets everywhere and gets good staffs just because of who his dad was and who he's worked for, not his own coaching ability.

His coaching history isn't exactly amazing, but regardless, you have to respect the man as a great college recruiter...dude just flat out knows how to recruit kids (whether he's using school girls boobies to aid him or not only adds to his creativity!) and thats what college ball is all about. Recruit the best kids and put them in a scheme where they can succeed. Lane's going to be getting kids from all over the nation, not just the local kids. Im sure several of his Vols recruits are coming to SC with him too. God damn this guy. God damn this program. God damn them all.
Us Pac-10 fans just got the bluest balls from all of this...just when I thought Carroll was gone and the regime was over and was about to nut all over these Trojan condoms, BOOM, they strike...and strike hard...now I gotta keep it all in me for lord knows how many more years...
I cant do this man...I just cant, its not like I ever expected much outta my Bruins fball squad, but with our bball squad in the s**tter this year, I was thinking maybe the fball program would rise and provide some optimism...
Guess not...
