What do you think of Lane Kiffin? He was an assistant at USC -a successful one- then spent a brief but tumultuous stint in Oakland, rinse and repeat in Tennessee, and now he lands the USC job? Has this guy proven anything? Besides that he’s obnoxious and inflammatory? He's certainly not a proven head coach. I guess USC learned nothing from Notre Dame and the Charlie Weis experiment.
Also, and maybe I was just never paying attention until now, but is it depressing how much of a business coaching has become at the college level? I don’t know much about recruiting, but I assume most coaches don’t mention that they’ll leave their current programs if and when they’re offered more money for a gig with a more prestigious institution when they’re sitting on the couches of 17 year-old recruits and surrounded by their family? In fact, they’re probably touting other things: conferences, academics, the pretty girls at University of X, their offensive system or their defensive scheme, and the notion that they help kids become men.
