Lane Kiffin (HC Ole/Young Miss & Twitter Troll King)

[jlb1705]

Just so this is clear, he got a longevity bonus for staying at Tennessee for LESS TIME than his son lasted with the Raiders.

It's too bad these guys weren't around in the '90s. They would've shown up to the Citrus Bowl in sandals instead of illegal cleats and wouldn't have recovered that goddamn fumble by Clint Stoerner in '98.

I actually disagree with this, it is Tennessee's fault for being stupid enough to put a "longevity' bonus in a contract for someone after one year, if he doesn't deserve the money then don't put it in the contract...

Agreed. If they had been thinking, they'd have had that bonus kick in on the day after NLOID in February.

If I were a Tennessee fan (I actually got shivers just typing that), I would have serious doubts about AD Mike Hamilton right now. Hiring Kiffin was a mistake, and allowing such a clause in Kiffin Sr's contract is another red flag.

And in his current coaching search, he just got rejected by the coach at Duke!

I hate Jay Mariotti less now.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend...or, at least, less of a hate-worthy dick.

As the UT fans said upon opening Kiffin's departing gift to them:

"Life is laak ah box uh chocolates...wa-aiit a dang minute! This isn't chocolate!!! "

Frankly, I'm amazed that Kiffin finds the USC job so attractive when others seem to be running away from it and then I have to wonder what the Duke coach sees about the Knoxville job that causes him to run away. Something is rotten in two Denmarks me thinks.

Apparently, Kiffin has one positive attribute: The ability to be (rotten) in two places at once.

Yeah, or a contract signed in a substance other than ink, involving the bartering of some sort of spiritual essence.

(<--Boy, did this poor guy get hosed! Who knew Kiffie was bluffing about the whole having a soul thing?)

I'll believe that when an earthquake simultaneously hits Knoxville and LA. Because, you know, that's what happens when those sorts of deals occur.

did the devil make a pact with USC AND UT? What's the word from Pat Robertson. I can believe USC would make a deal, but Tennessee? Why that's smack dab in the middle of the Bible belt. Holy snake handler!

[Dryden]

Yellow uniform? Is that verbatim? GTFO!

 

[Muck]

I motion that the thread title be changed to include Lane "change" Kiffin's nickname.

I'm not surprised at all. Kiffin isn't very bright.

You listen to Jim Rome? My apologies

Yellow uniform? Is that verbatim? GTFO!

Yeah if we thought Tennessee fans were going crazy now, if any of them heard this he might not be able to ever go back to the state.

Yellow?

He's not. He is the coaching version of Ryan Leaf.
