you assume that Kiffin could work his magic here, he might but i doubt he’d beat uga 3 times, or win the Orange bowl and ACC. Most likely with even a modicum of success he’d be gone out the door with the first good offer he got based on his history. Your right I don’t like the guy, I think he has Petrino-esque serious character issues that will rear up again sooner or later. Good coach as of now yes, great offensive mind yes, but he‘ll never come to GT anyway- I don’t think he digs asian coeds.1. Kiffin as a hire would be the biggest hire for us in my lifetime at least. that would be the first time we went home with the belle of the ball in forever. if he would do better than paul, either way is kind of a guess but there is no doubt that his resume at the p5 level is above johnson’s at the time of the hire considering johnson had not been at that level
2. the equal talent argument does not hold any weight whatsoever and in college has nothing to do with you as a coach. a major part of coaching is bringing in talent and kiffin is better at that for some reason. it can’t possibly be the option though as we have had lengthy discussions in other threads about how the option doesn’t effect recruiting. kiffin is just a better recruiter apparently
3. running one of the top offenses in the country at bama (including one winning a championship)to coaching at fau and having the best three year stretch in school history after the school won 3 games for 3 straight years, then earning a job at ole miss where he has been great is the furthest thing from falling upwards.
if you dislike kiffin that is fine because he seems like an ******* occasionally, but the guy is a tremendous football coach. there is no way he’s coming here as we are not fishing in that same pond anyway but if you think he’s a bad coach then you’re kidding yourself
