Lane kiffin is burning bridges in Orlando. No way coach wells lets him recruit another player from Dr Phillips. I get dropping a kid but to not contact him and make this kid go through all the hoops just to learn two weeks before signing day he no longer has a scholarship is ridiculous. Dr Phillips puts out tons of talent. Not good for a small school like FAU.

Yet another perfect illustration of why #NeverKiffen.

Well what Mullen and them have pulled is even worse. Telling kids they actually recruited to complete their stuff to enroll early and then yanking the offer a few weeks out because they ran out of space and then bringing up the greyshirt mess after the kid was basically promised the spot.

Anyone's first mistake is listening to Kiffin period. Only reason he survived at Bama is Saban kept his thumb on him. Soon as he's gone, in trouble. Guess he and Rapeis Winston need full time babysitters.

Kiffin is a prime example of how one can have his head so far up his azz, that how to win through preparation is a wild guess due to the extensive darkness.

So after 3 weeks at FAU Kiffin is pulling his 2 and 3 star recruit's offers because he's got 4 star players ready to come to FAU.

And yet......

After 3 years.....

It's a damn shame when places like FAU, Eastern Kentucky and Western Kentucky are out of scholarships and we can't give them away with a free bag of chips.

Not necessarily...may be just different style of player sought. Could still be 2 & 3 star players...just different ones...

This happens all the time. Kiffin gets the headline because he's a grade A dbag.

Exactly! Harbaugh got nailed for it last recruiting season. Saban and Meyer do it. When a school isn't interested any more, they do what Kiffin did or they give a long silent treatment until the kid gets the picture and just decommits.

Not taking calls and giving "a long silent treatment" is gutless, unprofessional, and exactly what Kiffin is all about. In life and work you sometimes have difficult or unpleasant conversations. A mature, experienced person doesn't run away from them but knocks them out purposefully. Talking to a recruit shouldn't be a big deal for a grown man, and avoiding his calls is just cowardly. I bet his new administration just loves the guy.

This could be great for us. Maybe we can snipe some of their recruits. Do they even have any 3*?
