You fuchers acting like UF is in a position to turn it's nose up at Lane Kiffen is silly. Are you forgetting our last 3 coaches were Will Muschamp, Butters and Mullen? Kiffen takes shyts that know more about scoring points than those 3 combined. Outside of Meyer, Saban, Riley and Dabo (0% chance we get any of those) who else would make a bigger splash then Kiffen right now? Kiffen with Durkin would recruit with uga and what we need first and foremost is someone to come restock the talent.
Sure it's probably 50-50 chance Lane would get fired in 3 or 4 years for fuching a co-ed but we'd be loaded on both sides of the ball. There's a reason Kiffen was scooped up so fast from FAU while the other group of 5 coaches some of you keep fawning over weren't. His offensive philosophy is the closest to SOS's as anyone in the game today and he's a shyt talking smart ass to boot.
Him with Durkin is first on my list with probably Cristobal 2nd. If UF can't land either of those I'd rather go get a young offensive coordinator from the NFL than a group of 5 guy.
There’s a large anti-Kiffin bias on this board well earned by virtue of the ridiculous immaturity he displayed while at Tennessee and by the failure at USC. The fact is, he’s one of the brightest offensive minds in the game and he can recruit, both qualities we yearn for in spates. Where he’s failed thus far at Ole Miss is in fielding a competent defense. That’s going to be a hard sell given what we’ve been through of late.
I think what we’re looking for is someone with proven head coaching experience, someone without a chicken neck, someone with an explosive offense and someone with some degree of recruiting charisma. Kiffin fills that bill.
Whoever it turns out to be, let the chips fall. If it points to Kiffin, I personally don’t mind. He’s a relatively safe pick. Everyone deserves a chance at redemption. Just win, baby.
