Turns out that fricking a prominent booster’s wife isn’t a good idea. Especially when they are on the committee that approves hires

Probably smashed booster's daughter just after her 18th birthday.

Kiffin's making $9-10 million a year right now. I don't think he's having to cope with any regret.

Should be "being a prominent booster's wife and fricking Kiffin isn't a good idea".

I feel like this kind of stuff starts as message board cope for why their favorite hire won't happen. It is like the Lost Cause narrative. "Actually, everyone wanted him but we were undermined by this selfish shadowy cabal!"

The simple answer is forcing Alabama's hand after the 2016 Peach Bowl due to some sort of detrimental behavior (plenty of rumors about what that was) and likely costing that team a national title has black-balled Kiffin. Frankly, I believe Ole Miss is Kiffin's water level. I do not think he would do well at a bigger program because there would be more criticism about his bizarre game management decisions.
