Does Penn State come after Kiffin? Would he consider it if they did?

Most assume that he wants a bigger SEC job, if he wants to leave Ole Miss at all.

Would he jump to the BIG?

Not enough hot young blondes in the northeast, no chance.

I just can't picture Kiffin coaching Penn State.

I see Kiffin at Florida.


I think Penn State will look at Drinkwitz, Cignetti, and Clark Lea at Vanderbilt. Maybe even Brent Key at Georgia Tech.

I don't think Kiffin is much of a cold weather guy.

Kiffin fits in the SEC just like Kelly fits up north. If we can get Pedo U to hire BK and LSU nabs Kiffin, all would be right in the world.

Agreed.

If he did leave he’d be in the playoffs every year. He’d also take a lot of SEC recruits up north as well.

IMO, Penn Stare was extremely lucky to have a head coach of Franklin’s stature.

I believe the Penn State brand has suffered extreme damage. The term “Happy Valley” sounds ominous to me now.

I might be wrong and others will have different opinions and I can’t speak for Kiffin but I just don’t see him wanting to go to that place.

Everything about it seems dark to me.

I thought about those 2, but they’re at their alma mater’s, so that’d be hard to leave imo

he graduated from Penn
(yes I know that isn’t the same, but it is in the same state, and I’m guessing that Penn isn’t his dream job)

No idea what his dream job is.. maybe it’s A&M.. either way he is about to get paid

No way does he go to PSU. Ole Miss is the better job.

ummmm

Easier path to playoff
10 year contract
More NIL money
They are Top 7 in all time wins

I’m not saying he’s gonna go there, because it is cold and if you’re not from that part of the country, it’s even colder..

But Ole Miss is not a better job than Penn State..

Next year’s Ole Miss Schedule

Georgia
LSU
Mizzou
Auburn
Miss State

@ Texas
@ Oklahoma
@ Florida
@ Vanderbilt

Next Year Penn State

USC
Wisconsin

@ Michigan
@ Washington

Minnesota
Purdue
Rutgers
@ Maryland
@ Northwestern

It’s honestly a joke the schedules that they are playing..

Amazing how many people want a guy whose crowning achievement is a CUSA championship...

He wouldn’t go to Penn State. It’s in the middle nowhere. Not near Philly or Pburgh. I could see him taking the USC or UCLA job or Oregon based on the number of hot coeds out there

I see PSU going after Elko more because he is a Northeast guy

It the Adidas report is true, it isn’t Elko. The Aggies would drop Adidas before his flight landed.
