Except being the OC on a National Championship Team?

Let's look at his career:

*He was fired for cause with the Raiders.
* Left Tennessee in the middle of the night to take his "dream job" with Southern Cal after one season.
*Left on the tarmac after three underwhelming seasons at Southern Cal.
* Landed a rehab job as OC at Bama where seemed to flourish, only to be told to leave by Saban due reported inappropriate behavior with a boosters wife.
* Admittedly, he has Ole Miss on it's best three year stretch ever, but as a head coach he has never even won a division title.

This dude pursues high profile hires and is followed by controversy.

He was fired the week before the national championship game in 2016. That takes skill.

Me either.

Lane Kiffin, however, won two conference championships as a head coach. Sure, it was FAU. But if it was so easy, why don't more coaches have that on their resumés?

OP seems like a troll and not really football-smart enough to be a Bama fan. Or he could be one of those inbred fans our rivals talk about.

He’s won precisely the same number of championships as DeBoer had when we was hired by Bama.

They’re still tied, too.

You realize it is possible for a coach to improve right?

Well, one thing Kiffin is damn sure about to win is a spectacular contract.

Well, this is blatantly false.

Power conference championships:

DeBoer - 1
Kiffin - 0

More threads from Gumps on Kiffin.

Idk if he comes to LSU, but y’all sure are eating up bandwidth here about him trying to convince no one who asked how bad a coach you think he is.

Clearly not enough for people to spell his name correctly.

We know how good of a coach he is. We also know his propensity to light every thing on fire because he can’t help himself.

What had Bryant ever won before he got to Alabama?

What had Jimmy Johnson ever won before he got to Miami?

What had Saban ever won before he got to LSU?

What had Meyer ever won before he got to Florida?

What had Bowden ever won before he got to Florida State?

What had Spurrier ever won before he got to Florida?

Kiffin took over right as USC got hammered by the NCAA and was hit with “lack of institutional control,” a two-year postseason ban, and 30 lost scholarships over three years, all tied to violations from the Pete Carroll era. Kiffin walked straight into one of the harshest sanction periods in college football history.

*but keep bring it up.
