Will you ever hate another coach as much as you hate Kiffen?

Let's have a quick run down on all the shady things he has done in his short time as head coach of the vols...

-Called Coach Meyer a cheater and then gave a weak apology.

-Janzen Jackson

-Ripping off shirts and such

-said he fired someone he had no authority to fire.

-scholly to a convicted rapist.

- told a recruit he would be pumping gas if he went to USCe the night before signing day (which is a dead period and thus a violation, two birds with one stone so to speak)

- when calling out Urban, not only was he incorrect in his accusations, but it was a violation of rules to publicly accuse someone of commiting violations ( another two birds with one stone).

- he accused high school officials in Florida of not being trustworthy enough to send in his recruit's LOI without tampering with it.
-bragged to S.I. that he got limo drivers and secretaries fired when he first arrived

-basically got Janzen Jackson's dad a job at Miami(OH) and promised him DB coach in waiting to land his son, had them keep it all quiet and pretend to be committed to LSU until the papers were sent in to UT.

-he claimed to take the top recruiter from 3 or 4 schools, not just Bama

-texting a recruit with another recruits cellphone

I think the most shady thing he's done was that shite with Janzen Jackson.

Said that USC players all pump gas after college.

Said that people from Pahoke, FL are too poor for shoes and such.

Said he would sing Rocky Top in the swamp in 09. This one is actually funny though.

Said he took Bama's best recruiter from them and that they would close down Memphis or something like that.

Sent his head drunk (Coach O) to recruit Marlon Brown.

Paid Nukeese Richardon's auntie to come to TN for visit and probably got Nukeese some New Keys.

OK'd a future plumber joining the team (plunger boy).

Didn't he do something to GA too? Talked smack about something or another.
What did I miss other than being a douche?

His wife is kind of hot though. She must be a saint to deal with this jagoff. AAAANNNNNDDDD she has Gator ties.

I'm sure I'll think of some more later.

Kiffin's beef with Urban goes back to his days at USC and the Moody and Jamere Holland situation. They pretty much already hated each other before being rivals

It could happen, though unlikely.

But how in the hell did he get him hired at another school? Makes no sense.

Wasn't Kiffin with the Raiders when Moody transferred?

how did Lane get the job at USC? Certainly not on coaching ability or credentials. The coaching profession is big on giving favors to your buddies for future considerations.

Hey Vol, you can't imagine any type of scenario where one coach calls another and says hey, do me a "solid".

I just don't see the connection, but I've been wrong before.

FWIW I don't hate Kiffin. His hiring was the best thing to happen to bama since we hired saban.
