If I had to guess, I'd guess that Kiffin will have a very quiet, very business-like role on the team. He'll be responsible for calling plays and getting the quarterback ready to go.

In the mean time, he's being groomed by Saban to become a real head coach. You have to imagine that after failing in Oakland, failing at Tennessee, and failing at USC that he's questioning his own ability to lead a football program.

He nows has the chance to learn from the best in the business. Saban isn't going to let a coach ruin his program, and I seriously doubt Kiffin is going to sign up to coach under Nick Saban believing that he'll be able to take over aspects of the program.

I'd like to believe all that, it's a great sentiment. I staunchly oppose his hiring, and consider him wearing Crimson a horrible look for The U of A. But, whatever. I guess it could be fun. Everybody hates us anyway.

Maybe Saban is arrogant enough to believe that he's good enough to make Kiffin into a good coach when no one else could. I hope he believes this.

Kiffin isn't a bad coach, just doesn't seem to respond very well to adversity...well I guess that does make him a bad coach.
