yeah, like Barkley.

Barkley started as a true freshman w/o Kiffin there.

And then never progressed and finally regressed ala Ron Pawlus.

Kiffin made Barkley worse and turned the best wide receiver in the country into a pile of after-thought dung.

Plus he literally started two QBs to start the year and alternated them which pissed off the entire team.

Did anyone watch USC's offense this year????

Before Coach O took over and gave the keys to Clay Helton?

Clay Helton is who Bama should have gone after. He transformed the Kiffin nightmare.

An informed post. Thank Gawd.

So, in your opinion, UA's new QB's are going to struggle during his tenure?

Some of you should post less or try not to act like you actually have a clue about CFB when you post.

2009 Before Kiffin arrived
NAME CMP ATT YDS CMP% YDS/A TD INT RAT
Matt Barkley 211 352 2735 59.9 7.77 15 14 131.3

2010
NAME CMP ATT YDS CMP% YDS/A TD INT RAT
Matt Barkley 236 377 2791 62.6 7.40 26 12 141.2

2011
NAME CMP ATT YDS CMP% YDS/A TD INT RAT
Matt Barkley 308 446 3528 69.1 7.91 39 7 161.2

2012

Again do not post your opinion as fact.

2010
NAME REC YDS AVG LONG TD
Robert Woods 65 792 12.2 61 6

2011
Robert Woods 111 1292 11.6 82 15
Marqise Lee 73 1143 15.7 59 11

2012
Marqise Lee 118 1721 14.6 83 14
Robert Woods 76 846 11.1 41 11

Woods had an ankle injury that lingered all during the 2012 season and even then his production was up from his first year under Kiffin.

Lets also remember Kiffin before the 1st game as HC at USC was hit with 30 less scholarships over 3 years. And the 2010 season played with only 71 on scholarship. So I would think going into year 4 it might take effect.
