re: A couple thoughts on the current Kiffin chaos.

---

Houston is set to hire Alabama offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin to be its next football coach, according to USA Today's Dan Wolken.

i mean, to be fair, that situation certainly seemed like a done deal, especially as far as the houston athletic department was concerned. it wasnt until booster meddling at the 11th hour caused everything to fall apart and HY being strongarmed into promoting a locally popular, under-qualified assistant from within.

something about this sounds familiar.

now, maybe Ole Miss will also blow it, but, based on history, im fairly confident few programs trip over themselves quite like Arkansas.

im still hopeful that HY got himself a top candidate locked up after the Boca trip, but im def not confident.
