Is he poaching staff from coaches who mentored him earlier in his career?

Saban is part of the reason Kiffin even has a job as a head coach right now. Dude was damaged goods when Saban hired him.


That Saban "mentored" Kiffin is a laughable assertion. Kiffin had been a head coach in the NFL, as well at two different P5 schools prior to going to Alabama.

Kiffin did more for Saban than Saban did for Kiffin, and that's a fact. Kiffin's only problem is that he's an attention whore. But don't make it sound like he is where he is today because he sat at Lord Saban's feet for a couple of years.

Nope, he's where he is because of his Daddy.

Which makes him a perfect fit

First of all, Kiffen was fired and left on the tarmac at USC.

After that point, after he was fired, no one wanted Freshwater, and Saban was laughed at for hiring him, and that's a fact. He was able to reproove himself working under Saban and yeah it was a mutually beneficial working relationship, but don't pretend like him working for Saban wasn't a huge benefit to Kiffin's career for the foreseeable future.
