I want to believe. Most of these articles are just assumptions and none seem to say what Kiffin is 100% going to do.

If it's Sumrall, look, it's probably Billy 2.0, I won't lie this time. But at least he has SEC coordinator experience, he obviously won't be a stubborn a-hole who refuses to hand over the reins on offense, did the whole "step up" job thing, and was never fired for being bad at his job, like Billy was at Clemson.

It's cope, but it's all I got.

it's Tennessee's offense more or less, and according to them it's gotten worse sense he left. Give him elite NIL and we're making waves.


That’s what I’ve been saying. Dude took over one of the worst teams in the FBS and has a top 5 offense at USF. He’s a proven offensive mind at a 1/5 of the cost of Kiffin.

Apparently it's being widely reported on TOS that Stricklin is ignoring phones calls from the BIGGEST Money boosters and is negotiating with Summral independently. WTF fire his **** now

Can't imagine Stricklin doing that. He'd get no funding for football and would be career suicide.

No fkn way


Career suicide

You dont fire a HC due to pressure from the boosters then go rogue on the hire of the next HC

Exactly. Negotiating on his own? With whose money?
