Lane Kiffin (2017)
Lane Kiffin (2025)
Bill Freider (1989)
Did I miss anyone?
Like the old saying goes, if you get fired once maybe your boss is just an a-hole. If you get fired twice, you’re probably the a-hole
ETA:
Frieder definitely qualifies although Bo was also a known a-hole. Will Wade did nothing wrong. Chris Beard committed an actual crime. Not the same thing.

This is like someone putting in their two week's notice and the boss telling them to just go home.
Then telling everyone he fired the employee.

Worked out pretty good for Michigan. How did Freda’s career turn out?

What is the good reason a boss would do that rather than keeping them around for the next 2 weeks?

In that case I bet Ole Miss is super excited that he's gone

I don’t know if that list is accurate, not that it matters. But if you’re trying to suggest that Lane Kiffin has negative personality traits,I think the choir you seem to be preaching to is relatively large.

In the sales world, it happens a lot to protect a company from their clients being poached.
Ole Miss seemed to be worried that he'd be poaching their players, based on their boards.

Head coaching jobs Nick Saban told Lane Kiffin he would always regret if he didn't take it now...

so what?

Updated OP to include Frieder which is the only similar situation. Wade was forced out by NCAA and Beard committed a crime

Probably should have told Locksley to move along. Not sure he put in all that much work to prepare for Venable's defense. I think he knew every play that was coming.
