re: Dear rest of SEC, you too can shop for former talent cut by NFL

Remember when the LSU fanbase was holier than thou about Charles Bediako leaving the G-league for Bama. He was a threat to the sanctity of college athletics.

But I digress, the juice isn't worth the squeeze on a tight end that can't make an NFL 53 man roster. LSU is racing into the lead for public enemy #1. The national media is going to be relentless with the first loss (likely @ Ole Miss), and the house of cards will come crashing down with the second (A week later vs A&M). It will take Kiffin's best coaching job of his career to keep the ship straight when it happens. The emotional intelligence of the fanbase in general is on par with with a rabid coyote. Kiffin doesn't have the personality to not chirp back at the native detractors which will only infuriate them more. If you push all your chips to the middle and don't win the hand, they will turn on the program. The honeymoon will be over before October, and he exhausted every greasy resource to welcome Mcneese State to town clinging to a top 25 spot with a 2-2 record.

On paper it's a match made in heaven. Good offensive coach in a state that grows skill players on trees, and an administration with the moral fiber of an african warlord willing to go into debt to fund the payroll. In practice, Kiffin and the fanbase are not going to be compatible. It will be quite the spectacle.
