No he won't. Ole miss just gave him a 7 year $9 mil per yr contract. They can't afford any buyout on that

This Bama fan has never made that statement. I really didn’t like him when he was OC at Bama. I wouldn’t want him anywhere near Tuscaloosa.

Their non conference schedule is Mercer, ULM, and Georgia Tech. Should be another 7-8 win season.

I don't like the way Kiffin recruits. Small classes of high school recruits and the rest of the guys come from the portal. I don't think it's sustainable nor will it build a program for long-term success. Also, Kiffin needs to prioritize DL and LB.

You’re right. Pieces of trash like Freeze belong at Auburn.

Kiffin is essentially doing the same thing at Ole Miss that he did at Southern Cal. I guess he hasn't changed as much as some thought

Something happened, maybe the flirtation with auburn, that soured in Oxford. They were pretty competitive and then went in to a tailspin. They looked lost on the field and were hampered by field position all game. Stupid 4th down calls.

Kiffin is the poster child of hiring someone solely for their OC chops with zero regard for how skilled they are at literally every other facet of running a program or franchise.

I actually like Kiffen. I think his friendship with Leach was just what our rivalry needed. But I feel bad for their players, they deserved better.

How is Kiffin doing the same thing at USC when he had major scholarship limitations?

Arkansas fans better hope that your new DC will do a better job next season. Or else Sam will be on the hot seat at the end of next season.



What will it take to put drink on the hot seat? That dude sucks.

He’s worse than Odom was and getting worse each year as Odom’s players move out.

But you’re a year 5 dude who thinks that he’ll get the talents after the bowl win to get the talents then the talents will bring the talents to………etc…


Our new DC will do fine, your team will still lack any HC leadership because drink sucks. It’s time you realize he sucks and move on….

You're an absolute idiot.

Bill Snyder did that. He was a transfer guy. He coupled that with a cakewalk out of conference schedule.

It worked to a degree. Although, all those padded records would bite him in the arse usually, come the end of the season as far as bowl selections.

Tend to think he uses the portal because he can't front load the necessary talent. So, it's about sifting through the player base and finding what he can. That can work if the team can gel quickly. If not, it can be disastrous. But the portal has changed college football for the foreseeable future.

And it really helps teams that can use it effectively, and hurts those that think signing a great class is the end of it. Look at all the A&M guys in the portal.

This is the issue with our roster. Matt Luke left us with an absolutely dogshit roster. Kiffin(it seems) has done a good job with getting people who can contribute immediately and bringing in solid recruits to build for the future.

We need immediate contributors in key positions. Guys like Judkins don't exactly come around very often.....so good luck hoping for a dozen Judkins in a single class.


ETA: I do agree about the "team gelling" aspect though. Our defense in the 2021 season started as a liability(several transfers) but ended the season winning a few games covering for a struggling offense.

We seem to be looking at more multi-year eligibility transfers this go around than the last two years.

7-5, 8-4?
Would that do it?
