Kiffin is a good enough coach but the baggage and antics just weren’t worth it after 11 years of Miles and 4 years of Orgeron. Ole Miss feels like a shite show now wether he leaves or not

Yes Ole Miss or Auburn, I’m good with him at either one.

Kiffin has a very good offensive mind, but is guilty of taking to many unnecessary risks which puts more pressure on his defense. With a Top 5 defense you can afford to gamble. Ole Miss' defense is ranked 90th in the country and can't make up for the stupid offensive play calling. Outside of football, I think he acts like an immature 17 yr. old kid especially on social media

I believe we made the best hire possible.

Kiffin lacks the temperament currently to run a Bama, Auburn or LSU type program. You need a vision, strategy and people you can rely on. Just a good offense will win you games but not the big ones

I lived in Tennessee not far from Knoxville in Kiffin's year there and the fans were really afraid he was going to get them on probation. He's a good coach but unreliable and sleazy in my opinion.

People are upset that he just went 8-4 at ole miss. Think about how much he has raised the expectations there.

I do think he is more of an OC and less of a HC, but their problem is a lack of defense. And they lack that because they dont have a top level DC and top level talent. He could get those two things elsewhere

I think the Kiffin "drama" is overblown. Ole Miss is a hard place to win. Yeah Hugh Freeze did it, but he was buying hookers for recruits.

Just my opinion, but I don't think he goes to Auburn. At Ole Miss he has a .650 winning record which includes his first year there in 2020 in which he went 5-5. 2020 was not a normal season... Jimbo only lost 2 games in 2020.. But I think Ole Miss is a safer job for Kiffin right now, has his eyes on a bigger prize and don't want to hop around until that job becomes available.

We needed an adult in the room
Kiffin is not that
The ole miss schedule was a joke until they got to lsu
0-4 against the west to end season
That’s where ole miss is

Kiffin is a good enough coach


Not for the buzz he creates.
Dude is the CFB Kardashian. Has already had an NFL job, now 4/5 college positions and hasn't won anything at the P5 level.

The money and attention he gets for what he produces is pathetic. Very good OC, average HC.

Auburn isn’t in the same conversation as LSU and Bama.

They wanted him and he so desperately wanted to come here. But for the Jimbo pining, I thought LSU conducted a really good head coaching search and eventually, hire

Kiffin to A&M isn’t a thing.

If he doesn’t leave and continues to have some success, OM will go through this every year

He won’t stay at OM long. He’s not capable of committing long enough to do the hard work

He’s hell of a lot better than yalls garbage coach Jimbo. A&M is literally worse than Vandy this year…let that sink in

I think he's a good OC but that's it. He sucks as a head coach. But he is entertaining
