Why do people pretend that Kiffin is a good head coach?

He can coach an offense. That’s it.

He's like Leach except he never wins the games he shouldn't.

He would be a pretty decent coach if he'd stop being deathly afraid of punting every now and then.

How many games has he lost in the last 2 years simply by going full ruhtard with 4th down decisions?

Not sure if this is supposed to support or refute OP's premise.

I think the three ten win seasons in the last six, at rebuild jobs, pretty well refutes it.

Is that the level of "good" coach? Winning the most competitive and talented division in college football? Go troll the tigerrant.

Will be interesting to see how blowing up the dynamics of your team and the locker room impacts the QB position
This could be the competition he wants in the room or it could backfire and cost him with future recruits and the portal

Since OP provided no info or insight into why people "pretend" to think that Kiffin is good - figured a little actual information might be useful

He's winning it next year with his new 3 Qb formation. Haven't you been paying attention?

I’ve provided plenty of info. He had an NFL QB and did nothing.

He can also recruit the portal well, even at Ole Miss.

That said, he is a weak high school recruiter, and absolutely sucks at fielding a decent defense and game day decision making. Unless he improves he is a better than average coach with a very limited ceiling. Which is better than anything Ole Miss has had without a Manning QB.

Losing 20 players to the portal and signing 10 is not using the portal well. The portal rankings should be net rankings that subtract the losses.

We’ve absolutely upgraded through the portal, and we are still going to add probably 15 more guys.

Love when other team fans try and dunk on portal attrition when portal season is never ending. This cycle will last into spring ball and even summer and fall camp. Rosters aren’t set in stone just because we’ve had one signing day and one portal window.
