I may get laughed at, but oh well. I go to a men's recovery home and do a Bible study every 2 weeks, take turns with my pastor, and have for about 3 years now. I go in the morning after work on my day, tomorrow actually, and when you do what you can to try and help someone better themselves, then see them change for the better, feels better to me than catching a huge bass. It doesn't even have to be church related, anybody trying to help others is awesome. It's hard some mornings after working 12 hours, but when those guys talk to me and thank me for helping and coming, it drives me to do more. Good for you, and kiffin.

Anybody who would laugh at you for helping others is seriously deranged. Keep up the good work. ♥

Kiffin did an interview with Tony Basilio on October 30, 2017, shortly before Butch Jones was even fired, where he was lobbying for the job. It won't ever happen, and I'm not saying it should, but you are out of your mind if you don't think Kiffin would accept, if offered.

He seems pretty happy where he’s at. I doubt he wants a job where he’ll have to produce from day one or be fired

The real sign he's maturing is never, ever letting his dad coach defense against modern college offenses

I believe Kiffin is angling with his comments to get back to Knoxville but no way Fulmer hires him. He wouldn't be a good fit.

Tennessee needs to go the FCS route and hire a lower level coach that is winning or competing for National Championships at the FCS level. Preferable one in the South. What about the Appalachian State coach? (I know they are FBS now but they are still winning and winning big).

Appy States coach is now at Louisvile. Would be worth keeping an eye on him. I would also watch NDSU coach now at Kansas State. beat Mississippi State.

I know many feel differently but if Kiffin wanted to coach here and no other solid options wanted the job (Pruitt was not a solid option when he was hired-he was simply a potentially good hire), then I would hesitantly welcome him back. We’re already the punchline to any college football-related joke, so it can’t get much worse - especially if we go 1-11.


I wouldn’t mind replacing Pruitt with Kiffin and keeping mostly everyone else. I feel like Kiffin and Chaney’s offensive philosophies would work together very well. And we’d finally have a guy who knows how to coach up QB’s (which we’ve lacked for years).

Outside the UCLA and VT games, they did the first time around

Or he’s finally realized he’s on a gravy train with little to no expectations and can get every penny for doing next to nothing

This. I'd be hesitant to state with certainty that he's grown up.

He's at a stage in his career where he's realized he's already blown a couple huge opportunities, but he's still able to make $1m/year and unless he gets in some off-field trouble (which is certainly possible) or goes 2-10, he won't be fired. All while living in Boca. It isn't a bad spot, although it is by far the least glamorous job he's had in a while.

I don’t know what his buyout money was from USC, but $950K in Boca isn’t that much comparatively speaking .

I think he realizes he screwed up a good thing personally.

Oh yeah he knows how big a job he had here and i think he mow that is older wishes he wouldnt have ran around on Layla. At the time he enjoyed the younger women using his fame but at a middle age they dont look like Layla. So yeah i think there are a handful of things he might do differently if he could go back in time.

He could have turned his HC record around
He had the tools and players
And let’s not forget who the OC could have been. He’s doing well now at Kentucky
