kiffin to FAU

An NCAA infractions committee panel on Wednesday confirmed that Briles and another Baylor assistant, wide receiver coach Tate Wallis, had committed recruiting infractions by exceeding the number of allowed evaluations with two prospects and having impermissible contact with a prospect. The panel upheld Baylor's self-imposed penalties on Briles and added only a $5,000 fine, ensuring he could seek employment without any recruiting or coaching restrictions.

FAU checked with the NCAA and Baylor and found no issues, a source told ESPN's Brett McMurphy.

In fact, Baylor officials told FAU it had "no information that would disqualify Briles from [continuing to work] at Baylor," a source told McMurphy...

My guess is that FAU will be a lot better than 3-9 next season.
If they run the Briles system then I'll take year three...no playbook, no huddle. Kirby Freeman couldn't figure it out in year one and lost the starting job to RGIII. Griffin figured it out in year three. The won't have Phil Montgomery there to help implement the system, he's at Tulsa now and doing quite well.

Should be a good opportunity for Kiffin to prove himself after blowing opportunities at the Raiders, UT, and USC.
