Kiffin was given the keys to the kingdom at USC, one of the most historic programs on the West Coast, a program with endless resources in a division that only dreams of being as strong as the SEC West and he proceeded to get canned for not meeting expectations. I'm not exactly concerned with him.

I don’t give a crap if he can coach. Him pulling talent that we would pull otherwise is a problem.

Why would anyone leave our staff right as we're turning things around for a position at a program that's in much worse shape and in a much harder division? And before you say money, I highly doubt Ole Miss can outbid Tennessee if it's a coach Pruitt actually wants to keep.

Because Johnson may want to go back to coaching WR's and the could be an extra title added to allows a significant pay bump. I'm sure Kiffin will be looking for someone who is very established in recruiting Memphis.

Norvell and FSU can outbid Tennessee for David Johnson. Like I said a few days ago you can expect coach Johnson to get the call from Norvell. Coach Johnson would be a huge get for Norvell.
I can't see coach Johnson teaming up with Kiffin.

Lol, FSU out here asking boosters for more money. They’ll be lucky to get who they can.

yeah, and they'll go all in. Certainly found a way to pay a fortune to get out of a bad coaching situation so expect them to do whatever it takes. I really believe Norvell will call. Talk about fertile recruiting ground. Johnson would strike it big in Fla.

I was going to say it would depend on how much they make at their bake sale.

I'm happy for Norvell. The guy can coach and I am thrilled to see him get his chance. I expect Johnson to team up with him again. Clemson's going to have competition now. These guys will love playing for Norvell. We'll see what Novell can do in the big leagues.

If your speaking of Johnson then I think Pruitt going after him speaks highly of him and kids really love Johnson and he is a good recruiter. I don't know exactly what went down when they moved him to rb coach but his proven abilities where put on display at Memphis St. as WR coach. What they did with our cast away QB and those receivers were a thing of beauty. Their play at Memphis St. makes me think of what has happened at LSU when they brought Joe Brady over.

We'll see what happens in a few days. I'd be shocked if contact hasn't already been made. The two worked well together. Pruitt called some of his buddies in when he got the Tennessee job so I wouldn't expect any different with Norvell. I'd really hate to see coach Johnson go but wouldn't be surprised. We'll find out about some of our other coaches shortly.

They’re begging boosters for more money because they screwed up hiring Taggart and that buyout. Now they have to pay for another head coach and they’re broke. This ain’t the FSU from even 5 years ago. They’re in no position to get into bidding wars for position coaches.

I think 247 sports has an article up on what they expect Norvell may do as far as staff is concerned. Have you saw it ?
