His players are in short sleeves and he is dressed like an Eskimo girl. He may be able to coach a little, but I'd love to see CBJ take him in a bar fight.
The sunglasses, etc. etc. He's trying too hard. If he loses, will he get fired? This was suppose to be the top team in the nation, better than the SEC, according to pre-game predictions.
It is amazing how classless and clueless Kiffin, and everybody he associates with, have become. They show up 90 minutes late for the banquet that was sponsored by bowl officials. They pretty much tell everyone to get over it. Arrogance with a sense of entitlement is a bad combination. Kiffin exhibits both.
Kiffin's attire should tell you that he wasn't going to last long in Knoxville. He is a California kid and they usually only like warm weather.
I didn't like Kiffin's mouth, but I was willing to give him a chance. He was bringing in top talent (even though a lot of them left or didn't make it) and should be given credit for turning Crompton into a serviceable QB. That was a miracle in and of itself. I never liked Oregeron and I still think he's about as big of a scumball in college football as there is at any level.
Kiffin got his job because of his dad like a lot of kids do. It will take time to get a fair assessment on if he can be a good coach or not. He hasn't been anywhere long enough to really gauge what he can or can't do.
The main thing I think about is what Kiffin reminds me of. He reminds me of that kid in grade school that would take off up the stairs and say let's race after he got a 3 or 4 step lead and then get to the top and say, "Beat you!!!".
