Lane Kiffin’s gone, and the Big Orange is mournin’
So how do you feel now, Vol fans? Your brash young coach is no longer your coach at all. The guy you defended whenever he committed one of his secondary violations, which was hourly; the guy you believed would recruit his way to the top of the SEC … well, he’s in the wind, and you’re up the creek.
This is what you get when you entrust your program to a brat. He hits town talking big, and he leaves you in a Big Orange lurch. Ten years from now — heck, 10 minutes from now — we’ll be looking on Lane Kiffin’s season in K-Town and saying, “What the heck was that?” Called Urban Meyer a cheat, choppered down on Georgia high school stadiums, smirked at every abrogation of NCAA bylaws and then … poof, he’s gone.
Like Keyser Soze. Gone so fast you wonder, “Was he here at all?”
What do you do now, Vol fans? Gonna go hire yourselves another fast talker? Jon Gruden, maybe? Gonna let your heart be broken by another guy with an eye on the escape hatch?
Say this for the guy deposed to make room for Kiffy: Phillip Fulmer was a loyal Volunteer. He won you a national title and two SEC championships and never ran off to California or Connecticut or anywhere in between. He wasn’t glib and goodness knows he wasn’t sleek, but by gosh he was a Vol. That orange jersey meant everything to him. (Heck, he wore the thing.) Know what it meant to Kiffin? A way back to L.A.
Apart from signing a few players and making a slew of enemies and beating Georgia by 26 points, what exactly did Kiffin do? His one and only team finished 7-6. And if you were looking for his second team to topple a Tebow-less (and perhaps Urban-less) Florida, you can forget it. There’ll be no second team. Just another coaching search, another new man, another season of transition. Only this time — surely — at lower volume.
I feel for you, Vol fans. You gave your hearts to the brat, and he tore them out and stomped those suckers flat. (Apologies to Lewis Grizzard.) He’s gone to Southern Cal with his lovely wife and his professorial dad and his henchman Ed Orgeron. And you’re sitting at home in Caryville and Oak Ridge and Sewanee and Chattanooga weeping tears of rejection.
Weep not, I say. Or at least not for long. For all the turmoil you’re about to undergo, yours is the luckier program. You’ll find yourselves a coach and go forward and try to forget this ever happened. The Trojans, meanwhile, have traded the NCAA scrutiny left in Pete Carroll’s wake for the heavier dose sure to come under Kiffy and Eddie O. And here’s the darnedest part: Nobody is yet sure if Kiffin the Younger can coach a lick. (Career record: 12-21.)
You can do better than him, Vol fans. You knew as much all along, but you let yourselves be charmed by glitz and brass and promises now rendered as empty as the West Town Mall on a day when the Vols are playing. Deep down you’ve known all along this would never work. Deep down you knew the proud program of Cafego and Atkins and White and Holloway and Majors and Gen. Neyland was never a place for a brat.

I am a big time college football fan but have to say that the 2009-2010 college football coaching carousel (climaxed by Lane Kiffen) has provided a horrific example to the 17-22 year old players. I used to think the BCS was a mess!

I’m a little different. Even though I’m from Kentucky and Kentucky folks are supposed to hate Tennessee folks, I never have. I have great respect for that football program — my dad played baseball in the Army with Hal Littleford, who was a captain of one of Neyland’s teams, and spoke glowingly of him — and what it represents. And that’s why I couldn’t believe Tennessee allowed itself to be seduced by this twerp.

At least a few of us never fell for the act in the first place & now we just hope he didn’t do enough to cause serious NCAA problems down the road in the short time he was in Knoxville.

Mark – in the event ESPN offered you Bill Simmons job withe the salary to match would you stay to blog away at the AJC?
Kiffin’s dream job opened up and he grabbed it – in the moral sewer that is college football head coaching Kiffin is simply a highly evolved member of the species

Don’t mean to pile on the good Vol fans because I know some personally that I like. But where are all the loudmouth ones at now? The ones who have been coming on the UGA blogs making light of our DC search. And to all you UGA fans who have been critical of coach Richt. Where are you? Take heed UGA fans and understand that values and loyalty do mean something. Richt is everything that is good about college football coaches and kiffin represents everything that is bad. Richt will stay the course and find a suitable DC and I truly believe we will be SEC champs once again in the not to distant future. Has Richt made mistakes? Yes he stayed to long with WM and he would probably acknowledge that fact. But UGA fans can rest assured that he won’t leave us in the middle of the night for some shiny new job. Kiffin is a punk and i think he has some serious mental issues. Now everybody knows that Al Davis was actually telling the truth a few years back when he ran Kiffin out of town.

Between providing Reggie Bush hundreds of thousands of dollars and the slim that is Kiffin, the NCAA should get ready for action.

Phil Fulmer loved Tennessee. Fulmer breathed and ate Tennessee orange. In the good ole days ole UT would’ve stuck with Phil through the good and the bad and he’d probably have brought them back. But NO! The University of Tennessee dumped Phil in a rather classless shabby manner and got in bed with a guy, Lane Kiffin, who has a very questionable reputation, played fats and loose with NCAA rules and then dumped UT at the first chance.
The University of Tennessee deserved Lane Kiffin.
Now let’s watch Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Arkansas, Auburn etc. divide the spoils ie. UT’s recruits!!!!

All you complaining about the DC search at UGA. Mark Richt would never have done this to us. Last week Blake Sims decommitted from Bama based on what “Lane Kiffin” told him. What other lies has this guy told? How can today’s 17 and 18 year olds not see right through this guy? Most people thought “Lane Kiffin” would eventually cause the Vols trouble. They didn’t realize it would be this soon. 7 and 6 this year. BTW, “Lane Kiffin” is in quotes because he is a total fake. Time for the Dawg fans to rally around a man our state can be proud of instead of pining for these phonies who are in it for themselves above all else.

I’ve been on these blogs for a year now not so much running down Kiffin, but just showing the Vols what they really had. I feel bad for them, but this too shall pass. You will have a great coach, soon, and UT will be on its way to ithey will improving again. I’d have to say that they will soon introduce a class act, coach, with a record, and one whom plays by the rules. There are some good ones out there, and we shall soon see the glitz and glamour disappear, and the straight and narrow move back to UT.

Sorry he left before we got a shot at him after his remarks. TN did beat the hell out of us this year, but I attribute it more to our inability to adjust to the naked bootleg (which was run 20 times) and poor tackling.
Armed robbery at TN doesn’t get as much play in the AJC as suspended drivers licenses at UGA, but he ran a thug program and would have TN under NCAA investigation if not already.
Hope he loses every recruit he had and hope the AJC will give UGA a break for 24 hours.

The HillbillyNation showed no love or loyalty when they dumped Phil Fulmer (only coach to give UT a football national title in the last 40 years) and he was one of their own! They deserved Lane Kiffin!!! He may have gotten UT put on NCAA probation…we’ll soon see. And spoiled Lane leaves them in the wake for a BETTER job!
Whatever the outcome I bet this doesn’t stop that horde of fat Vol fans from going back for seconds at the all-you-can-eat buffet!

Well, first I have to say that Vol fans DESERVE this after all the crap they have talked for the last few years (even though they haven’t been a national power for quite a while). And I am certainly relishing in their feeling of bitterness, rejection, shock and disappointment… I hope it’s a good kick in the teeth and that they learn some FRIGGIN’ HUMILITY from this experience….
HOWEVER… i do feel a bit sorry for them, because as MB said, they “allowed themselves to be seduced by this little twerp.” UT, you should have looked for better character and class than you found in this loser. And you SHOULD have told him to shut his mouth when he started firing off at anybody who would listen. Your program deserved better than him.
UT does not have the classiest fans in the world, but they DO have a good football tradition, some rich history and some great players. Now, if you’d take a look and find a high-quality guy to be your coach — NOT the guy who makes the most promises — you’ll be alright. And this day may be rough, but in the long run, your school will be better off.
And by the way, for your next coach, may I recommend Willie Martinez….
GO DAWGS! See you all in Athens next year, and good luck with the search.

Tennessee Fans…sounds likeGeorgia Fans
Dozens of students and fans marched into the Neyland-Thompson Sports Complex on Tuesday night chanting obscenities at Tennessee coach Lane Kiffin, who was informing his players about his departure to Southern California.
The crowd then moved to an office area where an impromptu press conference was being held for Kiffin.
Police were called to quell the crowd, which calmed down once officers arrived.
The crowd eventually became rowdy and were asked to disperse without incident

It is time for the NCAA to step in and do something about the coaching situation…both salaries and contracts….in college football. Coaches, if they sign a contract to coach a school, should be required by contract to not accept another college football job for 4 years. At least they should do it for the recruits that commit not only their lives to a school, but to the head coach who made a bunch of worthless promises to him. If not, they should take any penalty away from players who want to transfer to another school if a head coach they signed with leaves the program. It would be only fair to them. Either hold the coaches accountable to their contract, or let the players move if the coach leaves. Sounds like a logical thing to do to me.

Tampa Gator, they really do need to get some control on this coaching thing, I agree with you, but don’t tell anyone that I agreed with you. Here is what I say, if a coach wants to leave, make him wait a year just like the players! If a school is in trouble becuase of a coach, then make him wait 3 years before he can go somewhere else. You see, if he had to wait a year, then more than likely any violations would be uncovered, and he would not be able to be hired.

First, Mark the Tennesse fans did not hire Kiffin it was the AD. Fans don’t hire coaches. Maybe the riches fans have some say but the vast majority do not. I was a Falcons fan and was disappointed when they hired Jim Mora jr.
You can blame the fans for getting rid of Fulmer but not for hiring Kiffin. All Fulmer really needed was an offensive coordinator. The defense was better under Chavis.
The AD was seduce by Kiffin’s energy especially after hiring Bruce Pearl.
The AD should be fired. Fulmer was fired for less. At least Tennessee had a good defense.

Hey UT Girl, your fan base DOES waver… Georgia’s does not. We rode Goff and Donnan’s butt because we expected better and had our sights set higher than 7-4. Now, I remember the way YOUR Vol fans treated Johnny Majors (a class guy) and Phillip Fulmer (a class guy) and rode them out of town VERY rudely. And they were the two best coaches you’ve had since Neyland. So you got what you deserved.
If you Vol fans were so “together” you would have supported Fulmer during the tough year he had in 2008 (remember he won 9 and 10 games in 2006 and 2007), BUT you ran his butt outta Knoxville.
And, UT Girl, if you knew ANYTHING about Bradley you’d know he loves Kentucky and hates Georgia, so he could care LESS if UT beat UGA. And as a Georgia fan, I could care less if UT beat us this year either… you can’t beat a team 45 outta 46 times. So just wait… see where the UT-UGA series is in a few years and you’ll see Georgia will likely have the upper hand.
And don’t criticize OUR fan base… I don’t criticize yours… but I DID remember reading some of the vile crap your fans posted after a few tough losses in 2008… they were rude and mean-spirited, toward Fulmer AND your players. They deserve better.
And don’t call my team the puppies… I don’t call YOURS the clueless, toothless, inbred rednecks do I?

TampaGator is right about all these coaching changes. All it does is leverage up the price of thses guys. There is no culpability for the coaches – they just go to the latest and highest bidder with no liability on their part. Richt himself got 3 guys huge raises.
I’m a capitalist and all for free business but somebody needs to step in and enforce a contract for these $multimillion coaches who can change without recrimination.
How about the NCAA enforces a coach to sit out a year when they break a contract? we’d at least have more stability and the gypsies like Lame would have to sit on it. (Then again, I’d dread watching that a**h*le as a talking head for a year in timeout).

Lane Kiffin named his son Knox (short for Knoxville?). Guess that’s kind of like being named Colt in the state of Texas. But now the dude’s gone to Southern California.
Lame Kiffin is the Johnny Knoxville of coaching. In honor of him departing from the SEC, let us all pick up our banjos and sing an Osbourne Brothers Rocky Top one last time:

IS IT TIME TO START PAYING A CASH STIPEND TO COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYERS?
Major college programs make so much money with “free” labor from the players, that they are now paying real money like it was monopoly money to head coaches and assistant coaches. Tennessee helped start the boom in assistant salaries last year. In a day or two we will find the actual salaries that convinced the Kiffens, Orgeson and Chow to say yes in a manner of hours, but you can guess that all of those salaries were substantial increases on salaries that were already high. Winning is going to be expected for large salaries and with the salary escalation now including the assistants, there are going to be more coaches tempted to cheat to get or keep a high salary. Since there probably is no way to cap coaches salaries, maybe all schools need to pay the same flat rate to all college football players. There will be less money to pay outrageous salaries to coaches and players that need to stay in college won’t feel they have to try to go to the NFL early to support their family.

They are SEC school and will do fine with finding a head coach, in fact I always thought Jim Mora Jr would be a good collage coach, they should get him.
Kiffin press conf was funny – he so knows he did UT wrong. dudes got issues, I never liked him.
If it was in his contract that he could opt out for USC, as soon as Carroll left UT may have know it was comeing, they may be more prepared then we think.
Also remeber the RB they signed last year becuase his Grandma thought so much of Kiffin, wonder what he’s thinking now.

Mark,
This is where the NCAA is not taking care of the kids, fans or schools. I feel less compassionate about the school or the AD who makes these decisions, but when a coach takes his greeed and personal desire to hang out a program it should be less about money and more about program impact. A buyout is not a penalty for a school to take a coach after one year. Penalize a school taking a coach with scholarships then the game changes. Take a coach after only one year, two year or while they are under contract then the school taking the coach should pay in scholarships and those scholarships should got the school losing the coach. That changes this ridiculous game of who has the most money!

Anyone that would actually wish for Coach Richt to go anywhere else is an absolute boneheaded moron. I hate it for the Vols that their fans got taken in by the idiots of the university that were taken in by a spoiled, untested pretty boy who spent more time in front of the mirror than his wife. You had a good coach who was run off the first time he went through a little rough spot, similar to the idiots who would run Coach Richt off now. You want a coach with a really hot wife? Hire Kirby. You want a proven coach who can win? Go after Tuberville before he signs the contract. Or call Muschamp, no one really thinks he’s going to wait until Mack Brown retires to become a H.C, do they? Either way, ‘Lane the brat’ will combine his secondary violations with Pete Carroll’s major violations and make it awfully hard for the NCAA to continue to look the other way when it comes to USC. Either way……….HBTD

What kind of people are WE that we regurgitate this half-digested human spew with such regularity? What kind of society is this where the homeless and their champions are reviled, while the Kiffins and Petrinos suck down fat checks?

Hey UT Recruits — Four of you fellas have the rare opportunity to get a priceless degree from the Georgia Institute of Technology. Four new scholarships just opened up for you. Come on down to Atlanta for the best four years of your life. (p.s. – as UT commits, I’m sure you won’t believe the crap or weak promises you’ll hear from those jokers over in Athens). Look forward to seeing you on the Flats.

That’s what you get. Hope the same happens to FSU.

Great column Mark, captured my sentiments exactly. I’m an Alabama guy who always had a lot of respect for Tennessee’s program, up until the last year. I didn’t hold Fulmer ratting out Alabama against him because when you’re dirty you’ve got it coming and Alabama was out of control under the hopelessly overmatched Dubose.
I was appalled to see how Tennessee’s fans embraced that snotty little punk Kiffin. He was an embarrassment to the SEC and to college football. I couldn’t bring myself to pull for them in the bowl game as I did for all the other SEC schools. It’s fitting that he’s headed to the University of Spoiled Children with Daddy and the sleazeball used car salesman Orgeron in tow. As for those other assistants who were hired because of their recruiting bases in various parts of the Southeast and are now left high and dry, too bad.
Nice career move, Lance Thompson. You missed out on a national championship for a year with Boy Kiffin. That spot you left at Alabama a year ago will likely be vacant in the next day or two when James Willis takes the DC job at Texas Tech under Tuberville. When the phone rings, it won’t be Nick Saban.
The infatuation of Tennesee’s fans with Lane Kiffin is like when a buddy of yours falls in love with a woman that everybody but him knows instantly is a complete phony. You know he’s going to end up with his heart ripped out but if you try to tell him to open his eyes that’s the end of your friendship. Hopefully the Tennessee fans will snap out of whatever stupor they were in to put up with Kiffin, and the UT administration will bring in somebody who will bring some character back to the Tennessee program.
I’ll bet Mike Slive is a happy guy this evening.

Mark Bradley – I’m a diehard Vols fan and I say you wrote an outstanding piece here. Many of us up here on Rocky Top have not been able to warm up to Lane, in spite of his charming wife and affable father.
I could tell from day one that he was a bad fit for both Tennessee AND the SEC. I, like you, think that Kiffin’s move to USC will benefit UT and the conference.
Some have posted that we could get coach Fulmer back to coach our guys but that won’t happen. But if Tennessee does the right thing, AD Mike Hamilton will be jettisoned and Phil will slide into THAT slot. He has the skills, and the love for the university, to guide the Vols back to their proper place among the SEC brethren.
Again – you’ve written an excellent item. Thanks.

It will kill them in the short term with recruiting and with the fact that they will be starting all over again. But it will be well worth it for them to get rid of the idiot.

someone earlier said UT fans were the most obnoxious. I completely disagree. I’ve been to a few road games including 3 trips to Knoxville. Every team has their idiot fans (including us) but I found the people in Knoxville to be the nicest and most gracious even in defeat. they congradulate when they lose and say “nice game” and “good luck the rest of the way” when they win. I can’t say the same for the majority of FLA and BAMA fans. All that said I always thought Fulmer was a no class jackass and was glad they canned him but the fans there deserve better than an even lowere class PUNK like Kiffen.
Hang in there Vol fans, hopefully this time you get a descent coach with some class and morals!!!!!!

What is Mike Garrett’s IQ? The NCAA has finally come out of their coma and is circling USC and he brings in Lane Kiffin and Ed Oregeron, the guys who wear secondary violations as a badge of honor? Why didn’t he just go ahead and spit in the NCAA’s face?

There is absolutely no loyality in the coaching profession any more. A couple of years ago it was that little gutless B. Petrenio that jump ship on the falcons and now this brat dumps a great program for another program. The grass always looks greener elsewhere. But we fans gotta admit. As long as our coach WINS and WINS consistantly, like EVERY SEASON, He’s the greatest thing that walks the planet. But 99% of the fans are impatent. If that coach has one mediocre season its fire his azz. Example, Philip Fullmer, Bowden, at Clemson, CMR at UGA. And on and on.We get what we deserve fans. And this type attitude is what comes from being so demanding and impatent. TO MOST FANS ITS WIN AT ANY COST. and he better win every season.

It is hilliarious to me. All of those 2010 recruit thugs are left in the cold now. It is too close to signing day to dump already commited SEC kids for these UT 2010 thugs. Take UGA’s DaRick whats his name kid ……….what is that moron going to do now??? Hmmmmmmmmm?? He was taking an official visit to Rocky Top. Hillarious and dumb he must be. Egg on his All American face. A fool. He won’t play at UAG for two or three years anyway. He better hope that richt allows him to keep his scholarship …offer.
I see CPJ sending his resume to Knoxville using that old helicopter to get it there asap. HAHAHAHA
Triple O moves to Knoxville. HAHAHAHA where is Conredge Holloway when they need him??? HAHAHA
Wow ………I’m taking a day off and driving up to Athens this is so funny. I am over 61 and laughing so hard so late at night, that I can’t breathe………..just kidding. Hillarious this is.

UT (the one in TN) is not going to get a top-tier coach in a short period of time. Muschamp’s got a great job lined up and Smart’s not going to embarrass himself by flip-flopping. Nor is he ready for a HC’ing position. UT (the one in TN) fans have unreasonably high expectations and it puts undue pressure on any prospective coach. Look at the HS football, or lack thereof, in TN. They have to recruit outside of the state in order to have any chance at all to compete in the SEC. And this is very difficult to do, as the Kiffin clan found out. Vol fans need to get real and come to terms with the fact that they’re just not a top-tier program. But at least they have a large NASCAR venue nearby that they can be proud of. Maybe they could make NASCAR a NCAA sport and they could make a track around Neyland Stadium.

Hello to all recruits,
Who do you want to play for? A coach that one day is retiring and next day is not? A coach that recruits you and one year in SEC is done? A coach that is not going to leave Miami? A sec team that’s coach recently just retired without ever winning an SEC Championship? A coach whose loyalty is to Goerge Wasing ton and not to you? Or a coach that has had only one HC job in the college footballand the SEC whose league just won 4 straight NC Championships in a row and the most stable college program in all the SEC. A coach that has won 2 SEC titles and many feel deprived a shot at a NC in 2007. A coach with 9 years under his belt in the SEC. I know where I am heading if I am a recruit. I also know who I feel will be my HC when I graduate.
P. Bull Terrier

What are they thinking at USC? Are they completely unaware of what is going on with Kiffin’s program at TN?
Maybe USC is taking a cue from Paul Johnson’s offense on this one and bringing in Kiffin to confuse the NCAA. He’ll have NCAA investigators looking in so many directions they won’t be able to find the the big violations.
Or maybe they’re just tired of waiting for the NCAA to drop the hammer and figure it’ll be quicker to stick their head in the NCAA hornets nest instead of worrying about about it hanging above them.
Whatever the case, I’m disappointed. I was looking forward to watching Kiffin drag the once proud TENN program through the mud. Now, the team probably won’t be any worse no matter who they get and the new guy won’t take the program down with him…
…unless they get Jim Mora.

Its easy to say now that Majors deserved better. Kind of like Bowden deserved better. Unfortunately, the game had passed him by much like Bowden. He couldn’t take it to the next level. Obviously Tennessee’s decision was justified by Fulmers NC in 98. Fulmer was the hot commodity at the time. I grew up a Majors fan but looking back he was way too conservative. Cost us a couple games against Bama in the 80s. Ran it too much on third and long instead of going for it. Also punted on 3rd down once? A lot of good memories during his reign too though.

I’m one of the rare UT and UGA fans (UT for undergrad, UGA for grad school) and I happen to live in Oregon, in the heart of Pac 10 country. As a Vol fan, we loved the new energy and swagger that Kiffin brought in, but we winced every time he made one of his stupid comments or acted like an ass.. I guess we were just hoping for something new and different, for Fulmer had really left things uninspired… the players weren’t in shape, the playcalling took no risks, all we had was a good defense… and to be honest, a lot of us were inspired by the level to which guys like Richt and Meyer brought other teams in the SEC. We are absolutely floored. Now, I root for the Dawgs whenever they play (unless it’s against UT, for TN is also where I grew up)… and I root for any SEC team when they play out of conference. I know many have an axe to grind here, and I don’t blame them. Kiffin wrote a lot of checks his butt will never cash. So Vol fans probably deserve a lot of it coming their way now… but I would encourage you to hang on to Richt, and have faith. He’s a good man, a good coach, and leads your team with honor and integrity. Take it from Volnation, we learned our lesson and would love to have a guy like that at the helm these days. Anyway, we’re hurting and you guys are in a good spot. Enjoy thrashing the Vols next year, for it’ll take years for us to get out of this mess.

Because he is a quality coach will was going to turn that program around and contend for the SEC championship within a couple years. I cant believe that some of these ignorant people have been talking about backing up al davis…al davis ran him out of town because he didnt want jamarcus russell and he didnt think he was good enough…..guess what….jamarcus cant cut it in the nfl and lane was right. and tom cable is probably gunna get fired as well because he doesnt want jamarcus russell anymore. lane kiffin may have stepped on toes of everybody in the SEC but nobody is giving him credit for playing florida tough, almost beating alabama and should have and beating the snot out of georgia. the SEC should breathe a sigh of relief that tennessee will have to pick up the pieces again and start over.

And, what is this that the students in Knoxville started a fire to keep Lame Kitten in Knoxville by leaving their trailers to burn their mattresses ? Hillbillies.
Please come back in here and put a spin on this vols’ fans.
I can’t wait.
Tell us all again of your moral victories ?
Lame Kitten 7-6 one season who beat no Final AP Poll or USA Today Coaches’ Poll Top 25 team, gone. When he was at USC, he was NEVER the Offensive Coordinator. That was 2 other guys, both now gone. Norm Chow UCLA now who was then replaced by Steve Sarkisian who left after last year to Washington. He was their assistant and he grinded on the players, other coaches, and media the whole entire time at Southern California and all the other places he stayed for a year thereafter, too. An impetuous impatient child smart-aleck know-it-all Spoiled Brat, and a huge big loose cannon who will step in at USC for all their NCAA Major Violations including Reggie Bush’s Court Trial which finally comes up with Sworn Statements finally now. And, the added issue of now not only Reggie Bush’s Mansion provided to his entire family under market value, but now too yet the rift between Pete Carroll and USC AD Mike Garrett over tailback Joe McKnight’s illegal use now of a vehicle not in his name. A Land Rover. At least at USC, it’s a Mansion and a Land Rover. Nice perks. Lame Kitten will fit right in there. These NCAA sanctions will happen this year. Why did Pete Carroll leave for a lousy Seattle team when he is failed as an NFL Coach at New England and the Jets 33-31 record ?
Lame Kitten Fresno State Quarterback who NO ONE LIKES, who NEVER was the Offensive Coordinator at USC. Never. Pete Carroll was the Defensive Coordinator, make no mistake of that, just like Nick Saban. At UGA, all we have is a damn CEO whose only job responsibility anymore is to hire a “coaching staff” which he has been totally miserable at doing for 10 years now this season.
Coach Richt Era 17-19 vs. Final AP Poll Top 25 teams in 9 years plus another 8 Losses to teams not even ranked in the Final AP Poll Top 25, including David Greene 8-9 vs. LSU, Florida, vols, and Auburn. David Greene was 9-8 vs Final AP Poll Top 25 teams but dropped 2 games Losses to teams not even ranked in the Final AP Poll Top 25.
It’s NOT like we are something great s c dawg.
And, the problem is and has been the “coaching staff” all hired by Coach Richt including his first hire of Rodney Garner December 20, 2000. Brian VanGorder’s Falcons defense sucks. No coach with any NFL experience not 1 coach 1 day. Losing record against Final AP Poll Top 25. The real teams we played each of 9 years now. Only 3 wins against teams in the Top 10 of the Final AP Poll Top 25 in 9 years, and only 1 of those is David Greene. His 1st win which he never duplicated. The offensive woes of this Coach Richt Era are Legendary for all 9 years. Even the 2 years we did play Knowshon Moreno and not redshirt him again that year, we handed him the ball 13 times only in loss after loss after loss. Then, we actually run the ball against GA tek and low and behold, we win a game – so we KEEP Mike Bobo. I’m sorry Willie Martinez and Jon Fabris are hardly all our issues on this “coaching staff.” Which 1 is in charge of the 121 suspensions/arrests in 9 years now of the Coach Richt Era ? Who teaches a position as position coach who actually played that position as a damn player ? No one. Who is in charge of kick-offs and returns ?
vols of course, should have kept Chief. I tried to tell them that. I tried to tell Coach Richt to snap him up then too.
s c dawg, though no so damn much more about all this than all of us and than God Above.
By the way, like UGA’s DC, Lame Kitten was Choice Number 4 at USC who finally settled on Lame Kitten after 3 whiffs. It is no better for him than it is for whomever Coach Richt gets off his butt and hires as his 4th Choice.
Don’t let the trailer trash door hit you on the backside on the way out Lame Kitten, you failure.
Granddad Monte Kiffin, Defensive Coordinator, gone.
Ed Orgeron, Recruiting Coordinator, gone.
After all you said in here about how great Lame Kitten is, please put a spin on this for me vols’ fans. I eagerly await your B.S. now about Lame Kitten’s FAILURES, totally after all your attempted DEFENSE of him HERE.
Go ahead. Defend him again, or make an about-face and agree with me all along that the jerk Lame Kitten is a sorry NOTHING of a Coach and person. How is his entire only recruiting class, put in jail over armed robbery, drugs, alcohol, and weapons charges, doing ? Been by to see them at the jail, or are you waiting to leave your trailer only to burn your mattresses to keep Lame Kitten there. God Almighty.
I don’t care that you obviously now will end up with a better coach; I just want you to admit The Spoiled Brat Little Monster is gone and that you burned your mattresses to keep him there you Hillbillies – along with the fact that I told you so, and you DEFENDED Lame Kitten : Choose : Defend him AGAIN, Admit I was right all along. Where is his win like our win over GA tek ?

This is fitting for Kiffin. Instead of landing Tennessee if front of the NCAA, the work has already been done for him and he can go to a program that will already be sanctioned. I’m a Georgia fan, but what Kiffin did to the Vols in inexcusable and unacceptable…because you are still dealing with kids. You are entrusted with their well-being. I don’t mind a coach taking a new job, but this was ridiculous. This was the Colts leaving town in the middle of the night with Mayflower moving trucks.
The event is exactly why student athletes should be given greater latitude to leave a program; especially if they have not ever set foot on the playing surface during a contest that counts. The NCAA needs to look hard at this and players need to be given greater opportunity to move on without penalty once they have been horn-swaggled.

You article is too funny Mark. Very witty but dead on target.
The people I feel sorriest for are the USC fans. They just got stuck with a pitch fork. lmao
TN has a lot of trash to clean out of the trailer park now that the cuzzins family has hitched up their single wide and gone POOF in the night.
But all joking aside, TN is going to benefit greatly from this resignation. There has not been one single name tossed into the ring for thought as resplacement that isn’t top notch. This may in fact be where Kirby goes. Or even Muschamp. So watch how you laugh at TN as they may get the last laugh.

what's a contract?
January 13th, 2010
6:55 am
Tim, most contracts will have a buyout clause, so that when a low-life like Kiffin bolts, the school he goes to pays that salary back to Tennessee, so the school is protected. Like I read earlier….at least he screwed them with a Trojan.

He is lucky a Knoxville mob with pitchforks did not storm his house and drag him and his decrepit old daddy into the street. UT will be so much better off without the little PUNKAZZ BEYOTCH.

It won’t happen, but it’d be sweet if Kirby Smart was hired as UT’s next head coach, shafting daddy Nicky, and Richt dominating him over the 3 or 4 years Smart is there, until he is fired. Like I said, won’t happen, but its fun to think about.

You UT folks amaze me! You divorced the faithful wife (Fulmer) and married the porn star (Kiffin), bragged about his indiscretions and now she left you for a movie star (USC).
You got what you deserved. From your AD down, you never repremanded his violations, you bought into his “all publicity, good or bad is good” lie, so enjoy you bad pub!
Now some of you morons are crying “Cutcliff will win NC in 2010″! You still don’t get it….. you will lose your recruits, your program is going to lose scholarships after the NCAA is finished, and UT will be a south carolina type team for the next three or four years.
Don’t worry ….. Kiffin walks into an NCAA investigation and he will get his when the NCAA puts USC on probation.

Kiffin was and still is a jerk. Oh, is he taking his wife with him to USC? Just asking, cause being the idiot he is, I figure he would forget her.

Was Fulmer loyal? Of course. Could we have kept him for another 20 years, sure. Would we have won another NC? I don’t think so. Tennessee is like every other SEC school, and we all want the same thing a NC. Could we all be like FSU and keep a coach way past his prime? Sure, but what does it get you? Dawg fans have your fun, its okay. We understand, your program has falter and this gives you comic relief to make you forget you own issues. No matter what that 1st year coach beat you like a drum and that will never change.
This move was a no brainer and Kiffen is going back to his home. Who among us wouldnt make the same move? Did he do it with class? No! But it is what it is. As far as Bradley is concerned, he’s a homer and we all know it. This article is full of sour grapes and stabs at a team that destroyed his team with a 1st year coach.
What is the painful truth for Georgia and the rest of the SEC is that there is a lot of high quality guys out there right now, and UT will get one of them.
Laugh now, but not too hard, remember there is no loyality and these guys will leave for the biggest paycheck in a heartbeat and you don’t have to look to far to see this as a fact.

Once he ruins USC’s program, he will run back into his rat hole, never to be heard from again.

I honestly don’t have a clue what USC was thinking with this hire. This guy hasn’t proven a thing, except that he thinks he is the perfect coach. He basically couldn’t hack it in the SEC and he probably couldn’t stand Knoxville…so he left.
This really shouldn’t shock anyone. He fits right in at Southern Cal. What a flake!

Forde says it best in his article…. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/columns/story?columnist=forde_pat&id=4820927
What’s to love about Lane?
His career head-coaching record is 12-21.
He’s already 0-1 against USC’s biggest rival, UCLA.
His signature win was a loss — a two-point defeat at eventual national champion Alabama. Other than that, the best thing the Volunteers did in 2009 was thumping the worst Georgia team in a decade.
His team was de-pantsed in the Chick-fil-A Bowl by Virginia Tech, and de-pantsed in Oxford by an underachieving Mississippi.
And that’s just the on-field stuff. Off the field is where he’s really raised doubts, and raised the ire of SEC commissioner Mike Slive. Kiffin has specialized in stupidity.
Sleep well Vols, you will be better off without him.

He is being used by USC who will be heading to probation for Pete’s trangressions. This probably gets the NCAA off of UT’s back since Kiffin’s gone. So consider yourself lucky. You might lose a year of recruits (probably not) and that is the worst part of it. But you don’t have Kiffy anymore. You guys should have a parade for him on the way out of town.

Once the UT fans shake off their white-lightning hangovers this am, I hope they will take heed to my suggestion. As a UGA alum, please understand I honestly don’t care in what direction they travel. But for what its worth, they should immediately speak with David Cutcliffe.
This man obviously has as history with UT and can calm the storm in K-ville. This should be a no-brainer for UT but then again UT officials couldn’t figure out what Al Davis already knew.

From one who has no place in his ice cold heart for UT………they didn’t deserve this. Kiffin, along with Jim Mora, Jr, are just spoiled rich kids riding daddy’s coat tails. Kiffin has never actually done ANYTHING but shoot his mouth off. Here’s to hoping the NCAA drops the hammer next month on the USC program. See how long Kifffin sticks around when there are no bowl appearances for the next 5 years.

I don’t feel for TN fans at all. Many a TN fan anointed Lame Kitten as already a better coach than Phil Fulmer ever was or thought about being.Phil Fulmer only won them one of the four national championships they ever won. This boy genius went 7-6 for them and was already proclaimed better than Fulmer. When you trash an alum for this brat how can you feel sorry for that crowd at all.

I hope all of the blue chip players see what is going on with these holier-than-thou coaches.They need to make sure that they can get all they can from these football plantations called colleges. Play two years and move on to the NFL. I hope Ingram leaves Bama before he blows out a knee just like Moreno did at Jawja. College football and the NCAA sucks with all the hypocrisy and money been made by the coaches, schools and conferences while the players get nothing but cheers and boos and lessons in being a bad citizen. Kilfin, Leach, Carroll, Saban, Petrino, etal. are providing good examples of why parents need to get an agent to help them when choosing a school. The NCAA rules need to be changed to help and protect the athletes.

I posted on this site not a week ago saying that I was friends with an old, downtown Knoxville merchant and he was so and so. I tried to tell y’all that Kiffen had already been forewarned of any MORE shenanigans he would be in deep T ………… then, USC opened up and he split.
UT is in dis array now and thy are going to lose about 8 recruits from this. They are looking at a 6-6 at best year and maybe 7-4 in 2011 and oh well. When you play, you pay.
It could not have happened to a more deserving school. Pistols, drugs, robberies, rental cars with bags of fun ………….. I predicted this.

There used to be some integrity n the coaching profession, but with major college sports current economics, it has all but disappeared.
Personally, I believe Lane Kiffin is overrated. It is my strong belief Tennessee was probably going to have to fire him within the next two or three years, not only for NCAA violations but because he’s not a winner. Vol fans should be grateful they have an opportunity to find some young, upcoming prospect who can return Tennessee to the winning ways of the mythical Colonel Neyland. The school’s never had a coach who has come anywhere near to matching his successes on the gridiron. Kiffin certainly fell way short of Neyland’s abilities.
As far as Lane Kiffin is concerned, I give him about three to four years at USC and he’ll be gone.

I am very angry at what has happened but have to admit that we (actually UTAD) have brought it on ourselves. It was obvious to anyone who wanted to see reality that this would be a short term relationshp. It is being reported that Coach Oregeron is contacting recruits who have enrolled at UT early to not go to first day of classes (today). What a swarmy collection of people.

It is hilarious to hear about the failed siege attempt by the students on the athletic center. And I wonder how Kiffin, et al, left town unharmed. Back in the early 70’s I recall a trip from Atlanta to Memphis to help a friend move back to Georgia. We were travelling in a Chevrolet Vega which was new but rust was showing through the paint. I was shocked, even horrified as we made our way through Tennessee to see, literally, hillbilly shacks on the hillsides. I was praying that we would not break down so I would not have to approach one these in-the-middle-of-nowhere manses in a request for help. “You Hatfield or McCoy?”

I realize that there are good folks everywhere. In fact, I now live in South Carolina. At a USC-UGA game in Columbia I once had to jack-up an obnoxious Dawg fan. I told him that after the game he would be making his way back to Georgia but I was staying and living among some of the best people on earth, “So just shut-up and sit down!” But, the trip to Memphis is true and I have witnesses.

We college football fans are to blame for the mess that is, not only college football, but all of college athletics. Coaches are now hired guns and they make much, much more than the freakin’ college Presidents! We have “student athletes” who often can’t speak the Queen’s English, much less read and write.
We fans are so passionate about our beloved universities that we’re perfectly happy to look past all of this in the name of a good team/program. And it’s only going to get worse as I believe it’s spiralling out or control. Coaches, who have no loyalty to their school, take the best offer. Players sign with the school that offers them the best chance to get to the pros.
We need to get back to reality and the NCAA needs to require that schools field the players who are students first and athletes second. My son plays D3 soccer and it’s that way in his division.
Until this happens, players will continue to get arrested, coaches will continue to be hired guns, and we fans will continue to get exactly what we deserve by supporting all of this. Thank you (stepping down from my soapbox)

The guy was classless and had no business being a HEAD coach anywhere, much less Tennessee. The Tennessee will be better off not having him. Now it’s time to go out and get a real Head football coach that can lead the program instead of a little brat.

Kiffin did nothing from the moment he stepped on the UT campus but embarrass a lot of UT fans, me included. He was a big-mouth, who talked the talk but has never walked the walk. I didn’t like the hiring when it took place and, quite frankly, I’m glad he’s gone. However, the way he left and the timing of his leaving shows just what a low-life, classless person he is. He showed what he was every time he opened his mouth and now he’s demonstrated it with his actions. Good riddance.

I haven’t forgot that and it has caused me to be mindful of not kicking someone when they’re down on more than one occasion since that time. Hang in there U.T. this too shall pass and you’ll be better for it. I was. GO VOLS.

I wouldn’t have wished this on my worst enemy. In a moral sense the Vols got hosed. Who knows in the long run that this may actually be in their best interests. I would not want to see this happen to any school. Though, it is kind of a querky profession. Not much loyalty anywhere, that’s just the nature of the beast and it has been for some time. Maybe Fulmer will want to come back?
If the DAWGS thought they had it bad, look how quickly the tables can turn, at UF and not at UT. We’ve got to replace a DC. That looks a lot less daunting than what these other programs are facing.

BOOO FREAKIN HOOO!
When you fire your long time coach because he isn’t “productive” enough and go with the hot young coach don’t ask for sympathy if it backfires. TN is not a better job than USC. USC is a much better job. Which would you rather be – the biggest thing in TN or the biggest thing in Los Angeles? Not even close.
TN and their fans should shut up and dry their eyes and go find a coach. Welcome to the age of the free-agent. Everyone in business is a free-agent. The only people who stay at a company for 20 years now are hmmmm – Sport Writers
If Kiffin goes 6-6 this year at TN does anyone think that TN wouldn’t be looking to replace him? What happens if Kiffin gets fired at TN? He sure isn’t getting his dream job if he gets fired at TN.
In a “what have you done for me lately world” the problem is not the coaches – it is us. We like winners. If you are a nice guy (see Chan Gailey) but don’t win (see Chan Gailey) you are going to be enjoying your view from the unemployment line. If you are a jerk (see Nick Saban – almost screamed at his players for the gatorade bath) and you win (see this year’s NC) you are going to be loved and adored.
Once the country becomes filled with non competitive people and we replace the NC trophy with participation awards we can make sure that no one gets their feelings hurt. Until that happens – GET OVER IT and COMPETE!!! All Lane Kiffen did was compete hard – for attention, recruits, games (AL and FL), and he pushed the TN people to get their swagger back and stop being a second tier SEC school.

Great day for us in the USC TROJANS NATION. All you Tennesse crybabies and SEC crybabies say what you want about Lane. The fact is the man is a good coach and with the talent he has at USC, he will do great things.
I want to know this, if Lane Kiffin is such a weak coach then why DID YOU SORRY VOLS FAN RIOT LAST NIGHT? I could understand if Florida fans did that in regards to Urban Meyers because Urban is a good coach…but if Lane is so bad, then why riot? You should have celebrated.
Notice how classy the Trojans fans were after Pete announced he was leaving..no riots on campus…FIGHT ON AND OH BY THE WAY ALABAMA, GET READY TO GIVE SEND THE BCS TROPHY TO HERITAGE HALL IN LOS ANGELES!
