    How likely is it Kiffin or any top coach with a good situation is going to leave that to go where he will not know who his AD or Prez are going to be? Very low % IMO. This is a big problem to fix that will take time

    How soon until Kiffin is asked in a press conference about our job?

    Did someone do Zook, Muschamp, Cheese Teeth, and Mullen? I wonder how they stack up.

    Saban was at Miami, so? SOS was with the Redskins. Steve Sarkisian was at the Washington Huskies. Simply put, Gruden and Kiffen are not comparable! I have never been a Lame Kitten fan, but this is a no brainer.

    In fairness he was at the Raiders twice and we once had a SuperBowl where both teams were in essence (partially at least) his products.

    I dont want Gruden in my top 5, but the guy can coach and is very QB centric.

    My only concern with Kiffin is that I don’t trust him. Trust him to:
    1) not use this simply as an opportunity to boost his salary at Ole Miss
    2) not use this as an opportunity to troll us and walk away laughing
    3) not pull a Tennessee and walk out in the middle of the job if the MFL comes calling
    4) dedicate himself to the long-term mission of returning Florida to greatness
    5) stick around longer than 3 years

    One thing we know - Lane Kiffin is loyal to nobody but Lane Kiffin. And I don’t think it’s in his character to ever be. Sadly, I still think he’s probably our best option if he’ll come at all

    Lane Kiffin is at his 5th head coaching post, and he’s still only 49yo. If he ends up being the choice, experience won’t be an issue.

    Yep. I think Mullenis just an epic troll machine. Dude is loving the life and having a blast poking the ghy who gave him the retired life.

    Why is this different than any other top notch candidate?
