Will Lane Kiffin Survive This Season

  • se-alum
    Players having meetings without telling him. Players saying Kiffin lied about conversations he said happened. Marquise Lee doesn't even call him coach, just Kiffin. Will he make it through this season?

    Kiffin will be lucky to make it 3 more games. There is no chance he is ever coaching at USC again after this year.
  • vball10set
    Yes, and then he's gone.
  • ptown_trojans_1
    If they lose to Utah St, and they might, he will be gone that Monday.
    The only way he could save his job is a sweep of beating Notre Dame and UCLA.

    Otherwise, he is gone at the end of the year.

    He's gone. The biggest do nothing coach there is. Possibly only overshadowed by charlie weis

    Good ol' boy system/nepotism.

    His dad's one of the best defensive minds in coaching, so he was destined to get high-profile chances due to his last name. After this debacle, though, there's a chance that the MAC will be too high-profile for him to get into.

    Brings to mind what Andy Furman said on 700 WLW years ago that landed him and the station in some trouble with the bengals. In describing how Mike Shula still had a job with the bengals the Furman said he was "sperm lucky".

    For a bit The bengals threatened to leave WLW and such. Was quote a hub bub.

    But it is relevant with this Kiffin.

    He'll get fired and end up coaching the Steelers or some other top NFL team.

    Probably get canned at USC and then go to Texas.

  • carmen

    One more loss to a nothing team like Washington State and he's done.

    Lane Kiffin's job survival is dependent on the USC athletic department's evaluation of him as a coach.

    Con Alma would not even comment on this, as Lane Kiffin's job survival has nothing to do with his personal entertainment or him providing for his family.

    And it has nothing to do with the Naval Academy.

    You're trying too hard.

    Kiffin is a bigger fraud than Jimmy "The Liar" Tressel as far as coaching abilities go.

    seriously? Tressel a fraud as a coach?
  • Tiernan
    Yeah one of the biggest. Not familiar with his work? ...or should I say lack thereof.
  • hasbeen
    I bet Tiernan was the biggest Tressel homer ever.

    I could out myself by proving just how wrong you are Neverwas.
