Didn't say that either of their coaching ability was sub par or that LSU shouldn't hire them because they are bad OCs. Kiffin makes me nervous because he has a tendency to get in trouble especially when him and O coached together. I think either would be good hires (from a coaching perspective). I just don't think Saban would lose his mind over them leaving, which is what my original comment was all about.

Lucked out is a huge stretch.

Well we had no offense and a missed holding call. I would say that's pretty fortunate. Of course the no offense is a credit to the Bama D, in part.

What did Kiffin do in all of Bama's games not at LSU vs. Aranda?

Well i made my original statement because Aranda is one of the best DCs in the country. Seeing how his offense struggled against Aranda, i wonder how much success he would have against saban.

The reality is that there isn't an OC in the land that you can say will beat Saban with much confidence.

No argument there.

You're the biggest Canada fanboy on this site. The majority of the defenses he is shredding are garbage and Pitt's D is so bad they're in shootouts every game.

Im not sure i am the biggest fanboy. I like him, but i dont think he is the only solution. So you don't want Gilbert or Briles either? They typically play garbage defenses so they're not that good either? Pitt plays in the ACC. It's not like we're talking about the AAC or something. I don't even know why Canada is relevant to this conversation, though.

quote:
Do you think that Nick would be more concerned about facing a Kiffin led offense, knowing that Kiffin was inside the program going up against his D daily or a Matt Canada directed offense that he could watch a season's worth of film on and likely limit severely?

Again, not sure why Canada is even being discussed, but you could say that about any coach not Lane Kiffin or Sark. Not really certain anything is gonna cause Saban concern, tbh. I would say the inside knowledge is a two way street. I don't think that gives Kiffin a significant edge over any other coordinator. Saban prepped against Kiffin's O every day in practice too.

quote:
There is a reason Nick is suddenly endorsing Kiffin for HC positions and trying to land him anywhere but Baton Rouge

Lulz if you actually believe that Saban is so scared of kiffin or sark he would falsely sell them to other schools to prevent them to coming to LSU. That's just a Rant rumor that holds no water. There's no proof to even make that claim.
