Current Alabama offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin will reportedly interview for the Houston head coaching job on Sunday, according to SB Nation.

Kiffin is believed to be the top candidate for the available OC position at LSU:
quote:

Alabama offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin will interview for Houston’s vacant head coaching position after the Tide’s SEC Championship against Florida, multiple sources told SB Nation. UH needs a coach to replace Tom Herman, who took the Texas job after two seasons that included a 5-0 record against power-conference teams.

Kiffin, also being courted by LSU to join Ed Orgeron’s staff as offensive coordinator, will meet with Houston Sunday. Also under heavy consideration are interim head coach Todd Orlando, offensive coordinator Major Applewhite, former LSU head coach Les Miles, and Oklahoma offensive coordinator Lincoln Riley.
Alabama head coach Nick Saban was asked about Kiffin on Friday.


Sounds like Saban doesn't want Kiffin to go to LSU...

I agree. Tom Herman beat some ranked teams but lost to several nobodies as well. Yeah he was 22-4 but look at the high number of SMU/Lamar/Texas State/Tulane type teams on that win list. I have my doubts.

In all seriousness, Les would be the best fit. He's not going to up and leave. Would he be the best coach? Lane would just be using UH as a stepping stone, which UH is dead set against.(monster buy out clause) Who knows though.

Go after Major Applewhite now! He has the talent, experience and is from BRLA.

It's not Orgeron's fault that LSU hired him! Blame LSU, not it's coach! So Orgeron had a plan and just so happen, it was in a binder. Whats wrong with that?

This binder BS is ridiculous. Do you honestly think that HC's being interviewed walk in empty handed?? They all have some sort of hard copy of their plan!!! Please stop with this "but the binder" bull shite.....you sound like a 3rd grade child on the play ground at recess.

I seriously doubt that Kiffin goes from Tennessee to USC to Houston. When he goes back to being a head coach, it will be for a power 5 school.

How crappy will Orgeron's first month as HC look if Kiffin drives around Baton Rouge on the way to Houston?

Here we go again. We will hourly tweets from twits with ESPN and random websites that will end up being completely wrong. We will get a very good coordinator in the end for reason....$$$$$

Absolutely right Comalking. Way early. But I think Kiffin is ready for another HC gig, just like O is. Next man up: Art Briles! Come on down!
