Source: Agency based in Tennessee

Where: QB Luncheon in Memphis

HC: Lane Kiffin
DC: Monty Kiffin
DL and Recruiting Coordinator: Coach O

Source said this was a done deal and that LK, since he is in 2m per range, asked to bring in the highest paid assistants in the country (or at least pay top dollar)

That's it...nothing really new, but he said that Kiffin had all of these deals in place (verbals) before he walked to the podium. Did not ask about the OC...is that Kiffin himself?

Do not know much about LK.

FWIW

Kiffin/USC connection. Makes sense.

Not doubting this could be correct, but Ogeron sure sounded interested in LSU even after Kiffin took the UT job (when interviewed on tv here in N.O.).

I would say they had lots of biscuits but I forgot the Phil is no longer coaching.

The Luncheon actually served something new...baked chicken with mixed veggies. I too thought we had a shot at O in the same position...the guys manages several big name coaches if you know anything baout the agency.

Just relaying the information.

And yes, my chicken was extremely dry and cold. Chocolate cake was excellent.

It's called leverage...if a school wants you and they know you have other suitors, they know they will have to pony up bigger bucks. It's a game.

So is O to UT leverage or a done deal? I'm so confused...
