Reports surfaced Monday that Arkansas met with him.

He’s almost been too quiet where he could be announced somewhere. Would be a home fun for Arkansas

Arkansas already has their home run.

Last I read theyre allocating $10 million for coach g staff, which means if Kiffin gets $4 million, he has $6 million to hire coaches with.

Briles OC (if he doesn't get a HC job)

TBD on DC, but Randy Shannon and Charlie Strong were mentioned.

They really want Sam Pittman as AHC/OLine and are willing to pay him over $1 million to come.

Even if they pay the coordinators 1.5 and Pittman 1, that would still leave 2 million for position coaches.

Announcement won't be made until after CUSA championship, obviously, but the FAU counter offer was more for optics when negotiating with their next coach.

Florida State was Sexton's way of maximizing salary. Kiffin never had a chance there.

Ditto Ole Miss.

Kiffin wants Arkansas and majority of Arkansas fans want him.

Big money wanted Butch Davis.

If that was the case, FAU would've held a press conference 10 minutes after he signed.

He gone.

Keep telling yourself that. If he leaves FAU it won't be for Rkansas

After Saturday, he'll be the head coach at Arkansas. FAU needs to start reaching out to candidates, if they haven't already.

If Florida State wanted him, he would have walked to FSU. Don't act like he picked Arkansas over FSU. He is like 7th or 8th on their list

Which isn't that much. Saban makes more than that himself, dabo makes that much. As I figured, arky isnt willing to spend with the big boys and will remain 5th at best in the division.

Hey man, you do realize that if he performs well he and his staff will get raises right? You’re very bad at this trolling thing.

Yea...he's been very quiet. And I'm not absolutely convinced that he's not leaving WSU. I'd be happy with Leach as well as a couple of others. But I don't think most of our fans would be as pleased as I would be. All the hype has been about Kiffin.

He signed an extension earlier this week. Why would he sign an extension increasing his buy out if he were leaving?

Because maybe he wants to leave. But I don't know because I'm not him. And I also don't know the specific details of his agreement.

Like I said 10 million isn't shite and you are gonna lose your guy to an AD who has only been there a matter of days.
