he didn't out-recruit WAC opponents while he had maybe the most fertile recruiting ground in the WAC

Les built OSU, a BCS program, into something respectable

he accomplished a lot more before he got the LSU job than what Dooley has done before the UTenn job

lane was the main recruiter for USC, has a national profile, and assembled an amazing recruiting staff

plus he brought his dad, one of the best NFL DCs the past 15 years, to UTenn

How many on that staff have been on the brink of NCAA violations?
Any of those on the staff help recruit Bush and Lienart?

You mean take a team that made it to the SEC championship 2 years ago and barely break .500 and get some moral victories??

he improved their record vs 2008 and turned crompton into a dependable QB

compared to dooley, who is getting rewarded for his own moral victories (against LSU and Boise, not Florida and Bama)

Bottom line: Nobody knows at this point if Dooley or Kiffin is the better coach. Both are unproven at coaching
