Saban's endorsement of Kiffin as HC worked. His perfection is sickening

Seeing Kiffin in Baton Rouge is one of the last thing Saban wanted to see, so he starts saying how Kiffin has grown and is ready to be a head coach again. It worked. This Bama success in every facet of football is just making me not care about college football.

Let's aim for Canada, Helfrich, or Briles now.

He was going to be a candidate regardless of what Nick Saban said. Jesus.

The REC is too strong and too powerful of an organization. They implement their strategies with an iron fist.

Honestly I've grown from frustrated about it to a point where I'm envious and respect the guy as a coach and leader.

Rather than crying about it, we should expect more from our administration. Sadly, we had people beating their chests about promoting our Dline coach bc he beat a bunch of bad teams. That mentality that accepts mediocrity is what I blame more than anything. It's why Louisiana is in the shape it's in as a whole

I hope this doesn't offend the admin. If so go ahead and ban me. The crap you guys allow to be posted by bama fans and I get warned for saying orgeron is perceived as a dumb Cajun??? Get a grip

No, his perfection was knowing that Kiffen would be gone after this season so he brings in Sark as a consultant to lock him up before another team in need of an OC can get him.

Saban is always 6 moves ahead of everyone

I doubt Saban cares. I also doubt he would endorse someone without reason. I also think he would be more concerned about the unknown coming here but what I really think is Saban is not concerned with what offense we run...its not like its going to be an offense he has never seen. Bottom line is he probably doesn't put much thought into what we do.

Exactly. Like I said, how about we strive to be the best instead of bitching about it

Grow a damn pair and be a fan. Stop being so insecure. And if you don't care, why are you posting?

The hubris of the LSU fanbase never ceases to amaze me. Every move Saban makes is calculated with LSU in mind in y'all's little fantasy. It's time to move on, he doesn't care about you anymore. He married a supermodel and you're the ex girlfriend that got fat

Probably offered UH a satellite camp if they hired him.

Saban knew coming back to Bama he'd have to derail the LSU freight train. He's not only derailed it, but is bombing construction sites where their trying to build a new one. He aint dumb

Ummmm Bama insiders were reporting that Saban specifically did not want Kiffin at LSU. I am sure he wouldnt want him at any division rival.

This really is true.

Good analogy. The sooner LSU realizes this, the sooner we can get on with it.

To whoever said Kiffin would've gotten a head coach no matter what, you're exactly right. I completely agree. You seriously think the only reason he did was because of Nick Saban?
