Why would Kiffin leave Ole Miss and come to LSU?

Maybe. I cant stand HC wearing visors but i wont turn a top coach down because of a visor.

I dont want the guy.

I'm just saying that using "he's a weirdo" as one of your reasons is asinine.

We just had someone who had a terrible personality with Kelly.

Kelly was fired for things other than his personality. His personality just made it easier to bite the bullet so early.

If Kelly was as strategic, focused, hardworking, etc. as Drink, he wouldn't have been fired (as we would have won more games) and the personality wouldn't matter.

If Dork is such a hard worker than why has me never beaten an SEC team that finished with a winning conference record?

Maybe slightly but he’s an annoying overrated d bag

Basically he’s the new Dan Mullen, fitting that they had light Sabre fights while Dan was at Florida

How does he look any more nerdy than Kirby or Jimbo?

This is such a stupid stat. He beat a 9-win Tennessee team by nearly 30 points in a matchup where UT was the the higher ranked team, but what, because Tennessee finished with a 4-4 SEC record instead of 5-3 it means that this win wasn't legit?

It took Kiffin like 3 years before he got his first win vs. "an an SEC team that finished with a winning conference record", and even still he only has like 3-4 of them total. One of them came against a Shane Beamer South Carolina team that finished with 9 wins (ie: same as the Tennessee team that Missouri beat). Kiffin is 1-1 this season vs SEC teams that have a winning in-conference record.

This stat basically only tells you two things:

1) Missouri has less talent overall than Georgia, Bama, A&M, etc.
2) Missouri still hasn't had a "great" QB under Drinkwitz.

If you place a better QB on any of these last few ~10 win Missouri teams, they would have beaten an SEC "with a winning conference record". The QB is always the great equalizer, and Missouri hasn't had that difference maker yet.

He gets hate because he can't beat a top10 team in a meaningful game.
