I love the part when he says that he knew when he visited 3 weeks ago and he told the tenn coaches then. Hmmmmmm....I wonder what they told him to do with that info??? Maybe to keep it to himself so they could lockup other recruits such as Myles.

Well, here's how he handled a Florida commit. I can only assume something similar happened with Jackson. To me, this is MUCH worse than accusing Meyer of cheating. To do it is one thing, to brag about it, however, is astonishing. From Chris Low's blog on ESPN:

Kiffin also delighted in telling the crowd how the Vols, specifically assistant Eddie Gran, simply outmaneuvered the Gators in getting Richardson to leave the state of Florida. Tennessee's coaches told Richardson to keep telling everybody that he was still committed to Florida, which he had been since last May.

"You can't understand how hard this is to get done," Kiffin said. "Eddie had this set up at 7 o'clock in the morning. They (Richardson's aunts) got the papers signed by the kid. They didn't go do it at the school because they knew somebody at the school was going to screw it up. The fax machine wouldn't work, or they would have changed the signatures, all the things that go on in Pahokee (Fla.) now. The aunts took it over to a junior high, found a fax machine that worked and faxed them over to us at 7 o'clock, and I kept it in a drawer till their 1 o'clock press conference."
