I don't understand the lovefest with Kiffin.

Agree. He’s had too many huge opportunities in his now long arse career and has won nothing anywhere. Just has a reputation for being an “offensive guru” because he doesn’t run a Les Miles up-the-gut on 3rd and long for a 1 yard gain offense?

Hmmmmmm…..

Meh. He had that rep(deservedly) in his younger days, but he’s far more stable now. If he comes to LSU, the only place he’d leave for is the NFL, and I don’t think he’s interested. He would have tried the coordinator route by now.
Kiffin might not be THE answer, but he’s the hottest guy available with a lot of upside and solid track record. If LSU doesn’t sign him, whoever does (except ole wish; there’s only so much juice to squeeze out of that turd) will be seen as on the fast track.

He never stays long at any place. He's the grass is greener elsewhere coach. He has never head coached a team to the BCS or CFP. Many LSU fans here denigrate Miles for the coeds rumor and innuendo, but turn a blind eye to Kiffins rumored coeds escapades. Why is that? Saban, Hartline, and Golesh are much better candidates over Kiffin imo.

OK, remove Saban for a moment

Now you’re quickly down to two coaches who have far less head, coaching experience than Kiffin

No, we don’t know about the rumors about Kiffin and the coeds but at least if true he is an unmarried man not a married man. There is a difference I would say.

Still bad but nonetheless it’s not adultery against his wife.

Kiffin did have a girlfriend for four years that he recently broke up and it’s rumored that he’s getting back together with his ex-wife

I think that’s an incredible development that I’m sure makes their children extremely happy

Kiffin has stopped drinking (5years) and he works out and he eats really clean and he looks better than he has in years at the age of 50

So he’s got the best résumé out there. It’s filled with success and failure, indeed.

But now that he has sort of rebuild himself now having the opportunity at a place like LSU would give him the best chance to achieve the pinnacle in coaching

He worked for Pete Carroll. He worked for Nick Saban. His dad was a lifetime NFL coach.

Kiffin has a remarkable amount of experience and knowledge

There isn’t anyone like him available…

He’s finally ready for prime time

Never forget Saban fired Kiffin before a NC game

If he was fired. He can’t

and lost

because Kiffin's focus was elsewhere

So Saban lost a natty because he wasn't focused and has his mind on his kiffy boo.

LSU fans are the bestest. Not a dumber group of people out there.

Hartline, and Golesh are much better candidates over Kiffin imo.

Kiffin was indeed released of his duties prior to Natty……. What are you disagreeing with? And yes, it cost Bama/Saban a Natty cause they would have won otherwise…..Sark sucks

We've all seen Kiffin's (age 50) upside as a HC with the Raiders, Tn, USC, FAU, and Ole Miss.

I'd rather see LSU take a chance with Hartline age 38 or Golesh age 41, as the better way to go. These guys could easily be here for the next 10-15 years. You can never say that about Kiffin.

How many SEC West titles does he have at Ole Miss? How many SEC conference championships does he have at Ole Miss?

The only reason he was let go by Saban was because he accepted a head coaching job. Let’s not act like he suddenly became flaky again. He wanted the chance to Coach his own team again so he made the same choice that many coordinators make year after year.
