Kiffin is an amazing recruiter - up there with the best in the game.
He has shown to be a pretty great administrative guy to in planning USC's rise out of the ashes and dealing with sanctions. He created a plan and his plan is better than anything USC fans could have hoped for.
He is a good gameday coach and makes good adjustments and has his team ready to play. Pete would often have his teams sleepwalk through the 1st quarter if it wasn't a big game and stuck with something on offense even if it wasn't working...to be fair, he was mostly concerned with calling the D during the game...of which he made great adjustments at halftime - usually shutting down what the other team was doing the 2nd half as USC would roll to victory.
As a public face of a program...yes, Kiffin has problems and he doesn't have good public skills. But privately, kids seem to love playing for him. That's really all I care about because that equals results.
All that said, his first real test comes this year...now that something is actually on the line. It's too early to tell if he can actually lead a team to glory. We don't know.
Time will tell.

But y'all act like he's got some special, unique skills. There are coaches out there doing a whole lot with a lot less.
