re: Matt Mascona's surprising suggestion for OC if Cam bolts...

Kiffen is legit. He took and under manned UT team and would have beat Saban if the Frickin refs would have called a penalty for fat mount Cody taking his helmet off!! Dude can call some good plays and excels in creating mismatches. BTW our offense is the worse I've ever seen at creating mismatches.

Anybody that says he's not a good OC are just fooling themselves. Both stints at USC, Tennessee stint and Bama, he has produced successful offenses.

USC in 2005 he had the #2 scoring offense with all those stars on there like Leinart at QB, Bush and LenDale at RB and Steve Smith and Dwyane Jarrett at WR. Even when he lost that star power at QB and RB after that year, they still finished with a top 20 scoring offense and JD Booty was very successful in it. His second stint at USC was at least successful on offense as well.

At Tennessee he more than doubled their offensive output the before. Crompton finished with 2800 pass yards and 27 TDs on 58.3% after being pretty garbage the year before.

You all know what he has done at Bama. Blake Sims, a QB turned RB, turned seldom used backup QB broke Alabama records in total yards, total TDs, and passing yards, among others. This year they averaged a modest 227 yards passing per game with 68% cmp and 22 TDs to 10 ints. That's with a true freshman WR, a 1st year starter WR, a 1st year starting JUCO transfer WR, and a seldom used TE as their top 4 pass catchers.


He would dominant with LSU's talent, but Miles likes puppet OCs. He likes guys that are either passed their prime, or weren't really that good in the first place.
