Perhaps they see the way he left Oakland, Knoxville, LA, and Tuscaloosa and want no part of his bullshite?

Apparently his rep in the coaching world is low.

They have only had one coaching search since 1963 and they hired a bum after only a 4 day search. It's a rotten fan base and a incompetent athletic department that hasn't got a frickin clue. Bob Stoops. So frickin stupid

I like Kiffin, but he has not been great anywhere as a head coach. He is not terrible but the hype does not match what he actually is. He was born on 3rd base, that’s it.

He was brought up on a FSU podcast and they were very anti Kiffin. A source who worked with him said he was unorganized and called him the "white Willie Taggart".

Why would anyone want that dumpster fire of a HC is the better question.

FSU is too proud to “settle” for Kiffin

What's to great about him?
He was mediocre at Tennessee and USC.
He's won a lot of C-USA games, but when he steps outside that league ooc to AAC or P5 it's a debacle.

Because FSU doesn't want to take another chance right now. They became an elite program, but another bad hire would be kind of devastating right now.

I said in another thread on this board that I wouldn't be surprised if Kiffin ended up at Alabama after Saban retires, which is different than I expect it, which I don't.

Kiffin needs to change his lifestyle. Programs like Alabama or even FSU won't take a chance on a wild and crazy playboy type. He needs to settle the frick down and prove that he's focus in on being a great football coach, and not just an entertaining guy that is also a good coach.

If he does this, he could become a very rich man.
