Tennessee isn't exactly a failure and the USC gig was messy but the potential was there if Lane could keep his head on straight. It's been 8 years since that time.
Ut was not a failure. wasnt a success either
quote:
Napier is a program manager like Coach O. Sure he's probably smarter but he's going to be held hostage by the quality of the coordinators he hires every bit as much as O and Les Miles were. Not an ideal scenario for a Coach still largely a question mark.
You realize Napier calls the plays right and for all purposes is the O Coordinator at ULL. Nothing fricking like O at all.

To me it's not even a debate. Kiffin is a better Coach on paper and is a more proven commodity
no doubt kiffin is a better offensive coach but as HC his record doesnt show he is better than Napier, opposite actually
quote:
is a more proven commodity
yea kiffin is proven to have high highs but a bunch of mediocrity in between
quote:
Willie Taggart improved every team he was at until he went to FSU and totally face planted.
willie came from Oregon not G5.
quote:
Napier could be good but still a risk for a guy without any success besides 3 years at ULL.
both are risk and why i wouldnt have either as #1, but to me Kiffin gives you a fantastic Offense but as HC he is lacking. unorganized and doesnt pay attention to details oh and he isnt some great recruiter either when he hasnt had ED O.

Not an inspiring piece of info.

Kiffin has proven himself at 2 separate stops at a G5 and P5 school. Napier has one single stop at a G5 school. Of course Kiffin has a better HC resume. It's not close.

He never coached anywhere long enough to establish anything. You could say USC but that was a bizarre scenario.

Look at his resume BEFORE Oregon. He was at Oregon for 1 season only before jumping to FSU.

Kiffin not as much because you largely know who he is given his background and experience. Napier may have a higher ceiling but lower low.

How can you say this given Ole Miss's performance this season? This is in direct contradiction with current physical reality.
