The most fun part of all this

Is the fact that the horizon for this program is so insanely bright. Kiffin had to turn over nearly this entire roster, and had one spring and fall camp to get the entire offense up to speed in his system apart from Winnie. He also had to spend the money at every position group to elevate the talent level on the roster, rather than being able to trust his own practices and evaluations.
Can you imagine what this machine will look like when he has year over year retention? When every skill position player is as comfortable within the offense in week 1 as Winnie Watkins? With Kiffins eye for talent, when he has guys with the talent of Green etc with multiple years in the offense?
This isn’t to say we won’t be a heavy portal team, but being able to develop from within through high school recruiting is part of the reason Lane took the job, and he isnt going to need to go out to rebuild the core of his team every offseason. He is going to build this into a freaking powerhouse.

Predicting Kiffin wins a championship here and bots to the NFL. We will be jaded lovers just like the rest

Why would we care if he wins a championship?
Honestly though. Do we really think Lane wants the NFL again? His personality fits in CFB.
NFL coaches don’t get near the publicity or perks that big time college ones do.

His personality and coaching style is a better fit for college in my opinion, of course you could be right but he has already gotten his taste of the NFL.

Saban has his ear and would caution him about leaving LSU for the NFL. He’s stated over and over that was his biggest regret of his career and I think LK would strongly consider his advice

Only thing he could do that would really hurt would be going to Bama.

Still surreal he’s on the sidelines for us.

His mentor, Nick Saban, will keep him from making his mistake.

Hmmm. I smell sour grapes. Maybe

I bet Bama fans thought the same thing when Saban showed up there.

With Saban as a mentor, that will flatten those urges.

The key is either keeping Blake Baker or hiring someone as good as him on the other side of the ball. Look what he did with Pete Golding as DC...

I think Kiffin's recruiting vision is damn near perfect. He's not looking for players to develop. He's getting the players that have the best chance of getting on the field and succeeding now. That means he's after the top HS prospects and some others diamonds in the rough. He wants the best transfer prospects too. They will join the best players from the previous year. Anybody that needs to develop can go somewhere else and we'll grab them from the portal later. That's why our team is so deep. Even if some don't pan out, there's plenty of competition.
