Title: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: Chechem on November 30, 2016, 06:33:10 AM We should know more by Saturday, but it's looking like Kiffin is heading to LSU.
:wall: Hopefully he'll stay until the playoffs are done. https://www.seccountry.com/lsu/coaching-rumors-75-percent-chance-lsu-hires-lane-kiffin-as-oc http://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/reports-orgeron-retains-dc-dave-aranda-for-lsu-staff-attention-turns-to-lane-kiffin/ Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: 2Stater on November 30, 2016, 06:40:13 AM I'm still not convinced he'll go, especially with more and more HC positions opening up. He would be a good fit for at Oregon, I would think, and there will be a lot of openings in the west before it's over.

I think that's more like 50/50, but 75% chance that he leaves Alabama this year. Coach Saban said he hadn't discussed it with Lane yet, so it prolly won't be until the weekend: Saturday or (more likely) Sunday. Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely.

If he leaves before the playoffs then all the discussion of Kiffin's maturity is still premature. I just don't see any benefit to him doing that. Sure, he can get an earlier start on recruiting, but it's still abandoning ship, and a bad look for him. He's burned too many bridges in his career as it is. Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: Catch Prothro on November 30, 2016, 07:31:17 AM I'm not putting much credence into these stories until Kiffin and/or Saban say something. In the past, didn't Orgeron work for Kiffin, and not the other way around? ???

Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: ricky023 on November 30, 2016, 08:19:28 AM This would be the dumbest thing ever to leave a championship program and go to a lower level team and be the same rank. My question would now who would replace him? RTR!

If he doesn't stay for the playoff games, does Sark step in as interim OC ?
Kiff has a lot riding on this move and how he handles it. Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: lstephen on November 30, 2016, 09:12:11 AM With the Oregon and Houston openings (so far) I think Kiffin is committing himself to permanent OC status if he doesn't get a HC job this year. Especially if he leaves the BAMA OC position for the LSU OC job.
I keep hearing rumors that he and Coach Saban don't play well together. Anyone know anything factual about this? Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: bama57 on November 30, 2016, 09:29:47 AM why take a lateral move with so many head coaching jobs opening up?

It may not happen, but believe me: Kiffin has an excellent offer and is considering it. Lots of chatter from friends in Tuscaloosa about it. :popcorn2: Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely.

Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: SUPERCOACH on November 30, 2016, 12:20:18 PM Of course Kiffin could go to LSU or somewhere else. I am fairly certain that Clay Travis and Bruce Feldman are not in the loop though. They are just speculating.
If he has an offer he can't refuse to be the LSU OC, then I can't imagine he would leave before the season is over. He would follow Kirby's example from last year. And Kirby was going to be a head coach, not a coordinator. Do you think he would really turn down the chance for another national championship so he could get a head start at being the OC at another school? I don't think so. So, I anticipate that he will be here through the rest of the season. After that, who knows. Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely.

Post by: lstephen on November 30, 2016, 07:29:08 PM I'd rather he stay through the playoffs for a lot of reasons.

Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: ricky023 on November 30, 2016, 07:32:11 PM I trust CNS that is why we have been in the CFP ever since it started but he brought Kiffin in before hand and let him look around. I wonder if Sark is doing the same thing but if Kiff goes to Oregon as HC wouldn't Sark go with him? I am as confused a mouse in a small rat trap with no cheese. RTR!
Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: bamaphil on November 30, 2016, 11:49:54 PM I think we all knew this was probably Kiffen's last year with Bama. I'd just prefer he not go to an SEC West rival. Especially if he takes our 4-star QB commit to Baton Rouge with him. LSU offered the kid a scholarship yesterday.

Most everyone expected Kiffin to leave after 2-3 years. But few expected him to strengthen LSU by leaving Alabama. As far as 'why make a lateral move', it seems Kiffin wants a change. Lots of speculation about why. Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely.

Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: ricky023 on December 01, 2016, 07:57:35 AM Well the only reason I can see him going to lsu is to have the chance to beat CNS who was the only one to help him pick up the pieces after sucha horrendous firing the way his life was going in the coaching market.

Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: ricky023 on December 01, 2016, 10:58:37 AM What about Baylor? I've heard no names mentioned there. RTR!
Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: McBaman on December 01, 2016, 11:14:24 AM We seem to go through the Kiff to (insert name of school) rumors after every season. The only thing that's different this year is the Orgeron factor and the idea of Kiff moving to another OC position instead of HC. We've had Kiff for three years. To me, any longer would be just good fortune on our part.
What we do know is that SEC mandates that ass't coaches be available to the press after the SECCG, so you can be sure Kiff will be asked on the record about all these rumors. Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: 2Stater on December 02, 2016, 06:49:12 AM Now the word is, if Houston offers Kiffin, he gone. Who knows? :dunno:
Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: SUPERCOACH on December 02, 2016, 07:00:05 AM He is going to have his hands full with being the HC at Oregon and Houston, and the OC at LSU. :dunno:
Are these sources the same guys that said "Saban to Texas for 100 million"? The fact that he is going to all of these places just shows me that none of these people actually know what they are talking about and are just speculating. He may end up leaving, but no need for concern until an official announcement is made. The fan base has worried about this every year since before he even arrived. We know through logic that at least 66% of these rumors are going to turn out to be false, if not 100% of them. Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: bama57 on December 02, 2016, 07:30:18 AM where ever he goes I wish him the best! I got to say when we hired him I was shocked and puzzled. But, living in Tennessee I truly enjoyed the biG oranges fans meltdown. He ran the offense like a chess game and nothing was more enjoyable than watching him raise his arms in TD stance when the ball was snapped!I kind of hope he stays in the SEC so he can bring us some competition and challenges
Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: ricky023 on December 02, 2016, 08:58:39 AM Well I have a better RUMOR than you all. I was told last evening and no I will not and can not say but it came from a source I truly believe in that CLK doesn't have a choice this year. He is gone regardless of who, what, where, why, or how. Now let that soak in cause it hit me like a bombshell.
Now I did spell rumor in capitals but I didn't know if anybody else had heard of this sequence and yes I know we are suppose to post links, and not rumors. If this over the rules of the board please moderator remove it for me. I don't want to break any rules for Heaven's sake but this person was pretty adamant and I know well enough he tells me something I know it was not made up. Just saying. RTR!

To me this Houston report sounds more credible than any of the other rumors floating out there, except maybe LSU. If Kiff tell CNS that this is a job he'd like to have, then I have no trouble thinking CNS would try to help him get it. CNS is a pretty good character reference. It's good for Kiff's thinking to get an interview like this. Hope the possibility of an HC job will cause him to pause in taking the LSU position. Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely.

We replaced the best DC in the country last year and the defense got better this year. The offense is going to be a beast next year regardless of the OC. Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely.

Sark is definitely out; Coach Saban moving on. Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: bamaphil on December 08, 2016, 07:18:17 AM USA Today reporting that Kiffin to Houston is all but official.
Quote Houston has decided on Alabama offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin to be its next football coach, pending a Thursday meeting at which school President Renu Khator will have to give the final OK, two people with knowledge of the situation told USA TODAY Sports. Those people spoke on the condition of anonymity because the school had not yet announced the move. http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/aac/2016/12/08/lane-kiffin-hired-houston-cougars/95128236/ Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: ricky023 on December 08, 2016, 07:28:34 AM anonymity Well I wonder why people tell things they are not suppose to, but they do and then afraid for somebody to know it. Sounds kinda like untrustworthy people don't it. RTR!

A week ago it was likely; now NOT so much. He's just hanging out there like a slab of meat. LSU has to convince him now. :popcorn2: Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely.

I don't blame him because as we all know "O" ain't gonna last very long and then he becomes the HC he has to face up to the mentor like CNS. Not a good thought I would think. RTR! Title: Re: Kiffin to LSU looking more likely. Post by: Chechem on December 12, 2016, 05:04:46 PM Kiffin was leaving, willingly or not.
LSU offered him $$$ and all the fringelets. Houston AD wanted him, but the Prez nixed it and convinced others to look elsewhere. Florida Atlantic was the only viable option left. BYE! :wave: |
