Kiffin to FAU??

The problem with hiring Lane Kiffin as your head coach is that Lane Kiffin becomes your head coach. And then all hell breaks out until he leaves.

There's a reason he's going to Florida Atlantic.
 
For $1 million it's worth it. He can recruit well so if you need to fire him and bring in a new guy, you have a stocked roster. Roll the dice on NCAA penalties. Can anyone say with a straight face that they trust Lane Kiffin. You can't. It is impossible.

Do you think Lane finishes next September still at FAU or will he complete the entire season? If he scores a dozen TDs by week 3, look for that resume to heat up.

Being a Raider fan, I know this all too well. He is not his father. He has tried and failed in a few places. With so many openings at UConn's level and he ends up at FAU should tell you quite a bit.

It's definitely worth the risk if you're FAU.

But clearly, the higher-level schools with coaching openings did the math and decided he was not worth it.

I'd prefer him to Diaco, but that doesn't make him a good coach - I suspect he's actually a pretty good coordinator who isn't bright enough to make the jump. Kinda like....

At this point, I'd re-hire Pasqualoni if it the absolute only way to get rid of Diaco. Yes, that's how little I think of Bob Diaco's ability to make any "easy fix".

If you'd rehire Paul P, you'd rehire Edsall then right? Seriously the man is doing nothing right now. Front office of the Lions. Bring back Edsall then.

Who is on video punching a woman. No thanks. I would rather lose than sink low enough to have a guy like that on the team.

We had 3 guys on this team in trouble with the law the past year

What's worse -

Assaulting a woman?
Assaulting a senior citizen?
Assaulting a minor?

All are horrible and inexcusable - and I wouldn't want to support those people or have them at my university (athlete or not).
My opinion is some crimes are forgivable and some are not. Underage drinking - not too serious. Violence - way more serious. I like that our university takes character issues seriously.

@jazyj No. Read the comment thread. You are engaging in an argument, all I was doing was replying to another user that stated Kiffin got a recruit (and he left out the part of why he is ex-fsu) which I believe is an important detail - don't you?

I dislike violent crime - all of it. Sorry, but that is my opinion.

@jazyj How is defending women's rights and pointing out the differences in criminal severity an argument?

What you insinuated was that there was a level of crime that you were willing to tolerate, there are players on this team being accused of assault yet you just brushed it off because they didn't assault women

So Cespedes, in your eyes, should be off the team? Violence is the charge.

Underage drinking to you isnt serious - hmmmm - only if it led to a violent crime. DUI underage is ok in your world because it isnt a violent.
