has deflected all of the attention away from the real a**-hole action yesterday—Miles jerking Benton’s scholly at the last minute because a 17 year-old child is now calling the shots now for the LSLosers. Miles is one lucky you-know-what because, without this BS, the media would have been all over the Benton situation and all of our 11th graders watching recruiting shows would see for themselves how untrustworthy Miles is.

since he became the coach at tn make it clear he is out of his league.
I wonder what Monte thinks about his son’s comments.
When Kiffen was announced the new head coach I thought it was a bad hire, now I know it was.
tn travels to fla and BAMA next year, and he is talking smack about both, does not make much sense….of course neither does the hire.
RTR!!!!

if you pop over to this thread on the SBNation tennessee blog Rocky Top Talk (a quality effort and well worth regular perusal, i must add) you’ll see there are folks in the volunteer state not completely pleased with their coaches deportment today. the concern over the chest beating by kiffin and the orgeron in the wake of nabbing a couple coups is pretty dead on. and it makes one consider what would be the proper reaction by a good coach after bringing in a quality haul on signing day…?

probably being thankful and indicating that you look forward to their production on the field. or pretty much what every other coach that hauled in class that made the top 25 in the rankings. hopefully, kiffin figures this out by the time he brings in a class that can break that barrier.

At least get the name right of the man who’s gonna kick your ass.

but Saban and Meyer are going to put a country boy ass whooping on KIFFIN next year in T-Town and G-Ville

Penguins live at the South Pole and polar bears live near the North Pole. Still, it’s funny. Maybe a seal would have been a better esthetic choice?

The Mobile paper’s headline today in the sports section. :)

he is a great match at UT! I mean thats just another NO class coach for a NO class school!!!

You have to wonder what a true professional like new UT assistant Eddie Gran thought as he witnessed Kiffin’s performance. There’s nothing wrong with rallying your own troops, but there’s a difference between celebrating your signing class and signing your team’s death warrant.

Bluster and bravado won’t beat Florida or Alabama. Given the take-no-prisoners approach of both Meyer and Saban, Guantanamo might be a safer place for the Vols come the fall than Gainesville or Tuscaloosa.

If we shouldn’t reconsider what Al Davis said about the guy as being prescient instead of just the spittle-flecked ramblings of a has been as was reported at the time. Maybe Al D was right all along? Kiffin is certainly proving him right.

And Orgeron, what’s he going for? Least likely to be hired for anything anywhere 2011?

. . . going so well for former USC coaches. .

What with Lame Kitten at UT and his proverbial size 9 1/2 foot (you know what THAT means?), stuck somewhere north of the crack of his ass.

Then there’s Steve Sarkisian and Nick Holt (recent Rose Bowl champ OC and DC coaches at USC) now at University of Washington.

Things have gotten so bad (recruiting violations? got some?) for Sark and Nicky, that some U-Dub fans are now calling them “Sarkheisel” and “Slick Nick” (both: rapier-like stabs at formerly disgraced/newly embraced Coach Neuheisel).

Hey? They weren’t this bad at the coaching business when they were assistants. Wait, assistants? Oye! That there might be the rub? . . . . . holding a clipboard and looking like you always gotta take a sh_t on the sidelines on gameday Saturdays IS A LOT DIFFERENT than actually REALLY COACHING A MAJOR FOOTBALL PROGRAM. (sh_t-face, not excluded)

These 3 disciples of Pete Carroll must learn a few of the subtleties that go along with being a head coach.

1. fake modesty
2. scripted humility
3. some semblance of class and decorum
4. never visit recruits at a HAIR SALON! (just saying, never know what beotch might be there getting THEIR HAIR DONE! and that’s all that needs to be said about that one)

So, there’s four. I’m sure there’s more . . . .but “eff” the Vols and Huskies! Eff ’em.

Lane Kiffin isn’t scared. If you haven’t figured that out by now? I find it hilarious that you guys feel the need to trash him, because you have nothing better to do. Yes, he may have made a bad comment on Urban Meyer, but I love this adrenaline shot that he’s given to Vol Nation, after years of Fulmer keeping his mouth shut after people made comments about his weight. You guys puff out your chest and say we’ll beat you by 50 next year, you may but we’ll go down swinging!
