That thing is so ugly that when it lands they're going to turn off the surveillance cameras.

College Football's Most Predictable Coaches
Lane Kiffin

What’s So Predictable: Driving a program to the ground



The Skinny

Lane Kiffin has been a black cloud for whatever team has taken a chance on him.

In 2007, the 38-year-old became the head coach of the Oakland Raiders. In a season and a half, he put together a laughable 5-15 mark before being fired.

Kiffin’s tenure featured several mishaps--including attempting a 76-yard field—leading Al Davis to claim, “I think he conned me like he conned all you people.”

It wasn’t long before the Lincoln, Nebraska, native found himself another job, becoming the head coach of Tennessee in 2009.

But just like with the Raiders, Kiffin’s tenure with the Vols was controversial. He called out Urban Meyer before even coaching a game, was involved in a hostess recruiting scandal and was a victim of a Steve Spurrier jab.

Oh, and there was the fact that he bolted Knoxville after one year to the dismay of almost everyone in the state.

Next up was USC in 2010. And although Kiffin spent a little more than three seasons at the helm, that didn’t mean it was positive.

Things began on a high note, as he led the Trojans to a 10-2 record in just his second year and had them ranked as the preseason No. 1 heading into 2012. But that’s about as good as it got.

From there, all that followed were embarrassing losses, players only meetings and getting fired in an airport parking lot after midnight.

We can only hope and pray—unless you’re an Auburn fan or Alabama hater—that his bad luck streak doesn’t continue as an assistant in Tuscaloosa.

My 8 year olds foitball team ran the hurry up and they only had 4 plays. They won every game and in the little Super Bowl opposing coach asked the ref if we had to huddle, ref is like what? This guy stops the game and calls his buddy who was one is the directors of the state league......38-6, put the phone away sparky :)

I think what they mean for us is that in 13 years we'll move up 8000....So that means w/ 26 years I'll have moved up 8000. Ugh. Great.

Regrettably, in the next half decade you will only move up 1200 of those numbers.

I hate that question, I have had it twice in the last 2 months. I can never tell if they are that blind to the career of others or they are just trying to make convesation and forget that they are sitting next to a 13 year FO's who are still in the bottom 15% of the seniority list and have another 8 years to go before they can hold the most Jr Captain position in the company.
