So Mike, Tell Me Three Adjectives That Describe You
Troy Nunes Is An Absolute Magician — ... While we continue to look over our list of prospects, there is one person we can (almost) officially cross off.  Soon-to-be Tennessee head coach Lane Kiffin.  I personally never thought Kiffin would choose SU, although I was fairly sure he'd end up in Washington.  But what the hell do I know? ...

Lane Kiffin hired at Tennessee
Fanblogs.com — This weekend's worst-kept secret has become this week's most debated coaching move: Tennessee hires Lane Kiffin as head coach. “During our process, Lane Kiffin stood out,” athletic director Mike Hamilton said. “He has great football bloodlines and has been part of a strong football tradition since birth.” Kiffin remembers being surrounded as a child by chalkboards scrawled with defensive plays and spending weekends in pregame meetings with his dad’s teams. “The experience has been unbelievable and then to combine that with still being young ...

Lane Kiffin Press Conference: “Singing “Rocky Top” all night long after we beat Florida next year, it’s going to be a blast”
The Critical Fanatic — [image] Aside from Layla Kiffin’s introduction to the blogosphere , Lane Kiffin made quite an impression during his press conference yesterday announcing the new head coach of the Tennessee Volunteers. Kiffin met with the recruits Sunday night and they seemed pumped about the change. “Coming away he left a really good first impression on me.

When you’re the head coach of Tennessee, ...

I told you he was still alive
Stadium Drives - A College Sports Daily - Blog — There has been plenty of speculation, verbal jabbing, and -- well -- silence (in the case of Urban Meyer, anyway) regarding Lane Kiffins first 7 months at the helm of the Big Orange.   I was reading an AP story dissecting these phenomena and realized 2 things. One, Kiffin has yet to really mention Phil Fulmer or the 2008 season in any detail. Two, former UT coach and Fulmer-nemesis Johnny Majors has spoken more about UT football in the last half-year than he did in the previous 10.  And yes, after retiring from Pitt in 1996 from coaching, he now lives in Knoxville. Here's his latest quip, talking about the Kiffin bravado, “I ...

Stray Bullets from MotSaG’s West Coast Bunker
Men of the Scarlet and Gray — The week of impending doom has passed us by and clubbed us like a baby seal.  A tough loss to USC and an apparently media-unfriendly unimpressive win against Toledo (Man..How bad is Colorado…really?) equates to a steady drop in the polls.  Illinois is just around the corner to start conference play.  Which Juice Williams will we see?  2007 Juice or Juice from any other year? Dont you just love College Football? Locked…Loaded….Here we go! Orson Swindle decided to visit the grand metropolis of C-Bus to take in the USC game..and writes an elegant and true-to-life piece on sites, scenes, and peeps for a typical game day ...
