🏈 Kiffin is putting together a pretty good staff at Ole Miss.

Saying he is miserable if he can't coach BAMA as a parody from an actor from a prison that hung himself is ok? I don't think so.

Comprehension isn't your forte is it? He used a comparison for Saban's obsession with football. He also compared him to his own father (Monte Kiffin). He said that Saban lives and breaths for football which is what makes him so good at his job. You would have to be looking for something to complain about to twist that into a negative.

If I remember right he was a thorn in his first year at tin-r-c. That was a hard fought win.

Hard fought? We pulled that one out of our arse. I was shocked we played Rammer Jammer.

 

[TideatMileHigh]

Kiffin has started running his mouth with terrible talk about Saban.

I wish I could tell you that Lane Kiffin fought the good fight, and Coach Sandusky let him be. I wish I could tell you that, but prison is no fairy tale.

So your ok with kiffin comparing CS to an old man getting out of prison and hanging himself. I don't care what he said after that because he lost me there.

You're missing the point entirely. Brooks had been incarcerated so long, that he couldn't function in the world outside of prison. Saban is so in to coaching football and it is the only world he knows......he couldn't function with out it.

Coming from a guy that worked with him for 3 years, and the rumors, we as fans hear, about how hard Saban works himself and his assistants. I think it is a pretty good analogy to explain Saban's workaholic mentality.

Don't agree with that analogy. He is a workaholic but he will adapt. Hiring kiff is just one of many examples.

I take that more as Saban would die without football, much the way Brooks had been locked up his entire life and didn't know how to handle the outside world.

Yes, I am okay with it because I know how to comprehend context...

So, you used an example of him adapting IN FOOTBALL as your example...

CNS himself has said on more than one occasion that he has no idea what he would do if he were to retire and he has also said he would be miserable and make Miss Terry and others miserable. This cancel mentality shit drives me crazy

 

[UAgrad93]

I know Coach Bryant was in piss poor health in the end, but he said that he would die without it and did a month later.

 

[EasyTider]

I found that not only fun to watch, but also peaceful and relaxing

Seems like some people just simply thrive on being outraged, no matter what. Or it's the mindset of "okay Kiffin has left his little piss ant school and is back in the SEC so I need to have reasons to hate him again."

Outrage is an exaggeration. My point was that Coach Saban helped Kiffin with his career and then when he gets a chance to take a jab at him, he does. That one was in poor taste. Saban has changed other things and has a healthy philanthropy about life. He has also helped a lot of careers. I don't see coach Saban anywhere like Brooks. That was sad and pathetic. Sorry if I hurt your feelings because I don't agree with your opinion. I can comprehend that analogy just fine. I comprehend that you wear your watch on your right wrist so you can keep it wound.

That's why I enjoy the braying around here...
