🏈 Update: Kiffin to FAU (Bama OC through playoffs)

[Sgt. Lincoln Osiris]

Speaking of OU and their offense... How the heck did they get 2 players nominated for the Heisman? 2? That doesn't even make sense to me. I've not even heard of the WR. How does a player like Allen not get in ahead of that WR? I can't remember 2 guys making the final, from the same team and same side of the ball, ever. And from a 2 loss team at that...

Bush and Linehart in 04?

ETA: Just checked, and AP and Sean White from OK were also finalists in 04.

Everybody's favorite, Dan Wolken, reporting that Kiffin to Houston will be announced this afternoon or tomorrow.

Now we wonder who leaves with him and when?

Lane Kiffin picked as next Houston coach, per report

i don't understand the houston move... i guess i'm missing something. I figured he would hold out for a lower level SEC team or maybe mid-tier pac12, or big 10.

It's a Sexton deal. I'm sure he'll be paid.

Great recruiting area with little travel needed.

 

[TUSKtimes]

Some Houston fans not sure Kiffin will be there long enough for the ink to dry on his signature. But I am curious about that buyout too.

I'd be shocked if he's there for more than two years. He'll win a bunch of games, score a bunch of points, recruit some great TX players, possibly even get them into a New Years Six Bowl and then when Ole Miss fires Hugh Freeze or LSU fires Hee Haw he'll be back in the SEC.

If all this, on the job training, has paid off for Kiffin I would agree. The letters AAC pretty much guarantees this job to be a stepping stone gig and there isn't a big enough buyout clause that can alter that reality.

 

[rick4bama]

Has he been hired? I got a notice on my phone saying Houston has hire him? Any trust about this?

The powers that be are meeting today to review the candidates. No offer has been made yet.

Looks like someone is getting called out about "inside information." LMAO

Will Sark be the new OC?

 

[TUSKtimes]

Kiffin is new HC at UH

Not sure if they are simply regurgitating or they have new light, but the Lane train to Houston seems to be hanging in there.

Houston closing in on Lane Kiffin as next coach

 

[Sgt. Lincoln Osiris]

Well, we appreciate Coach Joey Freshwater and wish him many wins as coach of the Coogs.

A reflective look at all he's done for us:

Only happens to him on days that end in Y.

This site and possibly TD (I don't frequent that one) are a hard on for Boz but he gets quite a bit right too... Off the top of my head this season he was accurate on Hurts, Blake Barnett transfer, Shank Taylor injury, Blake S running scout QB, all before I heard it anywhere else... And I'm sure some other stuff too.

I bust his balls quite a bit but a lot of people never say shit when he's right.
