Glad Kiffin is wanting to stay.. hope he can start a trend of potential P5 coaches staying at the G5 level.. LK vs SL could be a very interesting potential match up for years. 

LK and SL are in HC spots in fertile recruiting grounds, and the programs just need donor support.

So is someone just having some fun with his Wikipedia page?:

”Lane Monte Kiffin (born May 9, 1975) is an American football coach who is currently the head football coach at Mississippi State University.”

I've heard he's in serious talks... via rumor

Can he take that dirt bag briles out of conference when he goes?

Seems to be his plan

I can guarantee you Kiffin will not be taking the Miss State job.  Mullen pretty much did as much as you can with that program.  And no need to talk about Starksville.  I don't see him leaving quite yet.  Don't forget he's made a bunch of money already which means taking the job won't be the main concern, the main concern will be can he win and be successful at any new job.   He can wait it out and as one of your posters said above Florida is not a bad place recruiting wise to wait for greener pastures.

Second tier conference schools need sign up K just like they did Leach and in the past Mangino at Kansas. They can't compete going the standard route!

One program that is coming up is UCF

They could be looking at Kiffin. And he still gets to stay in Florida and not be in a pressure cooker. Probably gets a little more money and they have a good team coming back next year. 

It's a step up?  Yes.  Is it big enough of a step up?  I don't think so.  UCF is a great job, but not a power 5.  Fact of the matter is if Kiffin last game is December 2nd I will be totally at peace with it.  8-0 in conference and a championship!!!   I am not really worried about it.  It's funny the national media on the story.  You put Kiffin in the story and it will get an extra 100k hits.  He has the luxury to wait it out.  UCF in my opinion would be a better job that Miss State, but not big enough for him to jump.

ALL?  Maybe not, they just tried to hire Greg Schiano.  I would say that means Kiffin is way down TN list.

He may be the only guy they could get after yesterday. He'd leave FAU today if they called.

A fan from another school making rational, logical posts? Weird. *shiver*

Sorry about that!  Another point leaving for UCF makes no sense for 1.  Not being a big enough step up, he can replicate UCF in Boca.  2.  It plays into his rep of 1 and done if he moves to Orlando.  He's either in Boca for 2 to 4 years or he moves to a good P5 job.  I don't see a good power 5 job this year left for him.

IF The fan base would love it looking at the comments they make to his Twitter.  But  I believe the big donors hold grudges and they won't write a check to him.  TN has sailed.  But I agree IF they called he would go.

I don't know what's wrong with Starkville. Spent a few days there last year and it seemed like an awesome little town. They love MSU football. Half of them are now Cowboys fans because of Dak.

      Surrendering ourselves to a G5 playoff would be disastrous. It would give the P4 all the ammo they need to effectively remove the automatic bid for the highest ranked G5 champ. The correct solution, in today's environment, is to maintain the automatic G5 bid for the main playoffs and have a mixed G5/P4 NIT style tournament as Pernetti suggested. Don't take, add. Wouldn't be a bad idea to allocate future "NIT" and playoff spots per conference based on their previous performances. They do this in Europe for their European tournaments. Each league gets a coefficient rating based on the previous 5 years performance in European competitions. Not performing? You lose spots. Performing? You gain spots. So you know, the ACC going 1-9 so far, the Big12 going 2-7 back in 2022, the SEC going 6-8 and ACC going 2-4 both in 2021 would have some affect on that rating and future potential spots in the playoffs and NIT. No reason the ACC should get 2 spots next year considering this year's playoffs. The rating would just ensure transparency.

      Because the ever present lie of “we could be next” keeps G5 athletic directors, coaches, and fan bases docile. Keep the system just shy of outright exclusion of G5 programs and you can slowly strip away access while claiming that wasn’t the plan all along. It’s why the Power Ball lottery is so popular. Even though the chances of winning are exponentially small for everyone (the G5 programs), everyone will point to that one lady in a far off trailer park (Boise) who hit it big!

      Women at Wichita State (12/29/24)

      Time to see how good or bad this conference is. The women (8-4) travel north to face Wichita State (6-7) in the AAC opener. We beat the Lady Shockers in Denton last year, 72-68. At 8-4, the women are tied with ECU for third best nonconference record in the league. Only UTSA (9-2) and UAB (9-3) are better. However, at 17-7, UNT has the best combined men's and women's basketball record of any program in the AAC. Game is at 1pm on ESPN+.
