+1 Thanks for posting...not ashamed to admit it did brighten my day. This just proves Mike Hamilton hasn't been the only one to buy the smoke and mirrors. I doubt he's ever a head coach again after this gig.

How can he talk about kids lack of commitment when he convinced some UT commits to break theirs and not to enroll at UT when he was taking the USC job, or when he tried to get some of them to switch once he was there. Hypocritical as all get out if you ask me. He is truly starting to reap what he sewed.

Question is, why is he still head coach, if it is as bad as it is?

Because USC knows that no one else will take over this train wreck right now. Oh wait.... Dooley is available. Sound familiar??

Just makes me glad he decided to leave us when he did. If he had stuck around, we'd be burning mattresses in front of the Athletic Department because we WANTED him to leave.

From the article... "How else do you think Kiffin got the Tennessee job after imploding in less than two seasons in the NFL? The Vols, desperate and embarrassed by the painful firing of Phil Fulmer, turned to the guy whose resume wasn’t remotely worthy—and who had failed spectacularly in his only head-coaching job."
Yes we did :( and were naive enough to believe he was a winner when his record already showed otherwise.

You know, Al Davis was about as crazy as they come but he hit the nail on the head with Kiffy.

I know i really shouldn't wish for someone to fail. I know that's a terrible thing to want for someone...but i just can't help it. Not only did he screw us over, but he's been so cocky and arrogant with no results that I can't help but wish failure upon him. He doesn't do himself any favors while coaching, while interviewing, or simply existing. I hope that he gets fired and never coaches another game again.

There are exceptions for wishing failure on someone, and IMO he meets those exceptions and then some.
