i'm thinking the vols should become the 'braying asses' with their new coach.

they ran off phil fulmer for this guy?! i was never a fulmer fan, but c'mon. at least get a guy who knows what he's doing.

These are ridiclous violations. The NCAA simply looks past Saban and company absolutely just paying off families yet they have rules against fog machines. The rules are a joke and I wish AZ would start cheating and paying off guys in football like they do in basketball.

Another violation occurred when a fog machine was used as a recruit entered the field at Neyland Stadium during his official visit on Jan. 9.

Under NCAA recruiting rules, schools are prohibited from simulating a game experience for recruits during official visits.

They were getting the recruit ready for the fog machine ahead
of the actual practice used to acclimate the active players
to the stress and game situation readiness the fog machine
simulates...

this guy has always rubbed me the wrong way, he just seems way too cocky for his own good, like a spoiled rich kid or something. And we all know daddy is gonna be running the show down there, ol Lane is just gonna be the face. Hope he spends less time w/the vols then he did w/ the raiders

signing day was last tuesday and kiffin has a kid that wants out of his LOI already. claims kiffin lied to him and his family.
i think kiffin is in WAY over his head in the SEC. he is swimming with the sharks now. not the pansies of the PAC-10.

that's it in a nutshell, he's in over his head. and yes cannon, absolutely they need to revisit some of their rules.
however, i just found it ironic that this bozo comes out swinging at urban meyer, and he's the one breaking rules-absurd as they may be. like the sec said the other day regarding fla and kiffins comments, we expect our coaches to know the rules and regs. he obviously doesn't.

Do you still think he is in way over his head? I think he is doing a pretty darn good job with this team. I'm sure Phil Fulmer wouldn't be doing any better. He's not winning many games, but he's played Florida and Alabama way closer than anybody thought he would.

Granted he is doing this with Fulmer's recruits. It remains to be seen if he can recruit, but I think he is silencing his critics a bit, so far.

As a Gator fan, I can't stand the guy. He stole our recruits.

I remember all the crap Houston Nutt got with Arkansas.
Now he turns into a genius with Mississippi.

And the world turns.

Gee, I wonder where L Kiffin got the fog machine and mock press conference idea? You never here about P Carroll and almighty USC doing anything wrong.
BTW, UT already had reported 7 NCAA violations under Fulmer just this year but LK gets all the heat for his 2.

The coaching staff that UT has assembled is second to none in College FB. Its a who's who list of top recuiters. They will have a top 3 signing gay class the next few years. In part because LK can sell them on the thin depth charts where as UF and Alabama are fully stocked.

I guess I need to proofread.

They will be gay, as in partying in the streets out of excitement.

2 years away from what? How many weeks were they in the top 3 in the polls? They held their own with the Nat'l Champs in the SEC Championship game.

they have to replace 4 OL, starting QB, 1000 yd RB. not enough depth in the OL and not showing up to play, helped get them embarrassed in the sugar bowl. the LBs next season will be Fr and Sophs. the DBs are small. 7-4 at best next year.

RMFT!

I have gray hair and a slight case of arthritis...but they won and that's all that matters. Never mind the questionable play calling by the OC, McElroy didn't turn the ball over and Cody absolutely won the ball game for a dead tired team.

It was the best football game I've ever attended because I got to see Vols fans crying. It made me believe for a short second that there is an invisible man in the sky that hates Tennessee as much as I do.

seeing ut fans cry had to be an excellent sight.
i bet that man in the sky still wears a houndstooth hat.
