I see nothing wrong with it. I just wish it'd been a 2-3 years from now. Anyone not thinking he was drooling over the chance to take over USC would be crazy. When Carroll stepped down, I was worried. He'll do a good job there.

whats funny, is this is a smart move.
UT has fallen to the wayside in the SEC, Florida and Bama are the SEC hot schools, then LSU.
UT is an after thought. Whats even funnier is all the Tech fans cracking jokes

USC > UT > VT in programs.

you cant argue with that, 2 of those 3 have won natl titles

the one who hasnt starts with V and ends with a T.

USC is the premier team of the Pac 10, Bama and Florida is of the SEC and Texas and Oklahoma is of the Big 12.

Who are some possible candidates for the UT job now?

I agree.

Leech to Tennessee?

Could UT adapt to that style of offense?
I think he'd do great,esp in the SEC with their line it up and run it mindset.

the one that starts with a V and ends with a T throttled UT in their bowl game, has a staff that has mostly been in tact for 20 years...doesn't have football and basketball players facing jail time...didn't hire a high profile coach, only to have him bolt after one season...hasn't had to suffer through bowl-less seasons (plural)

and most importantly neither USC or UT have won 10+ games every year for the past 6 years, but they both played someone who has!

It doesn't surprise me Kiffin went to U$C. What does is he went with the hammer possibly ready to fall on the USC FB program. Why do you think the other potentail coaches backed out? And Pete bolted for the NFL? Is that smell Probation?
