Tennessee’s Lane Kiffin has long way to go before he’s Pat Summitt-class
Tennessee’s Lane Kiffin has long way to go before he’s Pat Summitt-class Kiffin hasn’t even coached a college game. And the guy he’s relying on for advice, recruiting and otherwise, assistant head coach Ed Orgeron, won exactly three Southeastern Conference games (3-21) in three seasons as Ole Miss’ head coach before somebody snapped an ammonia…

Documents suggest Texas Tech’s Leach has turned down interviews
Documents suggest Texas Tech’s Leach has turned down interviews Though Mike Leach’s loyalty has been an issue in his stalled contract negotiations, documents obtained Monday from the International Marketing Group suggest that those concerns may be overstated. Leach has directly interviewed for only one other job in nine seasons as Texas Tech football coach and…

What do recruiting rankings mean anyway?
What do recruiting rankings mean anyway? What do the recruiting rankings mean? That’s a question I often get, and based on the spirited discussion recruiting rankings can generate, it’s obvious to me that they mean very different things to different people. Some consider them affirmation of their own superiority as fans of a team ranked…

Morris: Jersey-gate could have been avoided (Spurrier)
Morris: Jersey-gate could have been avoided Maybe it is because coaches become adept at making split-second decisions during games. Perhaps it is because coaches learn to make snap judgments on player evaluations. Or, maybe coaches feel compelled to throw their weight around. Whatever the reason, those coaches have forced schools such as South Carolina to…

Kiffin asks for beating by Florida
Kiffin asks for beating by Florida When Lane Kiffin grows up, he’s probably going to be more than a little embarrassed by the events surrounding his first National Signing Day as head coach at Tennessee. At least he should be. With one ill-advised and immature statement, the 33-year-old Kiffin proved that he doesn’t know the…

Coach-In-Waiting Plan Needs to Go
Coach-In-Waiting Plan Needs to Go Haste always invites waste. Such was the case with my 30-second rant last Friday at the end of Around the Horn against the trend of college coaches designating successors. I expressed my amazement that Ralph Friedgen, the football coach at Maryland where I started teaching last semester, announced last Friday…

Recruiting Is Becoming A Nasty Business
Recruiting Is Becoming A Nasty Business As another National Signing Day has gone into history in college football, I began to think of the good old days, when relatively few people cared about recruiting. Was it so long ago when coaches went out and recruited a kid and that kid said he was going to…

Dooley: Kiffin ‘has a lot to learn
Dooley: Kiffin ‘has a lot to learn The Evil Genius talked big, too. The difference was, Steve Spurrier had already won something before he arrived in the SEC. (Like an ACC championship – at Duke.) Lane Kiffin’s record as a head coach is 5-15. And yet he has, in two-plus months at Tennessee, managed to…

UT’s Kiffin adding spice to the SEC
UT’s Kiffin adding spice to the SEC This year’s SEC spring meetings in Destin, Fla., should be more fun than in years past if only for the chance to stand outside the league’s football coaches’ meeting room. It is expected to be the first time all the coaches are in the same place at the…

SEC ‘spreads’ offense around
SEC ‘spreads’ offense around In football, the SEC is known as a speed conference. To hear Kentucky coach Billy Gillispie talk, the conference might have the same type of reputation on the hardwood. “This league is quite a bit different than the ones I’ve been in because of the style of play,” said Gillispie, who…

FINEBAUM: Tennessee must cut its ties with Kiffin
FINEBAUM: Tennessee must cut its ties with Kiffin There is a simple solution to the anarchy at Tennessee. It doesn’t require committee meetings or deep analysis. It might be costly in the short term, but the long-term effect will be bountiful. To maintain even a modicum of integrity and respect in the world of college…
