DISQUS

I don't know what hurts the worst. Monte Kiffin leaving the Buccaneers, or his joining an SEC competitor.

He's evidently been gone for at least a few weeks now...Did you watch the Panthers dismantle the Bucs? They came back and did well against Atlanta, but sheesh...

"gone for at least a few weeks now", HaHa. Funny in a painful sort of way TE. Yeah
I watched the last two losses. I think Garcia would have helped to beat the Falcons, if he could have played. The Panthers do seem to be hitting their stride,

lane kiffin will fail at tennessee , because he doesn't have much talent in the state most of there players come from surronding states like there best player eric berry came from fairburn, GA so they are going to have to get guys from Georgia, florida, and louisianna and really how many 5, 4, and even 3 star guys who can play as soon as they get there are going to choose tenn over georgia, florida, lsu, or bama.

Nice pick up on that last one.

Regarding Kiffen, I remain skeptical about coaches that cross from NFL to NCAA and vice versa. I'm additionally skeptical about the emotional dynamic of a father working under his son. The situation in Knoxville looks bad to me.

Regrding Chizik, this situation is reminding me more and more of Zook's tenure at Florida. Something tells me Chizik will not last as long on the plains as Zook endured in hogtown.

Regarding the Texas-Utah matchup, so the story is that Meyer canceled this game 4 years ago to benefit the Gators today only so he can resign and take his dream job at ND? Wow! Urban Meyer is TRULY diabolical!

Urban is thinking about going to ND??????? When did this story break? Can we put up a new title on here? This sounds juicy.

I think the Lane/Monte Kiffin hire may prove to be a good one; the exception, not the rule. That said, and as someone else stated on another thread, the success of this venture depends upon the solidity of the relationship between father and son. Does Lane possess the wisdom to let his dad run the defense without putting his 2 cents in? Does Lane possess the wisdom to listen to his dad, when he offers his 2 cents regarding the offense? For that matter, does Lane possess the wisdom to find himself an outstanding OC, then, allow him to do his job?

Two issues stand equal with regards to TN's overall success: Can Lane make the right staffing hires? What will be the relationship between father & son?

That Urban Meyer thing w/TX, that's something else all together.

Demarco Murray is going to have surgery and is out for game vs. Florida. That is a huge blow for the sooners!

OU_Ron · 11 months ago

Madu will replace Murray just fine, I just feel bad for Murray, this is the second Bowl game he will miss because of injuries....

Tyler_Tech · 11 months ago

I think you guys are going to have the gators running ragged, but I disagree. Murray is a huge playmaker and everyone is going to be needed.

OU_Ron · 11 months ago

Besides Murray, DeMarcus Grainger is out of the game, I believe it's because of back problems......this is bad news...

NMLSooner · 11 months ago

Well they haven't left for the bowl game yet, so I guess he didn't hurt it trying to lift a coat from Burlington Coat Factory. That's weird, both of these guys missed last years bowls too.

OU_Ron · 11 months ago

lol, probably not, but if we have a WR go down, I don't think I'll watch it.....
