Monte Kiffin out at USC

According to this report, he will return to the NFL.

Hopefully this helps us with McQuay at least.

Except for the other thing. That hurts the most. But the lack of respect hurts the second most.

McQuay was always a player I thought Michigan had a pretty good chance at and laitly the stars seem to be aligning for us to snag him from the SEC....or maybe thats just my wishful thinking.

What a waste of a great defensive mind these past few years. Monte Kiffin was a defensive genius in his days at Tampa. Hopefully he can get back to the NFL and make some noise. As a Bucs fan, I'd welcome him back to Tampa.

If Dawson's in who's out??!? In my opinion this team needs a legit WR and RB?

I wouldn't be surprised if we had availability for the 28 max, expecting possibly three 5th years departing, and some natural attrition, but I'd be surprised if we took more than 1 player at each of the 4 positions we're offering right now. Can't really see us taking 2 more RBs or OL, but it could work if we took 2 more WRs as long as one of them was JaQuay Williams who can play right away while the others redshirted. Maybe we could take 2 DBs if one was a true SS type (James Crawford) and the other was a FS/CB type (McQuay).
