Lane Kiffin strikes again
it seems that every couple of weeks news of another minor or secondary recruiting violation comes out of Knoxville. this week is no different http://www.facebook.com/ext/share.php?sid=99738060866&h=2XP-w&u=oL7Eo&r…
im sure recruiting rules are numerous and some of them can be considered vague and can navigated carefully with loopholes, but how many strikes can a coach have until there are some significant repercussions? it should be like basketball, 5 fouls and you are out. 5 recruiting violations, no matter how insignificant they are and you lose a scholarship or 2.
...I can't wait for September 19th. I'm pretty sure Urban Meyer will try and hang 70 on him.
*Meet me in the middle of the field* head coaches handshake will be VERY,VERY interesting.
I'd love to see a slap fight.
it'll be one of the few times i root for florida
I think everyone here would cosign that sentiment.
yeah, i think that is around the same time my girlfriend and I have a wedding to go to in gainesville. not positive, but if it is im gonna try and go.
AHHH he's the devil! How could he offhand mention a recruit on Twitter. He gonna get killed by the ES-Ay-Say.
The two of you have very similar usernames. White animals with underslashes.
It's very confusing.
And I will not be associated with the d-bag, EMU, frustration post. Ever.
Right, wrong, or indifferent, I know see your name and at first think of an EMU crybaby. Not to be confused with Jimmy Clausen, of course.
now see your name? I am a douchebag grammar corrector of course but please don't make be that guy.
please don't make be
Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?
have fun!
I changed the post and accidentally deleted me. Forgive me.
don't worry, I'm just playing. that's what the horrible horrible sentence is for ohshitIcan'tendwithapreposition.
Fair enough. However, I have always said that there is a difference between a typo and poor grammar.
When someone says "I seen him catch that ball" it is obvious he meant to word his sentence in such a way. When someone uses the wrong word in a way that doesn't make sense, it's clear that this is a mistake, not poor grammar usage.
Thank you. I did.

You mean like how one might use the word "arrogant" in a way that doesn't make sense?
How could he offhand mention a recruit on Twitter.
Actually, the article says the HE did not write it.unless tickets are going for $100 or something, which i wouldnt be surprised if they were for that game
he won't have feet left to walk with, 'cause he keeps putting them in his mouth.
do you think he'll succeed there? he's shown he's capable of pulling some highly rated recruits.
a chance.
I'm guessing next year will be one of the hardest but he'll turn it around a little bit in year two. If Tennessee can keep their patience they could have a winner on their hands.
coaches in general don't get enough time these days though
I really think this minor stuff gets overhyped because he is Lane Kiffin, the guy who shakes things up. A ton of schools probably have similar minor violations, self report them, and then move on with no one caring.
As for whether Tennessee will be any good, eventually. In a few years, they will probably be near the top of the pack again with this kind of recruiting.
If he causes too much trouble, they could just fire him and then the next guy could win with his recruits.
It has been good, but not amazing like many here have made it seem. Last year he wrapped things up well with Bryce Brown, but he didn't blow anyone away. This year he has 4 commits, 2 4's and 2 3's. Again, nothing big, in fact he might be a little behind.
However, he has a verbal from an OL named Jose Jose. That makes up for a lot.
is arrogant
He must have gone to Michigan.
doesn't even stand on the sidelines this fall...
Someone has a explanation for LK and his *antics.*

"And most importantly, Hamilton says, 'He has gotten Tennessee back on the map.'"
Not by winning a single game, but by drawing media attention every time he opens his mouth and promptly inserts his foot. I think it shows the character of the program that they're so happy about simply being in the spotlight. The guy hasn't even coached a game yet, but he's said a bunch of stupid shit that brought attention to UT, and the AD is happy about it?!?
“He’s not as cavalier as the media painted him to be.”
That's great. I guess the AD has to support the guy at this point, but couldn't he make his support sound justified?
Look, Tennessee needed something. They have been on the brink of a complete talent collapse for years. Last year the offense bottomed out to historic lows. If Kiffin can run his mouth and get talent for Tennessee then good for him. GO VOLS!!
Kick ass, Kiffin.
