    I am still not convinced that Kiffin will put it all together. Unlike his predecessor, Carroll, he is mostly hype and he did not leave elite talent at Tennessee.

    OSU just needs to take Bigelow from them and I will be happy.

    But he IS getting elite talent at USC... why worry about Tennessee when he is killing it at USC? He is winning games, and has a chance at the NC, no need to hate on the dude, he's getting it done after inheriting a tough situation.

    Not hating, just stating the facts. He has had three HC positions and the first two were debacles.

    He inherited a tough situation back at USC but probably one of the three most talented rosters in all of CFB at the same time.

    He has a big opportunity this year to finally make his record match his hype. I am waiting to see.

    Agreed we shall see how he puts the talent together.He still has never won sh*t as a HC at any stop (Oakland, Tennessee). U$C was a 10 game winner last season, sure, but what bowl game did they win again? This season is his true test as a head coach. They are certainly loaded with another Orange County brat at qb which has worked out well in the past (Leinart, Palmer, etc.). Again, I hope Lane (violation) is VERY appreciative for all the doors that Daddy has opened for him.

    Here's a good one:
    'Said it before and got marked as flamebait. I'll say it again, watch DeVeon's new highlight video. He's just as good as Ty, and it would be a waste to sign 3 running backs in one class when we have needs at other positions. I'd rather have an extra wide receiver or defensive lineman."

    Here's the link: http://mgoblog.com/mgoboard/ty-isaac-usc?page=1

    Here's a response to a rational fan wondering why they can't get elite skilled positions: "But I'm not sure why it's a "mystery" to you. And by this I mean there's only been 2 Elite RB's we've gone after, Dunn and Issac. The one that I thought we had a chance at was Issac, so that makes one. Dunn was always an OSU lean so I don't think he even really qualifies. So I think saying it's a mystery is a bit grandiose, considering we have a sample size of two one of which I don't think we had a chance at anyway.

    If this happens next year and the year after, I'll start to be concerned. "

    Here's a response saying that their D. Green chances were slim to none: "Slim to none - what is your source? I know many different people that would disagree and immediately put us in his top three. "

  • As far as Kiffen is concerned, I think he will have success in the short term, but I want to see where USC is headed in 5 years IF he is still there.

    Who has won in Oakland and Tennessee? Maybe 2 or 3 coaches total in the last 20 years... He has put together some awesome classes. Last year he smashed Oregon in Eugene and lost a good one to Stanford that they definitely had in the bag, just couldn't close the deal. They have a 1 game schedule this year, Oregon... the rest are cakes, including ND at home.

  • How can you comment on the fact they didn't get a bowl game when it wasn't his fault? And what will you say if we happen to go 12-0? Pot calling kettle... His dad didnt recruit for him the last 2 years... Tressel's dad definitely opened doors for him also. He's a good coach, not great until he wins something of importance but you can't knock his classes and his success so far at USC all while on probation. He inherited some BS and has found a way to make USC even more attractive to prospects inspite of it. They are going to win the NC this year, thats my not so bold prediction.

    I agree. I think most Michigan fans thought it was going to be a tough battle to win.

    While I understand being happy Michigan doesn't have him, he might crush even more of our dreams on a talented USC team than he would have on a crappy Michigan team.

    We will play USC in the Rose Bowl or BCS playoff!! I'd rather he went to Illinois or something.

  • I concur. I'm not that big of a fan of Kiffin, but he has done a good job. Even if you don't believe he can coach, he's smart enough to surroudn himself with a good staff.

    Kiffin actually did a pretty good job in Oakland turning them around. The Raiders dysfunction has been well documented. He was fired for not caving to crazy Al, not for his coaching ability. Towards the end of Phil's tenure, Tennessee was (and continues to be in shambles). During Kiffin's brief stay in Knoxville, the team was beginning to turn around and actually be competitive again.

    I don't see how either of his HC stints are seen as negatives. Inheriting a bad situation (remember USC was not penalized till after Kiffin arrived), he has USC back in the national conversation. We can talk about about the advantages that schools like USC and TOSU have, but it doesn't take away from the degree of dificulty Kiffin and Meyer have faced since taking over two programs that were in disarray.

  • Isaacs is the kind of player the spread always is at risk of losing out on, elite RBs with pro futures.
