USC fires Lane Kiffin - latimes.com (http://www.latimes.com/sports/sportsnow/la-sp-sn-usc-fires-lane-kiffin-20130929,0,7787298.story#axzz2gIB8cCoc)

Lane Kiffin to Texas!

(Pleased?)

I stayed up and watched the end of that USC / ASU game last night, because I was loving every minute of it. USC was completely embarrassed.

SC fans are extremely obnoxious so I've enjoyed this recent slide.

Probably the right thing to do and Kiffen is hard to like, yet they were hit with probation in the wake of Pete Carroll just a few weeks after he arrived, and they are severely limited in scholarships.


I just hope Texas doesn't finally wise up and show Mack Brown the door. :)

Goody seems appropriate

I'm betting Tennessee is having a good laugh over this.

The one team that I despise is USC, they surpass even the 80's Miami teams in my mind because they have been around longer. I don't have anywhere near the same amount of disdain for UT or ND.

Ideally we would have wanted Kiffin to at least be competitive so that he could stick around longer, same way that I feel about Mack.

Speaking of, I am still trying to figure out how Kiffin gives up 60+ points and gets fired hardly after his plane lands, and Mack Brown gets pasted for 60+ several times just by OU and gets a contract extension.

Well, Mack has at least had some past successes. Kiffin hasn't.

Life-long USC fan here (a non-obnoxious one though) and my comment about this move is "Good riddance."

Kiffin=No championships=fired
Brown=1 championship=contract extension
