Lane Kiffin hasn't coached a single down for the
Tennessee Volunteers, but he has already proven himself to be college football's biggest dunce.
He's young. He's brash.
He's an idiot.
OK, there. I said it. The man is an idiot. There's not a more sophisticated way to describe Lane Kiffin without being brutally dishonest.
Say what you want about his football mind or his widely respected defensive coordinator/father. If the man had two working brain cells inside his skull, he'd take them out, place them in his mouth and dispose of them in the nearest spittoon.
He's just that awful.
I know, I know. This isn't exactly elevating the college football discourse, but let's face facts:
The man signed a recruit who was convicted of raping his own cousin.
HIS OWN COUSIN!
Excuse me for shouting, but is this what the proud Tennessee football program has become? Did Phil Fulmer screw things up so much that his successor had to recruit a rapist to get the Vols back to national prominence?
Lord knows this isn't Kiffin's first misstep in Knoxville. To name a few:
1. Kiffin wrongfully accused Florida Gators Coach Urban Meyer of making improper contact with a recruit and received a reprimand from the Southeastern Conference.
2. Kiffin and his assistant, former Ole Miss dunce Ed Orgeron, then committed two minor NCAA recruiting violations which were self-reported.
3. Kiffin accepted the Tennessee job.
Now don't get me wrong. I feel for Vols fans. They deserve better than Lane Kiffin.
But can you think of a bigger dunce in college football right now?
