What will come first, a conference championship or major violations followed by probation. In either case, will anyone notice? On the bright side, Joey Freshwater will bring some attention (be it good or bad) to our conference.
Please explain how this will turn into a locker room melt down?
Most of the guys that are mentioned have been with the team all summer and there hasn't been any issues most have played really well in the first week or so of camp.
They add another JUCO player and GT who was kicked off Pitt and we will be a disaster?
This is just so salty pettiness that annoys me. Lane has never had a locker room revolt, but because you don't like the way he left UT we will be UNC.
there are a lot of stupid people when it comes to Skippy K
he took over a TERRIBLE Tennessee program and he had no issues there other than he left them in a year and they were not happy about it
and at USC he took over a terrible program that was already on double secret probation he did not do anything there that increased their issues with the NCAA there has never been any accusations of that much less any proof
and he actually won there after taking over during a disaster with the probation and recruiting restrictions he was only fired because USC has stupid high expectations and they cannot grasp the fact that they allowed their program to have major issues BEFORE Kiffen was ever there not while he was there
the down year he had in the 3rd season (and then 2 losses in year 4) pretty much goes right in line with the period when they had terrible recruiting because of the violations and restrictions in place from BEFORE he took over
hell they won 10 games that 4th year and I am pretty sure he would have won at least that many if he was not fired and I am 100% sure the players on the field were mostly his recruits because it was his 4th season there and because USC had so many players getting drafted along the way
so clearly he can recruit even with restrictions and he has not had a losing season in college ever
and if you want to talk about his pro record well two words "the raiders" and along with that his record there was still a hell of a lot better than what he took over for and what happened after he left
the people that call him a cheater seem to generally be fans of programs that are perpetual losers and that have churned through coach after coach losing and PRETENDING that their program has not had plenty of issues
they seem to ignore their player issues and of course their player issues get less attention because it is losers being losers at a perpetual loser program
but yea their program "does things the right way".....if by "the right way" you mean they suck a lot and pretend their program does not have issues
