USC's Kiffin on the hottest of seats

At least our fans are classy -- or too disinterested -- to boo.

I always thought Kiffin overrated. Didn't think Tennessee should have hired him, and as a small vol fan, was happy when USC got him.

Leach is now officially off the hot seat, if he was ever on one.


Yes we boo, only we did it online last night - reread the game thread.

And besides, not showing up is its own version of a 'boo.' Silence can be deafening.

Lane Kiffin has now lost six of his last eight games in a stretch that includes embarrassing losses to Arizona, UCLA, Georgia Tech in last year’s Sun Bowl debacle, and now, Washington State.

Kiffin is overrated and several commentators picked Washington State to upset Southern Cal last week.

In other news, Mack Brown is really feeling the heat as well.

I'm picking James Franklin as the new coach at USC. What do you guys think?

USC isn't going after a Vanderbilt HC who has taken them to two minor bowls and has no previous connections to the Trojans (that I know of). They'll want someone more hight profile, an absolute proven winner.

Honestly, if Petrino wins the Sun Belt this year I could see him getting a shot.

Franklin also has to clear up the allegations about his involvement with covering up the rape at Vandy before anything happens.

I thought Franlin was in the clear on that. Are ther allegations of a cover up? Weren't the kids arrested and dismissed from the team shortly after the allegations?
