In the press conference, Lane Kiffin said, “This is something that happens very quick.” He referred to his tenure of fourteen months with the team and mentioned about the unbelievable support that he had received from people. The departing coach also indicated that he would not decide to quit his association with Tennessee if any other team except USC, had offered him the job.

Lane Kiffin, in a press conference, has announced his decision of leaving Tennessee for returning to USC. He is familiar with the environment of the USC team. He had worked with Pete Carroll and fans expect that he would follow in the footstep of his predecessor and help the players perform well.

Lame Kiffin at USC what a joke. With an astounding
12-21 record as a head coach what are they thinking?
They’ll need the biggest trojan for lane because he’s the biggest d— of all time!

I believe this author meant to say “The
Tennessee VOLUNTERS” not the Titans. I think Jeff Fisher plans to stay with the Titans a few more years. How can an error like this get by the Editor?

Lane Kiffin was NOT the coach of the TN Titans. He was the coach of the Tennessee Volunteers. This is a big difference because the Titans are a NFL team and the Volunteers are a college team.

Uh…Lane Kiffin was never the coach of the Tennessee Titans- that’s a pro football team. He was the coach of the University of Tennessee Vols–how does a sports writer make a mistake like that?

If you desire any credibility at all…and I do mean ANY, you should probably do some basic fact checking. Obviously, I need to look no further than this sorry excuse of journalism to see what a sham this outlet is. Tennessee Titans? Wrong. That’s a professional football team. Try the University of Tennessee. Google that…thats what anyone with an ounce of intelligence would have done. I would be extremely embarrassed if I were the fool to post this garbage.

HE coached the Tennessee VOLS. Some columnist you are! You can’t even do your homework enough to make sure you get the right team down. The Tennessee Titans are in the NFL! What is Cali teaching everyone? To be mediocre? Good riddance Lame Kiffin.
