Cradle of coaches

If you want to be an SEC head football coach, it helps to have NFL experience.

The happy news is that you don’t have to be particularly good at your pro job.

    “Some see UT’s Kiffin as the second coming of Carroll, who has been wildly successful at Southern Cal.”

    Hopefully, these people have been sedated until they recover from their psychotic break.

    “Does NFL experience make you a better college coach? Maybe. Maybe not. Some see UT’s Kiffin as the second coming of Carroll, who has been wildly successful at Southern Cal. Others see him as another Bill Callahan, who was fired in Oakland and then was ousted after four seasons at Nebraska.”

    But yet others see Lane as the second of Ed ‘Colonel Reb’s Been Crying’ Orgeron http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nACZJ5x_wBY
