It's posts like these that make you sit back and wonder who will find the nagative spin on this? Who will turn this into a Kiffin is gone next year thing. This sounds very promising to me and it sounds like this is something that he wants to see through.

Kiffin is history next year!........J/K... I'm still excited about this team even through the loses this year, a little tweaking this off season and maybe a winning season next year....I've been following this team since 1968 and believe they will be back.

I like the first half. I don't like the implications of the second.

Really like Kiffins outlook. the team needs to get that taste for winning back, there are too damm used to loosing and thats more important than throwing JR in too early. But now is the time when JR will see considerable playing time, here in the next 2 weeks.

That is a fact. Just look at the ass whoopin he's taken this year. And all the so caleed fans jeering him. All this and he gives no less then 100% every week. Without acting like a 5 year old. A consumate professional.

if kiffin leaves this team prematurely he is a fool, with more top picks coming in the early rounds we are poised to add more talent and with kiffins system in place for yr two and the familiarity the players have with the playbook i just will be blown away if he leaves. russell we be unbelievable talent, bush will add talent in the backfield. we need a run stuffers, ss, and a chad johnson type reciever. this team is going to look real strong in the coming yrs.
