Rhodes made it clear Kiffin has his work cut out for him next season because, with Davis calling the shots, he's anything but in control.

"It's going to be hard, man. He's put in all these different bad situations to where he don't have a chance, you know? I mean, when you know you need to stop the run and you don't get somebody to stop the run. He just doesn't really have a chance because somebody else is in control all the time."
Hate reading this stuff...

Disturbing. I wish I could become numb to reading about the dysfunction of this organization.

a lot of inside info in this one. Makes me wonder where Kiffin's and the rest of the team's morale is at.

Sour grapes to me. Rhodes is pissed and is lashing out. I'm not saying things are all perfect here. but he is obviously not happy that we didn't annoint him the next savior.

Oh well...

It's about time. If more players came out like this it would create so much media and fan news, accountability would be assured. I know it's breaking the code of the team, but how can anyone play under a lunatic? All of you that were popping off about the Kiffin davis beef come senior bowl time being fiction started by the news media need to sit up and pay attention. Rhodes is the first player to actually come out and point a finger. Those of us with brain matter knew this was going on but had no concrete. I know what some of you are thinking. Just another disgruntled player. All I'll say to that is keep dreaming in your fantasy world. I'll stick to reality. As painful as it is.

Just remember when deciding what is fiction and reality, coaches and players have come and gone over the years, but there is always one constant, Al Davis. If you want to point a finger, point it at Al.
