Kiffin blocked to interview

Raiders coach Lane Kiffin reportedly agreed to an interview with NFL Network recently, but Al Davis blocked him from doing it.

And the saga proceeds. Davis reportedly told Kiffin that following through with the interview could be considered "insubordination," and a means for firing him without pay. If Davis fires Kiffin for no good reason, he'd still be on the hook for a pay check. Kiffin's job security remains hour to hour.

Rumours. I don't put much stock in "Tavern Talk." Although I would not be surprised if something like this actually did happen.

In light of the recent public relations move by the Raiders this past weekend, head coach Lane Kiffin agreed to do an interview with the NFL Network. But when Adam Schefter showed up in Buffalo to tape the interview he was told that it had been cancelled. Al Davis apparently sent word to Kiffin that if he did the interview, the act would be deemed as insubordinate and therefore provide grounds for termination without pay.


If Al was trying to keep things quiet in raider land by blocking this interview....then, wow

“To go be a head coach in the NFL, and deal with the personalities in the NFL, the players, and to deal with a completely dysfunctional franchise when you get there,” Kiffin said before being interrupted by laughter. “That wasn’t a joke. That’s something that was real valuable. You can’t go to school and learn crisis management like you learn there.”
