People forget how high Kansas was flying in 2007. Being a fan of that program and watching the intervening decade must have been soul obliterating.

I haven't forgotten when they beat us and they had a number 45 playing LB that looked all world.

funny how that sticks with me, I was riled up thinking this guy cannot be this good

I wouldn't wager that. Kiffin did really well at FAU, inheriting a 3-9 team and reeling off two 10-win conference titles in three years. That's going to make you a hot coaching prospect regardless of where you were beforehand.

Also, I seem to recall Saban being happy to be rid of him before the playoff that year and not around his program anymore. Think he moved Sark to OC for the playoffs
 
Coastal Carolina getting wasted by EZU in the Birmingham Bowl. That’s 3 IAR, right?

To their credit, they were fairly prescient with Herm Edwards to ASU.

What's flabbergasting to me is that plenty of people seemed to think he would be successful there. I thought he was disastrous and would set the program back with so little care it borders on malice.

So, are you saying you were wrong because he never had a losing full season and went to 3 bowl games? Or you were right because some of his staff went rogue during the COVID season?

Were you one of the guys who said it was a great hire?

No. I didn't really care. I just couldn't tell from your post what you were trying to say. He coached well, but he lost control of his staff during COVID. Still, the program doesn't look like they were set back. Dillingham appears to be doing a hell of a job in the portal and recruiting. Stole a 4-star from Auburn. Picked up Drew Pyne.
