YEP!  This is the kind of crap that I'm hearing from the majority of Vols fans around here.  The ones that are appreshensive (which are only a few that I know) are taking the lets wait and see approach, but are very hopeful.  I find very curious that they don't understand what all the fuss is about with his comments and think that us Gator fans are being overly sensitive.

Oliver and Shane will probably agree with me, but I can tell you that the vol fans LOVE him! They say he reminds them of SOS in the 90's and they are hoping for the same kind of results we had with SOS.

Which leads to the question - who hates Kiffin the worst?

 

His own fans?  - tired of "all hat and no cattle", "all flash no cash", etc

 

His staff? - Kiffin raises the bar - when they have no talent to jump that high

 

Other SEC schools?  Kiffin accusing them of cheating then we find out it is Kiffin that is violating rules

 

His own players?  - leaving the team in droves.

Vols, Kiffin deal with defections

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — A total of 11 Tennessee players with scholarships have left the Volunteers football program under new coach Lane Kiffin, including four since the end of spring practice.

A team spokesman confirmed that wide receivers Ahmad Paige and Tyler Maples, offensive guard Darris Sawtelle and quarterback B.J. Coleman have left the program since the team’s Orange and White scrimmage game on Apr. 18.

Kiffin, who was introduced at Tennessee last December, said during a Big Orange Caravan stop earlier this week that he only wants players who want to play for the Vols.

Tennessee is allowed a total of 85 scholarship players each season under NCAA rules.
