Apparently, it’s so obvious that offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin had a bit of fun at another team’s expense Sunday morning.

No. 16 Louisville comes up short to No. 12 Kentucky, 75-73
And some of the credit for the boost in three-point shooting goes to Kentucky natives Dominique Hawkins and Derek Willis . Saturday’s intrastate showdown was a thriller, as No. 16 Louisville hung tough with an uber-talented Wildcats squad.
“Really, in the second year, you start to understand what is referred to as “The Process” more with Coach Saban and at Alabama”, Kiffin said. “We’ll have a new set of challenges with a third year of a new quarterback and replacing a Heisman Trophy victor (Derrick Henry), just as we did with a Biletnikoff victor the year before (Amari Cooper), and some great returning players to work with. I’d be really excited about that”. His rocky track record as a head coach is well documented, but like others before him, Kiffin may well benefit from the Nick Saban experience.

Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher have reprised their roles for the Episode-7 in the franchise. Ryan sent out a press release that compared Obama’s team to the evil empire of the ” Star Wars ” films.
No doubt, but someone close to Kiffin estimated when Alabama hired him it likely would require three years of career rehab before the right AD would give him another shot as a head coach.

Ciudadanos has said it will abstain in the vote to allow the PP to govern in a minority but this would not be enough. Together they would be the only vaguely realistic two-party combination that could form an outright majority.
“HIRE THIS GUY ASAP” wasn’t written in bold anywhere in Saban’s notebook that day, but upon hearing of Kiffin’s firing after the 2013 season, Saban thought back to that day.
It’s also why Kiffin refused the 49ers OC position after the 2014 season.
“I don’t think that there are very many people who would answer the question, ‘I don’t want to be a head coach, ‘” Kiffin said. All but Ball State and Texas State have head coaches in the FBS ranks and it’s quite farfetched that he’d leave Alabama for a coordinator job with another school. Barnett was also a graduate assistant coach on Saban’s LSU staff in 2003. And while we’ve been treated the past two years to endless clips of Saban barking at Kiffin on the sideline, the truth is they’re a lot more alike, certainly from a football perspective, than people think.
In the past, Kiffin’s mouth has gotten him in trouble. “If somebody were to tell you that you were going to work for Pete Carroll and Nick Saban before you were 40 years old as their coordinators on some very successful teams when you’re 25 years old, you’d take that in a second”.
That was never more apparent to Kiffin than after the home loss to Ole Miss earlier this season, especially after Alabama lost to Ohio State in the playoff a year ago. There’s always the chance that a lucrative National Football League opportunity could pry Kiffin away, and he’s always going to listen if there’s a chance to be a head coach again. “I have a great job, and any time there’s any thinking any different, I just remind myself how many people would want to be the offensive coordinator for Nick Saban”.

“I think Coach Kiffin just kind of brings some new ideas”, Coker said, “He really knows how to attack a defense and find their weaknesses and really just figure out what we need to do”.
