Lane Kiffin might be insane.

I'm gonna laugh when he wins like 10 national championships

2/5/2010 4:24:51 AM

how many of these committments will stick? remember when Chris Leak committed to Wake Forest?

2/5/2010 4:45:34 AM

don't search for his highlights on youtube unless you want to be assaulted by crappy music

I live in DE. The school this kid plays for is a tiny christian school I didn't even know had a football team. Total enrollment of probably less than 200.

Of course, he's only in 7th grade. Perhaps his choice of high school is more important now than his choice of college.

The kid is going to be a head case by the time he reaches the college level.

2/5/2010 6:56:57 AM

Committing this early is brilliant from the kid's point of view. He can always change his mind but for now he can pull tons of middle school tail.

2/5/2010 6:57:32 AM

Man, he is gonna get sooo many french kisses.

2/5/2010 7:08:22 AM

^ i predict he's already a lock for 5*'s at getting to 2nd base

2/5/2010 8:01:38 AM

No way Kiffin hasn't taken another job somewhere else before this kid graduates.

maybe its because his hands are the size of a small monkey at the age of 13 but it looks like he's pushing the ball out and not so much slinging it

2/5/2010 10:39:08 AM

^^ promo for a new MTV series?

2/5/2010 11:52:59 AM

nah, trailer for the varsity blues prequel.

2/5/2010 11:57:49 AM

He takes his snaps from under center. So he's got that going for him.

This is Lane's dream job so I don't really see why everyone thinks this.

2/5/2010 1:39:01 PM

maybe his past coaching history has something to do with that. i don't know.

2/5/2010 1:43:09 PM

^^This is his dream college job...until the NFL comes calling with $Texas.

2/5/2010 2:28:26 PM

So, uh, is this kid gonna play or what?

Sorry bout the bump, guys. I was looking for some official thread about recruiting so I could post that Gerry Hamilton blunder.

"Clarkson said Kiffin asked him his opinion of the recruit and Clarkson said, "You might call me crazy, but you've known me a long time, right? And when I said if there was going to be a LeBron James of football it'd be Jimmy Clausen that turned out to be a pretty good prediction."
