If he's on the field he will be able to make sure the ball is inflated properly.

I still believe Coach Saban had that done on purpose just to tick him off.

Does the REC control opponents headsets?

Kiffin called plays while being the USC HC. I believe when he was co-OC with Sarkisian at USC he was upstairs. Sarkisian was the guy on the field as one his primary responsibilities was coach the QBs.

Good point, but Kiffin is also the QB coach. It'll be interesting to see. I don't know why I even thought about this honestly lol...

As long as he isn't sitting on a cooler and coaching, then I don't care.

Throwing kitchen sinks takes a lot out of a man.

The REC controls EVERYTHING. LOL

I haven't heard, actually, but I would guess upstairs. Except for Tennessee when he should probably coach from about Fort Payne.

Now that is funny. I am still laughing...

I don't recall him being on the sidelines at USC. I couldn't find any pictures of Kiffin in the press box at USC so you're probably right. If I were CNS, I'd want him in the pressbox.

here ya go:

TideMom2Boys · Aug 27, 2014

Has Saban had any of his Offensive Coordinators on the sidelines with him?

Go Bama · Aug 27, 2014

Derek ... I should have said on the sidelines as OC at USC. I was looking for a press box picture or one with Kiffin and Pete Carroll on the sidelines together.

Kiffin's first game with Bama......his preference has to be coaching from the sidelines. Enjoy the day Coach K.

Weren't Nussmeier and McElwain also QB coaches? I can't remember for sure...

negative unless I'm mistaken

Well here is our answer

@AaronSuttles: Saban: Lane Kiffin will call the game from the field.

The beat writer from the @Anniston Star: Saban: "I’ve never made the OC come down but we’re going to do it this year." I'm sorry this just doesn't sound good to me.

Thought so! That's where he was for the A-Day game. I'd expected him to be invisible, like Nuss.

JustNeedMe81 · Aug 27, 2014

Why? You didn't even include the whole statement that came with it. He felt that Kiffin has the biggest impact with the players on the field.. and I agree with Saban on this.
