I also believe that he is staying through the playoff, but that comes with no real knowledge - just having heard what he said. So, for me, it is just a guess.
A guess for me as well, UNLESS, you consider that everyone on the planet has Kiffin leaving except Nick Saban and Lane Kiffin.
Given that he bolted from UT for "greener pastures" and that he has NFL experience, a sizable buyout seems appropriate.
I, for one, was surprised how well we ran it given we never "run the dang ball, Lane."Well good for him. I wonder if anybody read it?
Are you saying that you don't think he's leaving at all? You have hit some inside straights before, but, as of now, he's not just gone, he's done been gone. However, as a CYA, he was fired last year and ended up getting a year's extension...
They know that If they wanted Kiffin and Kiffin wants them, then they will work out a compromise that suits both side. I don't know if Houston wants to invest long term into Les Miles.. I would expect something to happen soon to where its not so bad.
From what I've been told he's done at Bama, but after the playoffs - even if he gets the Houston job...
Possibly - Houston might dig their heels in. They're tired of being a stepping stone, but that's what they are (and will continue to be unless / until they become a P5 program)...
, Well.. that doesn't mean nothing.. I mean he was gone no matter what happened.
And Terry Saban was house shopping in Austin.
I have no real info. I just think if he was going to be gone that he already would be gone. It's nothing but a hunch, and I've said all along, I'm ready and willing to eat the crow.
