During last weekend’s coaches’ clinic at USC, Coach Lane Kiffinn thanked new wide receivers coach Tee Martin (a former Tennessee QB) for supplanting him as the most hated man in Tennessee.

But did either of them supplant William Gannaway Brownlow?
that’s pretty funny. of course they may now hate martin but it’s because of kiffin – not supplanting him in their irrational feelings.
We should not joke about this. What will happen when Kiffin leaves us for his dream job at Fresno State?
Lane Kiffin is a modern day Andy Kaufman.
Tennesee fans are still playing their role in the saga: brainless hillbillies that love Jerry Lawler and pro wrestling.
Ha! DixieTrojan is right. That would have been hilarious if Kiffin’s final, awkward encounter with the press in Tennessee had featured a Kaufmanesque Kiffin shouting “I AM FROM HOLLYWOOD!”
Incidentally, if you have never seen the documentary “I’m from Hollywood” about Kaufman’s wrestling adventures, do yourself a favor and rent it.
