This is crazy, even for the SEC and Kiffin. 5.34 GPA. Reclassify 2 years. Finished high school classes his freshman year. Played 6 games of varsity football in 8th grade (led to a suspension the next season).

Reporter says he gets told he looks like Lane. And coach eventually lands on “hmm…what’s your mom’s name?”
Amazing how likeable he became to me once he embraced his villain/say whatever side. Dude seems like a fun personality.

Kiffin bemoans NIL, portal for football 'disaster'
Ole Miss football coach Lane Kiffin says the current college sports landscape has become a "disaster," with the transfer portal and NIL to blame for it.
Lane Kiffin says state of college football is 'a disaster
Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin didn't wait for questions on the impact of the transfer portal and name, image and likeness deals at SEC media days on Thursday. Instead, he addressed both topics during his opening statement, calling the current state of college football a "disaster."Kiffin prefaced his comments by saying he's happy that players can get paid but that the unintended consequence of NIL is a "pay-for-play" system where players follow the money and the teams with the deepest pockets get the best talent.
With the transfer portal, Kiffin said, "free agency" now exists -- except that, unlike professional sports, every college player can enter into free agency twice a year with the spring and winter transfer windows.
Said Kiffin: "We've got professional sports," except with no salary cap or luxury tax, and the result is myriad "issues" for coaches.
"And I'm not complaining about it cause we take advantage, obviously, of free agency," he added.

Between transfers and high school recruits, Kiffin tallied 40 new scholarship players on the roster this summer.
"That's the world we live in," Kiffin said. "But at the same time, I don't think that's really good for college football. These massive overhauls of rosters every year really is not in the best interest of college football.
"There's kind of your state of union on the situation of what all coaches are dealing with around the country -- really, a poor system that isn't getting better and now is going to get worse. Because again, now we just look at recruiting rankings and you're going to see that they're usually going to follow this donor base and what schools are going to decide to give the most money to the players. So it is what it is. We'll deal with it like we do with everything else, but somehow it's got to get fixed because there's no system around it."

Millionaire coach whines that kids getting paid thousands makes his job harder and therefore is “bad for the sport”. So fucking arrogant he thinks we are all so stupid we’ll join the crusade to save the sport. It’s tiresome.
Adapt or die motherfucker. Same as everyone else.
