Is Nick Saban the best recruiter?

[@krowking123]

The Herd with Colin Cowherd He is for now... but Kirby’s got his number 👀

[@drwinstonOboogi]

Yes. And the recruits love their new cars! totalfratmove.com/alabama-football-is-the-best-car-dealership-in-the-country/

[@rolltide5059]

drwinstonOboogi totalfratmove.com, what a reputable source. And please tell me you aren’t an Oklahoma fan, the irony would be to much to handle.

[@samdeloach7790]

Not the past couple of years - the smart money is now on Kirby.

[@drwinstonOboogi]

Marshall "Money Bags" Malchow has been "bagging" a lot of 5-Star recruits for Georgia.

[@rohithnadella7515]

kiffin looks like a thick, trunky, midwestern, blue collar coach

[@clydemeans781]

HE HAS ALSO BEEN A COASTAL KID!

[@gabebourgeois8964]

How original

[@NickTV12]

Born in Nebraska, so the shoe fits

[@TheLwaller09]

He's definitely a bro

[@MrDontray1]

Let's be honest folks, Nick Saban is phenomenal, great recruiter, has tons of talent, but he executes with talent too. He never screws up.

[@errorerror3133]

Lane “Tosh.0” Kiffen

[@davidhernandez9985]

An outstanding offensive genius coach!

[@ron4sc]

Lane is starting to grow on me again. I still hate those friggin bubble screens he would call at USC but Fight On, Lane.

[@davidswift7776]

Ron Evans good interview and showed maturity and good controlled content. Can’t deny his success 👍

[@franklinbrandon5283]

Ron Evans haha RIGHT!!! I agree with you 100%

[@LukeSpookem]

I agree but you look now and everyone is running those bubble screens. The guy knows his stuff and I wish him nothing but the best. Would love to see them knock off OU

[@joelaton1062]

I'm a Bama fan, i I get the bubble screen hate lol. Well, the sheer amount of them anyway. Lane is a good offensive coach. My only problem with his play calling is that sometimes he tries to get too cute. Or too finesse.

[@MegaChuck212]

Ron Evans, Lane Kiffen used to be one of those guys who would always blame the other team for cheating when a recruit went elsewhere. Now he has learned the truth, at least most of the time.

[@sns1015]

Why tf does he talk about Silicon Valley so much omg

[@Brax_animation]

Lane Kiffin looks like the little league coach who plays his kid at shortstop even though he’s the worst player on the team

[@ayala1006]

lol wut

[@primatejames]

:-)

[@careajean]

????

[@trails4all]

Killing me!!

[@Blayze1017]

Kiffen is an offensive wizard in my opinion. I believe he could take head coaching job to a high level once he grows up a little. Has acted pretty immature at times, although he’s been put through the ringer. I believe he’ll surprise everyone once he gets a few yrs of running the whole show

[@cjg333]

Silicon Valley, Mogal stage, divorce

[@ricocheteraw90sthebestdecade]

Thick and trunky coastal pilots...lol

[@moneymarcannmae]

His favorite words !!! Lol

[@charlestumazos3439]

I went to an annual gala at FAU as I am an FAU alum and got to meet Lane Kiffin. He arrived at the party wearing a purple 1970's style suit. He has a real presence about himself, I cant wait to meet him again.

[@godpigeon2784]

Kiffin Krimson Korner

[@lurchlogan]

No Pain,No Lane!!

[@texasmade9727]

I like Lane Kiffin! Probably one of the realest coaches in college football. I see alot of Tom Herman in him!

[@ATL3xtra]

interesting but Tom Herman has a COMPLETELY different personality

[@egantv9358]

Herman is a Dirtbag. Dont compare him to Lane

[@enniswhalen2428]

BF - Texas is hungry for a winning football team.Herman may be the guy!

[@charlesdoyle3630]

@@egantv9358 as is Lane. Lane got reprimanded by the NCAA for making allegations against Urban without any proof. Got left at tarmac when coach at USC. Left in middle of night while at Tennessee and other things. Now maybe the man has grown up but I doubt it.

[@lukemoloney1113]

Lane Kiffin is a helluva coach no two ways about it.

[@quinnsmith4736]

I Like Lane, glad to see the success he has at FAU.. rolltide

[@Methxdz]

Colin divorce must’ve really messed him up he brings it up every episode

[@ulitmateroryor1188]

Kaylen Howard Divorce in general must be rough, especially with kids involved. I work for a major company with hundreds of employees, everytime one gets divorced they speak on it constantly for a long time.

[@jacksonflowers2498]

Well his wife got jealous...and can you blame her? Colin is always talking about how thick and trunky Sam Darnold is.

[@aaronlovell6026]

Naracist bring up divorce in every conversation because it effects them. If you want to spot a naracist watch and see how many times they say me, our I. Naracist are all about themselves. No matter who there talking about or whatever there talking about. It all comes down to them.

[@iamrichrocker]

happy that Kiffin has found his inner peace..He took a long look at himself..at his soul and his Heart..and knew He was not happy..money does not make one the happiest..liking who you are is...

[@robbyarnold8463]

I remember Lane Kiffin as a young brash coach at USC and Tenn,.and how he nearly killed his HC career with moving around ,.but under Saban he really shined as a coach...and now he will take off as a top head coach ...he is a top notch recruiter and great coach

[@gregdarrow4188]

Most of the questions were about people other than Lane. Solid interview skills, Colin 👌

[@dhuck470]

Yes Saban is the best at recruiting

[@HandyManchronicals]

Lane kiffin’s FAU may beat Oklahoma it wouldn’t shock me

[@bennyrobinson1935]

Oklahoma lost to Iowa St. last year

[@sethfinberg348]

Go Owls! I don't know about a win ... but a close game /good showing would be great.

[@SugoiEnglish1]

LOL. OU 50 FAU 17 son. You don't watch the games do you?

[@SugoiEnglish1]

Yeah, and scored 48 on UGA.

[@jacksonflowers2498]

I think UCLA might beat them. Chip Kelly's offense vs. Oklahoma's defense...yeah Chip's putting up at least 40 on Oklahoma.

[@briandeaton36]

The Jalen Hurts reunion on Boca next year is gonna be good

[@sethfinberg348]

FAU fans/alumni would love that. Great spot for him.

[@tonyzan5268]

Lane kind of looks like Big Ben

[@davidswift7776]

Good interview 👍

[@RastaDuppy1]

Suprised Lane didnt try to work Devin Singletary into the conversation since his great season last year went unnoticed by most fans

[@realMHoops]

Shoutout Boca

[@stoopstified7376]

Ray Hall .. understood Ray.. I'm a fanatic college football fan..I understand the risk, " first" game , non familiar team, new year, new team ..good coach. Very successful year for them last year. Still I just don't see it. Can't wait to watch it. Best of luck to you and your team this year, but not next week!

[@stoopstified7376]

Ray Hall ..mmm..that game might be closer than you think..ole Bobby ..called y'all out"guaranteed" victory, for the Cardinals. .. Bobby got his boots on!

[@SugoiEnglish1]

LOL. OU has had two top 10 classes and before that three top 14 classes. This Oklahoma son.

[@stoopstified7376]

@Ray Hall well Ray , it was a long shot , and you put your clams on FAU .. doesn't look like that's going to happen today , but ..good luck on your bamma boys! And your season

[@dillsanders1046]

Lane Kiffin is 19 year old in a 45 year old guys body haha.

[@lurchlogan]

That's why he's great at recruiting. He can relate to the recruits on their level!!

[@davidhernandez9985]

Who can out recruit better either head to head between Kiffin or Saban if Coach Kiffin lets say if he was like in a school like Michigan just saying?

[@mikexxxmilly]

Lane kiffin looks like an extra in an early 90s power rangers episode

[@tobyschneider367]

Gruden was around football the whole time, in fact he has now more info than he did before because of MNF.

[@bradbooker977]

HE turned Crompton into a good qb his last year.

[@Arundodonax]

Run da ball!

Lane, skip neck day this week.

[@egantv9358]

Lol

[@jeffreycarter2548]

I don't have Lane like I once did

[@tycardwell2991]

My team, Oklahoma, has to play him week 1. Besides Michigan-Notre Dame, it will be one of the best games on television in week 1. Should be a lot of fun and a good scare. Gonna set the tone for the College Football season. Ohhhhh I'm so hyped. Feel bad for Bama fans who won't see a good game until Alabama's last game of the season against Auburn. If they can even win that... Lol had to throw some shade.

[@SugoiEnglish1]

Not gonna be a game to watch. OU stomps them like wisky did to a better FAU team.

[@sethfinberg348]

FAU won 11 games last year (including their last 10 in a row).

[@jberkhimer]

I love how Lane Kiffin is aware of how much he's hated and glorifies it lmao

[@richernest3359]

Hot dogs and losing cause chest pain.Tell us what we don't know.

[@lnd1998]

Hoot hoot

[@ellisfield159]

So the thing about recruiting and people saying they stole the recruit because they cheated... they may have but that means someone out there was working harder than you to get the same thing done.

[@tommiephips7886]

I wonder if Kiff is the coach who anonymously accused Saban just so he could come out in support of him. Wouldn’t put it past him.

[@Ninjachickenfingers]

Coach O ain't going anywhere for awhile. It's his dream job. He's put heart and soul into it. I'm not an LSU fan, but I think O will be in Baton Rouge for a few more years.

Everyone.. Go to the settings and slow the speed to 0.5. You're welcome!

Lol...I see what you did there! IMO he was an idiot! Did you ever see his ex wife? Hot hot hot!

[@keithlindsay5012]

Hope Bama hires Lane one Saban retires.

I think it's just dreaming of having one's own business that gets him excited.

[@mase2285]

Exspecially

[@CeLtiCsMaNiaC34]

Kiffin sounds like gronk when he talks

[@hawaiiguykailua6928]

I read you were in LA and didn't get any requests for autographs or photos. I'll say this, I would have requested one, and told you I'm happy for your current success. I'm not a star struck anything, aside from the time I met Clint Eastwood, I mean LEGEND huh. I thought you did an amazing job at USC, how could anyone fault your success under such lopsided sanctions as to travel with less than 50 players and still have a 73% win ratio. Good luck coach, too bad you didn't outlast Nikias and the worst ad in history.

[@shaynecrimsontide82]

Yeah, he definitely got a raw deal at SC....they left him at the airport! Who does that? I think he came out alright tho. FAU may not be a juggernaut but it is in Boca, one things for sure....can't beat the scenery down there!

[@danielrutstein2316]

Go FAU

Would love Coach Lane Kiffin U.-M. if only Coach Jim Harbaugh should decide to leave to NFL

Ggggrrrrrr - Al Davis

[@jacksonflowers2498]

Colin's asking a known cheater about cheating...did Colin forget how he pulled the original deflategate when he couldn't beat Chip Kelly straight up? Sad part is he cheated and still got smoked.

Lane Kiffin is the Kim Kardashian of coaches. No actual accomplishments, tons of attention.

[@break5033]

What he did with Bama was an accomplishment if you ask me, he largely helped Saban catch up with the new style offenses.

[@ATL3xtra]

Kiffin actually is a VERY good coach. It is his personality that is an issue
