I remember that when the last coach left his school to join LSU and not a single coach followed him. They elevated an assistant and the rest of the crew stuck at Notre Dame. Would love to see something similar here.
Crazy they elevated the DC to HC. Not interim. Signed him to a contract. The rest of the coaching staff will clearly have some leverage to stay or go.
I too like that the AD told Kiffin to pound sand. I mean, no one really did anything wrong here. Kiffin's hand was forced by LSU and the dumb NCAA transfer calendar. They had to announce when they did. But, letting him coach through the playoffs while he is recruiting those same kids to transfer with him would be untenable. In general, coaching one team and recruiting for another just does not work.
He is leaving a playoff team for a non-playoff team who fires coaches for winning 9 games. He better make sure his buyout is fully guaranteed, before that moronic governor gets involved.
