  • Lane Kiffin is making a career out of acting surprised when he gets called out on his shenanigans.

  • No doubt. But the larger story as it relates to this blog is why the Titans are compelled to turn bad form into an immediate lawsuit. Now Shirley Sherrod wants to bring a lawsuit against a blogger because he was foolish and disingenuous (something to talk about but not the appropriate subject of a lawsuit).

    I sue people for a living so I’m certainly not anti-lawsuit. But I do they they should be reserved for events that rise above inappropriate or bad form and actually involve real injury.

  • On Monday, Tennessee Football Inc., the company that owns the Titans, filed a suit accusing Kiffin and USC of violating Pola’s contract

    So Kiffin and USC were parties to the contract between the Titans and Pola? If Pola violated his contract by signing with USC, that’s fine for them to sue him personally…

    Part of the lawsuit involves the fact that Kiffin violated the terms of the contract Pola which required anyone contacting Pola to go through the Titans first.

    I believe that violating a contract or enticing someone to violate a contract is lawsuit worthy. If not, then contracts and agreements mean nothing.

  • Sometimes things happen for reasons that are not immediately apparent. The Titan head coach is a USC alum and major supporter, the new AD of USC would like nothing better than to get rid of Kiffin. And it is considered bad form on every level of coaching to poach without asking.

    Couldn’t be happening to a nicer guy.
