kota Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 Story. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d8194...ching-assistant Lane Kiffin is a joke of a human being. I gave him the benefit of the doubt when it came to the raiders but after leaving the Vols 1 season in to join USC you realize he is a backstabber.

ExiledInIllinois Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I agree LK is a douchebag... But do the Titans really have a case? I mean come, I know etiquette was broken... But really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steely Dan Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I liked Kiffin for awhile but I agree he's a douchebag. How difficult is it to pick up the phone and make a simple call? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarolinaBill Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 as underhanded as this may be, the titans are in the wrong here, no laws were broken, except maybe the one the titans are breaking by filing BS lawsuits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kota Posted July 26, 2010 Author Share Posted July 26, 2010 Well the coach USC took signed a contract stating he couldn't accept a job with anyone unless the the organization IE USC put in a written request. the coach is definately in trouble. UCS/Lane Kiffin could be brought up on Tampering charges related to the contract. I would think the Titans lawyers know what they are doing and wouldn't file suit unless they had a strong case.

I wonder if Kiffin's standard defense of shrugging his shoulders and saying he didn't do anything wrong will sway the judge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincec Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 as underhanded as this may be, the titans are in the wrong here, no laws were broken, except maybe the one the titans are breaking by filing BS lawsuits It sounds like Pola violated the terms of his contract so he may be in some trouble, but I don't see how Kiffin is liable for anything except being a cutthroat.

Agreed. USC would have no clue what clauses were contained in his contract to the Titans. IMHO, the only way USC/Kiffin is in trouble is if Pola told Kiffin about the clause and Kiffin then chose to ignore it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tampering??? USC doesn't play in the NFL. Lame suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albany,n.y. Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Tampering??? USC doesn't play in the NFL. Lame suit. Goodell should immediately convict USC for tampering & take away their 1st round pick in next year's NFL draft! Of course it's a lame lawsuit-reading between the lines, they're doing it to appease the anger of the college fans in Tennessee, hoping to gain points with them. Let's remember who owns the Titans-the douchbag who moved them out of Houston & was giving the Bills the bird last season & got fined for that idiotic behavior.

Let's remember who owns the Titans-the douchbag who moved them out of Houston & was giving the Bills the bird last season & got fined for that idiotic behavior. At the time Adams thought Ralph was tampering with Jeff Fisher. That is why the bird was given. After that incident and this it sure appears Adams has a hang up with tampering.

Peter Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Presumably, the Titans will assert intentional interference with contract/advantageous business relationship. P.S. It would be funny if the University offers to help fund the lawsuit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gave him the benefit of the doubt when it came to the raiders but after leaving the Vols 1 season in to join USC you realize he is a backstabber. I think it was a dirty move by Kiffin, but the Titans deserved it after the way they disposed of Byner. He helped coach Chris Johnson to one of the best single season totals in history and they handed him walking papers. This one's for you Jeff and Bud.
