Roughest "Monday" Ever

Kiffin, I've been behind you since before you were our head coach. I've rationalized every decision and questionable move you've made. I've defended everything about you from your playcalling to the naming of your kids. I boarded the "Lane Train" before it was cool, and now you're driving it to California.

It's absolutely heartbreaking to lose a coach who single handedly revived the spirit of our languishing program in just over one year. It's devestating that not only will our bare-bones team lose most of its best recruits, we're losing most of our coaching staff. We're being left in the hands of a man named Kippy.

But if Kiffin taught me anything, it's not to fly off the handle when you're feeling emotional. So I'll refrain from further commenting and leave you with words immortalized by Garth Brooks:

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end
The way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance
I could have missed the pain
But I'd've had to miss
The dance
