So we have a new anti-social media activist now and his name is Lane Kiffin. So Lane Kiffin now has
deleted all of his social media accounts. A subdued Lane Kiffin says he's given up social
media after being challenged by his son Knox. And Kiffin was philosophically about life without
social media. He said he's learned a lot about subtracting things from his life, mentions alcohol
and toxic relationships. I'm assuming that means hot yoga. It's going to be kind of tough for Lane
here to contact all the co-eds there at LSU now, because again, that was kind of a source for him
being able to connect with all the co-eds there at Ole Miss. All those co-eds were starting to
dialogue going back and forth between the former head coach of Ole Miss and some of the co-eds
there. It's going to be a rough one there at LSU. How in the world is he going to be able to
handle the hot yoga and all the things that he handles there with all the co-eds now with all
them lady tigers? Boy, I'll tell you, I got to hand it to Lane. Here's a guy that is absolutely
the biggest BS artist in the history of college football. And now he's going to be an anti-social
media guy and he's not going to have any of his accounts active. Well, that's because his wife,
Layla, has basically said, get off social media or get out. Okay. So look, this guy has got to be
one of the most untruthful and most non-trustworthy coach in the game today. Lane Kiffin, how do you
trust? I can't believe that that dude's Lane is Monty Kiffin's son. This guy is the most
untrustworthy guy that you could ever play for. Look, I've made this comment and I will go all
in and off the top rope on Lane because of the places and the people that he has affected where
he's gone. When he was at Tennessee, not one person came forward and defended his time there
at Tennessee. When he was at USC, it was a complete train wreck. When he was at Southern Cal,
when he was at Ole Miss behind the scenes, his wife left him. Now they've come back and I'm glad
to see Layla back with Lane. Hopefully that straightens his life out. Supposedly he's not
doing the booze and the drugs that he was doing that he talked about years ago and he's straightened
his life out. Now he gets an opportunity to go to LSU. Look, I've made the comment and I'll continue
to make the comment. He's the most untrustworthy coach in college football today. You don't trust
a guy like that who has self-certainty issues and he's only thinking about himself. You go
and you play for a coach that wants to get the best out of you. Listen, I don't mind coaches
that are out there making Kurt Cignetti the top money, but when you go play for Kurt Cignetti,
the way you motivate players is to get the best out of the players that you possibly can,
to put them in the best position that you could possibly put them in. That's what a coach is
responsibility is, is to make you the best player you can be. Along with that, make you the best
player and person you can possibly be. How can Lane Kiffin talk about making a kid the best person
he could possibly be when he can't make his own self the best person he could possibly be?
That means you don't trust the guy. It starts when you're a coach, personal relationships.
Give me a story about Jimmy Johnson. This is a story that happened to me when I was at the
University of Miami. I'll never forget it. I'm at a hotel. I take the blankets and I take the
towels that were in the hotel room. I took them because I take them to my dorm room.
Jimmy Johnson calls me the next day, right there on practice, why did you steal the blanket?
And why did you steal those towels out of the hotel? Coach, I didn't have a blanket and I don't
have any towels. Jimmy looked at me and said, for God's sakes, don't ever do that again.
I went back the next day. I gave the blanket back and the towels on my bed. There was a brand new
blanket, pillows, towels, toiletries. I show up to practice the next day. Coach Johnson, I walked up
to him. I said, coach, thank you very, he goes, thank you for what? And I said, well, thank you
for like doing that for me. And I didn't have a blanket. Jimmy looked at me and says, don't ever
do that again. Get back in line, get back in the huddle. He was going to throw me off the team,
but because I told him that I had taken that because I didn't have a blanket to keep myself
warm. He said, don't ever do that again. Coach had a personal relationship with me
that exists to this day. You think that guy has personal relationships with his players
that exist to this day? No way. That's a coach. That's 40 years ago. That coach is still one of
my best friends and treats me like when I was 19 years old. That's the difference between being a
great coach and a fraud. That's coaching.
