Lane Kiffin Talks about SEC Passion

It won’t be long before Lane Kiffin will finally get to show us what he can do as the new head coach for the Tennessee Volunteers. Over the past several months, his comments and actions have rubbed some the wrong way, but Kiffin hasn’t apologized, nor does it look like he will anytime soon.

Recently, Kiffin spoke with WGFX in Tennessee about his job, and he attributes his antics to the fact that the SEC is very, very passionate about football. I wouldn’t totally disagree with him.

The best example I can give you is that in our first year at Southern Cal, there were 45,000 people in the stands and that’s a pretty powerful school. At Tennessee, even when it’s down at times, we’re still selling out the stadium. So I think that speaks volumes about the issue.
