Kiffingate 2010 - The drama continues (more videos)

First, here's the first part of the Kiffingate story with some entertaining videos.

Second, here are some more videos.

Raw footage of Lane Kiffin's quick press conference to announce his fleeing from Tennessee.

This one looks like it was taken toward the end of the "rioting" on campus. Be warned of some foul language aimed toward Kiffin in the video.

And some more glimpses into hillbilly culture as we watch these people sing "Rocky Top" while lighting stuff on fire to commemorate Lane Kiffin's wonderful season at UT.

Coaching changes so far.... and Kiffingate continues

First, check out the Kiffingate post below. I'll add more updates in a while.

I don't know if we've ever seen this many controversial coaching change stories within such a short period of time. Let me take you through the timeline of events.

December 1, 2009: Head coach Charlie Weis of Notre Dame is fired.

December 2, 2009: Georgia fires defensive coordinator Willie Martinez.

December 11, 2009: Head coach Brian Kelley leaves Cincinnati to go to Notre Dame.

December 26, 2009: Coach Urban Meyer declares that he will resign as head coach of Florida.

December 27, 2009: Coach Urban Meyer changes his mind, says he will take leave of absence.

December 28, 2009: Mike Leach is suspended by Texas Tech due to a player complaint.

December 30, 2009: Mike Leach fired by Texas Tech.

January 9, 2010: Tommy Tuberville is hired as the new head coach of Texas Tech.

January 11, 2010: USC coach Pete Carroll signs to be new head coach of Seattle Seahawks.

January 12, 2010: Tennessee's coach Lane Kiffin leaves after only one year to become the new head coach of USC.

January 12-present: Riots and protests on Rocky Top.

Also, legendary Bobby Bowden was finally let go from FSU, Jim Leavitt was fired by USF for allegedly roughhousing a player, Rich Brooks left Kentucky, and a bunch of other coaches moved around.

Can you believe this stuff? I hope there's some way this keeps up throughout the offseason so we have something to entertain us until actual football returns.

Kiffingate 2010 - Watch the videos

This is fun stuff.

First, the local news report.

Sometime after the announcement of Kiffin's departure, a riot/stampede started on UT's campus. A Tennessee basketball player updated frequently what was happening from his twitter. According to several reports, "protesters" ran down a main street on campus, chased after Lane Kiffin's car, and assembled by Neyland Stadium, some trying to climb the fences and get into the complex.

Here's some apparent footage of the "rioting."

Oh, and some of the "protesters" lit a mattress on fire and proceeded to chant "it's great to be a Tennessee Vol" while holding up "We hate Lane Kiffin" signs. Seriously.

I like how their chant just slowly dies down. I imagine these guys finished their little pow-wow and walked slowly and silently back to their dorms to go to sleep. Except for the guy whose mattress is on fire in the street.

I'm trying to decide whether we'd see this same stuff happening at UGA's campus if we were in a similar situation. Maybe it's just a Big Orange thing.
