Lane Kiffin hadn’t coached at Tennessee for two years, but was taking the blame for anything and everything wrong with the Volunteers until a shocking event last November. What event was that? It was Tennessee’s first loss to Kentucky in 26 years, with Kentucky being led to a 10-7 win by a converted wide receiver who hadn’t played quarterback since high school. It was after that signature loss that some Tennessee fans finally let Lane Kiffin off the hook, or at least let [ddiapos] join him in the blame game.

Unfortunately, I don't see Tennessee fans letting Kiffin or Fulmer completely go until Tennessee is holding an SEC championship trophy again. It may be a while.
In 9 words, Hat has perhaps the best post of the last two years concerning Lane. We act like the ex-girlfriend who got cheated on, and now we have became scornful, and the former is just looking back at us laughing. The folks who still hold a grudge to him should just move on. Its a waste of time to stay pissed at Kiffin.
"We?" The prevailing opinion around here seems to be much more practical concerning Kiffin. I don't even blame him for getting a laugh out of our fan base. We acted like naive hicks.
