Wow. Damning stat that I heard on the radio today. Googled it and found this:
Kiffin is entering Year 12 as an FBS head coach — 1 with Tennessee, 4 with USC, 3 with FAU, now 4 with Ole Miss — and his wins have aged worse than an avocado. The only time in which Kiffin beat a Power 5 team that went on to win 9 regular-season games was when he led USC to an upset of No. 4 Oregon in 2011.

There’s a troubling Lane Kiffin stat that he’ll have to squash if he wants to live up to that new mega-deal
The Ole Miss coach has a glaring weakness holding him back from being considered an elite coach.
