Lane Kiffin to USC: Do college coaches have any integrity?
Posted by Chris Cwik in College Football, Morality on January 13, 2010
I can’t believe I am saying this, but was Al Davis right all along? When Davis fired Kiffin after only a year and a half it just confirmed the obvious; the Oakland Raiders were still one of the worst run franchises in professional sports. Many critics felt that Davis rushed to a decision after only giving Kiffin twenty games to prove himself. Only a year and a half later, it looks as if Davis was right all along. Of course, no one in Southern California wants to hear about any of that. Honestly though, how does Lane Kiffin keep getting work?
The Bet: Week 1

Jason Campbell Leads After Week 1
Time to lighten things up around here. Matt “Monty” Montgomery, is an unabashed lover of all things LSU. We know that, and we love him for it. As many of you may have noticed, I wrote two very similar articles about both Jason Campbell and JaMarcus Russell. While Campbell’s outlook was a bit more positive, Russell’s was not so rosy. Remember, that Russell went to the fabled Louisiana State University. Monty, obviously, took exception to the fact that I implied Russell might not be a very good NFL quarterback. Therefore…The Bet was made.
Throughout the season, we will be monitoring both Russell and Campbell in a few key statistics. Whichever quarterback outplays the other in those stats will be the winner. The loser will be buying dinner for the winner. Pictures can be taken, good times can be had. I, of course, will be taking Jason Campbell. Monty, as expected, will be taking JaMarcus Russell. The stats we will be monitoring are as follows:
- Touchdowns
- Interceptions
- Completion Percentage
- Passing Yardage
- Quarterback Rating
Let’s analyze how each of our boys did in Week 1.
Players At A Crossroads: JaMarcus Russell

Russell Needs To Succeed This Season
JaMarcus Russell’s rise from fringe draft prospect to number one overall draft pick happened all within the span of a season. In 2009, he faces a similar situation. A chance to prove, once again, that he can succeed at the highest level. Russell’s NFL career has seen more lows than highs and he risks being labeled as one of the biggest draft busts in NFL history if he continues to struggle at the NFL level. With the Raiders releasing veteran Jeff Garcia, Russell will get every opportunity to show why he was the number one overall draft pick in 2007. With his NFL career possibly in the balance, can Russell perform in a crucial season?
