Lane’s World, excellent!

with 5 comments

Rarely do we have a chance to go inside the recruiting game to see just what happens when coach and recruit sit down to chew the fat.

Enter Lane Kiffin, who is taking the bold step of trying to turn around the life of a convicted rapist. Daniel Hood was Mr. Football in the state of Tennessee last year, which immediately got Kiffin’s attention. His, er, checkered past apparently played right into Kiffin’s recruiting hands, too.

The following is a secret recording of Kiffin hosting recruits at some place off-campus. H/T to the TaW crack(ed) staff for putting this one together:

This is where you expect us to say something about Justin Chaisson’s ultimate set of Craftsman tools, right? From where we sit, Chaisson merely seems like a great but misguided kid. He just needs an opportunity to turn his life around, and we welcome the 6’5″, 250-pound, 4.7 40 DE to the Sooners program. We also would like to thank him for keeping the Las Vegas Bishop Gorman pipeline alive, no matter what it takes. Stoops is a flippin’ saint for giving him that chance.

Actually, Chaisson has already been nominated for the Jason Klotz Bitch Had It Comin’ Award. Being a believer in reform himself, Barnes magnanimously refused to suspend Klotz for punching the clown a punching bag his girlfriend and waited instead until the Baylor game rolled around Klotz actually threw a punch at a guy, in a game.
