What should Lane Kiffin do Breaking down his coach

Where will Lane Kiffin coach next season?The future of the most-polarizing a sistant coach in college football remains very much up in the air Todd Helton Jersey as Alabama heads into the College Football Playoff.MORE: Kiffin, 41, certain gets a lot of attention based on his past head-coaching stops with Oakland in the NFL, and Tenne see and USC in the FBS. Kiffin had a 35-21 record between the stops with the Volunteers and Trojans, both of which ended unceremoniously.Kiffin, however, reinvented his career as an offensive coordinator at Alabama the past three seasons. Thats opened some doors for his coaching future.The only question is where the future leads after this season. Here are five po sible scenarios:Stay at BamaWhy it works: In what universe Colorado Rockies Jersey is it going to hurt Kiffin to stay onanother season as offensive coordinator for the top program in the nation? Kiffin has developed two Heisman-caliber players in Amari Cooper and Derrick Henry and has another one onthe way in quarterback Jalen Hurts. If Kiffin stayed until Nick Saban retired, then would he be a logical candidate to take the job?Why it doesnt: Unle s, of course, Alabama loses in the College Football Playoff, and the blame somehow falls on Kiffin. That happened after the lo s to Ohio State in 2014. The relationship between Saban and Kiffin has worked out so far. How long can it last?Go to LSU as OCWhy it works: Kiffin is reunited with Ed Orgeron, and he would have the chance to renovate LSUs offense and develop a quarterback. If he can do that succe sfully, then hed be a hit in Baton Rouge. Plus, the implications of leaving Alabama for LSU would be off the charts for that SEC West rivalry.Why it doesnt: Would Kiffin changing places turn the tide in this rivalry on its own? No. This would be a high-risk for Kiffin given the obligatory social media firestorm it would create. MORE: Go to Houston, USF or CincinnatiWhy it works: Kiffin gets that head coaching job Pat Valaika Jersey and has the chance to show what hes learned at Alabama on a stage that isnt Tenne see or USC. The American Athletic Conference has been good, and Kiffin would add to that. Houston is particularly intriguing here.Why it doesnt: Kiffin likely wouldnt be there long. If he won big, then hed probably follow the same path Tom Herman, Willie Taggart and Matt Rhule took to Power 5 jobs this season.Go back Chris Rusin Jersey to the NFLWhy it works: Kiffins work as an offensive coordinator could attract the attention of an NFL team. He could follow a path similar to Dirk Koetter, who left Arizona State in 2006 and became a renowned OC before taking the job with Tampa Bay. Thats working out this season.Why it doesnt: It would probably have to be coordinator. Kiffin went 5-15 as the Oakland Raiders head coach and his relationship with the late Al Davis was not good during that season-and-change.MORE: Wait for the big jobWhy it works: This ties into staying at Alabama, but Kiffin could wait one more year for another Power 5 job to pop open. We mentioned the benefits of waiting, but if the right big-time program came calling, then perhaps Kiffin would jump at the chance.Why it doesnt: Tenne see and USC will always be part of that conversation. Kiffin is a high-risk, unknown-reward proposition as a head coach. Carlos Gonzalez Jersey Could you imagine some of the high-profile po sibilities down the line? Notre Dame? UCLA? Anywhere else in the SEC? All of those options would be fun.
