Lane Kiffin - Syracuse: Perfect Marriage?

http://www.collegefanz.com/message/3640

Raiders owner Al Davis addressed a throng of West Coast reporters with glazed eyes and a stern brow. He then proceeded to read a letter in which he called his head coach a "flat-out liar" and a "con man." Why am I writing about an NFL press conference some 3,000+ miles away? Well, the man Davis unforgivingly threw under the bus and eventually fired - Lane Kiffin - may play a significant part in the future of S-U football.
