The hiring of Lane Kiffin as Trojan HC sure as hell sent shock waves throughout the college FB world. There are an enormous number of angles to this story, but here are the positives (from my perspective) for the Trojans:
1. Kiffin knows the west coast, knows the university, and knows how to recruit.
2. He brings Ed Orgeron with him. Coach "O" is one of the premier recruiters in the country. Things are looking up here.
3. There is a good liklihood we get Norm Chow back as offensive co-ordinator. If so, that's a major plus.
Kiffin has an almost impossible act to follow...I really don't believe anyone will duplicate what Pete Carroll did from 2002-2008. If Kiffin can come even close to Pete's overall effort at SC, then the PAC-10's glee at Carroll's departure will be short lived. We shall see.
