SAY WHAT?
Kiffin has been known to say almost anything at any point and Tuesday at his press conference when he dropped this notion about starting quarterback Jonathan Crompton, more than a few heads turned.
"He was so accurate," Kiffin said of Crompton's career-best day against Georgia. "There were two things, one is accuracy, which I talked about the week before when he had not played as well (against Auburn). When your passing game is struggling, if you go into a game and your quarterback isn't accurate at times and you drop the ball six times like we had against Auburn, you're not going to do well.
"Then we go into the next week, we catch the ball and we're accurate. You put them both together, that's what happens. The quarterback ends up being the national offensive player of the week.
"We need to continue to build on that and we need to continue to make plays for him. He was phenomenal on the run (against Georgia). I think scouts are going to come in, and watching that game alone, I think are going to give him a first-round grade. It's almost impossible to find something that he did wrong in those 27 throws that he had."

I don't see anything wrong with that.
He looked like a first rounder against Georgia, but against everyone else not named WKU? Not so much….
I told you we would beat Georgia!! Now, as for those 9 wins in '09......
I got bored and made a blog!! SCS

"Watching that game alone"
Those are the operative words of Kiffin’s quote. He did look like a spectacular QB in that game alone.

Exactly
Yup, he’s just saying that he was first round grade in that game.

Say what you will about Kiffin
But he definitely has had his players’ back this year.
Any recruit considering UT as a QB needs to recognize that – if he is the man, he is going to be given every chance in the world to succeed…
