Pennington's right. But does Finebaum even matter?

Short synopsis: PF asserts Kiffin should be fired. Pennington rightly diasgrees.

Additional point: does PF really think it makes sense to fire 2 head coaches 3 months apart? Does he plan on chipping in for the buyout?

My take: Finebaum is potentially amusing in that Dennis Kucinich sort of way - harmless so long as nobody actually gives him any authority. Think of it as a caricature sketch artist setting up shop outside the Louvre.

According to Finebaum

Making silly comments with little substance behind him is a fireable offense. In that case, shouldn’t he be shown the door… like now.

Finebaum

is just making sure this new guy is immediately on his enemy list. Finebaum benefited greatly from the whole Fulmer/lawsuit/Logan Young/SEC media days fiasco. He just wants to make sure if there is anything remotely close to that with Kiffin, that he’s right there in the middle of it.

Finebaum's article isn't just hypocritical

It’s irresponsible. I do so love it when writers associated with other schools try to tell me how Tennessee fans are feeling.

Yes

But he’s “associated” with Alabama.

Besides

Eric Berry’s is the only opinion that really matters.

“It’s great to have a coach (who) has so much confidence is us,” Berry said. “… He’s making us feel we can compete with anyone. He has raised the bar on and off the field.”
