Below is a quote by Saban after the Tennessee game. I think it concisely sums up why Les ultimately lost his job. His patent, resolute, stubborn resistance to change and adapt. The college football world is vastly different now than even just 10 years ago. And Les either couldn't or wouldn't see it. Doesn't diminish his absolute greatness and all that he achieved in Baton Rouge, but it does explain why he's no longer our coach.
Alabama Coach Nick Saban was asked about Kiffin’s performance following the Tide’s win in Knoxville. He said, "Lane has done a really good job of bringing our guys along, sort of doing what they can do, adapting to the players that we have extremely well, which he has done. Each year we've been here, we've had a different type of guy playing the quarterback position. We've been able to adapt and I think systematically now we are a lot further along from where we were before.”
