I told a radio show earlier today I thought Kiffin would be the Raiders coach seven days from now.
But the more I hear about the dysfunction in Raiderland, I'm convinced Al Davis will do everything he can to get rid of Kiffin.
The Raiders deny all of this. But these things don't fall out of the sky.
From what I hear from The Bee's Matt Barrow's, the friction between Kiffin and Rob Ryan was obvious at the Senior Bowl.
According to SI's Don Banks and the Chronicle's Nancy Gay , Kiffin has been exiled by Davis.
This situation has gotten ugly fast. Al is doing all he can to make Kiffin's life hell.
With James Lofton in town on Monday, don't be surprised if he somehow ends up as the new head coach.
The Raiders say he's in to interview with Lane for a coaching position, but my bet is he's coming to interview for Lane's job with Al.
You never know with the Raiders.
But how can Davis bring back Kiffin after all the mess that' gone on?
He wouldn't let Kiffin fire any defensive coaches, so the defenders know they can disregard Kiffin.
The offensive players would know Kiffin isn't really in charge.
What a mess. Can the Raiders fix it?
Based on their recent history, I doubt it.
