It is hard to imagine someone so incredibly dumb and unethical as Lane Kiffin has turned out to be. Not only has he slandered Urban Meyer and been found guilty of violating SEC rules, he has set terrible examples for his players. Many of his other actions have also been unethical such as faking who he was visiting, impersonating a player when dealing with the player's high school coach, coercing a player to lie to gain a recruiting advantage, etc.
I can appreciate the enthusiasm a new coach needs and must have, but such blatantly sneaky and unethical behavior is NOT the message of integrity and honesty that should be given our young people. I hope that someone at Tennessee will sit him down and compel him to clean up his act. By the way, I don't particularly mind loosing Richardson. I don't think the kid will likely stay out of trouble. It is clear that he does not have the ethical standards that we need at the University of Florida. In his brief courtship of Florida, he has misrepresented his high school achievement in his attempt to graduate and enroll early and lied to several people about his intentions about going to Florida after he had decided to go to Tennessee.
