Lane Kiffin will be formally introduced as Head Coach of The Oakland Raiders during a press conference on Tuesday, January 23, 2007 at 1:00 p.m. at the Raiders' facility in Alameda. With his appointment today by Raiders owner Al Davis, Kiffin becomes the 16th head coach in franchise history and the youngest head coach in the NFL. The 31-year old Kiffin is also the youngest Head Coach in Raider history. Pro Football Hall of Fame Coach John Madden was 32 when he was elevated to the head post by Davis in 1969.
Most recently, Kiffin presided over the vaunted offensive attack at the University of Southern California that a featured long, medium and short-range passing game coupled with a power running attack. His tutoring helped the Trojans capture back-to-back National College Football Championships in 2003 and 2004.

Come to think of it, that isn't really "auburn hair" per se.

I mentioned he had "auburn" hair in the ping, but I should know the difference between red and blond hair by now. Perhaps now that I'm a year older as of today is playing a role here.
To: GOP_Raider
Well, I suppose this is the best head coaching opportunity in the NFL, if you look at it from the perspective of "buy low, sell high." Very low.

I haven't read the Sporting News in about half a dozen years. It's like reading USA Today, only less interesting.

I've only started reading it after about 18 years, while I've been raising kids. It's nice to get back into taking more of an interest in sports again. It's printed in a smaller, more manageable format now. Lots of colorful pictures, too!
