Kiffin understands
Ole Miss Coach Lane Kiffin can empathize with what Clay Helton is going through after being fired as USC’s coach on Monday following the Trojans’ 42-28 loss at home to Stanford to fall to 1-1.
Kiffin was fired as USC’s coach in 2013 after a 6241 loss at Arizona State dropped the Trojans to 3-2.
Helton was an assistant coach for Kiffin and Steve Sarkisian at USC before succeeding Sarkisian.
“I feel for Clay,” Kiffin said. “Clay’s a great person and I think everybody knows that.
“I can relate to being fired early in the year from there, but just in general for him to be fired after two games, that’s a long season to sit around.”
Kiffin had a 28-15 record with the Trojans. Helton was 46-24.
