"I think he's going to be a great starting quarterback in the NFL, and the film shows it," Kiffin said. "The plays he makes, all the throws he's made here, the leadership qualities ... I've said this before: If Matt Barkley had the defense that Matt Leinart and Carson Palmer had, Matt Barkley would have won the Heisman Trophy just like they did. He would have had the winning records they had."

I actually kind of agree with Lane on this point.

Even if he is right, he still shouldn't have said it. Kiffin and Sark have the same problem in how they coach. They look at themselves as offensive coordinators and not head coaches. They pass the buck and blame the defensive coaches rather than understanding that they are accountable for every facet of their programs.

Maybe...

But could you imagine anyone on our staff saying something like "If we allowed MM to finish games then he would have won the Heisman"

It's poor form.
