I just hope he's as successful as Steve Kragthorpe. I don’t care who they hire as their head coach. I just hope he’s as successful as Steve Kragthorpe.

While I hope you (and he) are right that Kiffin will be named UT's next coach, it won't have anything to do with Adams and he'll be among the last to know. The fact is Hamilton hires a firm for this stuff and they don't leak. So whatever we are hearing is "filtered" and who knows if its accurate. Plus, Adams's shenanigans the last few years have forced UT to dstance itself from his rag and when they do share info they don't share it with Adams. Guys on his staf like Pennington, Strange, Griffin, etc. are far more likely to have good info than Adams. To the extent his staff has good info I don't doubt they share it, but Adams will not get it from anyone who is next to Hamilton. Its the sad state of affairs we face in Voldom right now that the hometown paper gets scooped by unnamed bloggers and Chris Lowe almost everytime. Good thing is that Lowe has written all along that Kiffin was in the top 2 for the job. For my sake and sake of Voldom, I hope Lowe is right. As for Adams, we got rid of one problem in Knoxville let's make it 2. Chris Lowe for sports editor of the KNS? Be careful relying on John Adams.
