Kiffin doesn’t like his roster

By Micah Warren

You don’t see this everyday. Lane Kiffin’s relationship with owner Al Davis has been weak at best. Now, he’s publicly complaining that he doesn’t have enough competition at camp, and that there guys that should be signed and guys that should be cut.

“There’s not very much competition on this field,” Kiffin said after a crappy practice Sunday. “Some guys have been released at other places, and people are picking them up. You’d like to pick up some of those guys and bring them in, because they’ve been in other camps, and push some of our guys.

“Unfortunately, there are some guys right now on our roster that are borderline guys that, as of today, would make it just because we don’t have anybody else.”

This is hardly a ringing endorsement of Al Davis’ GM skills. Can anyone tell that Kiffin doesn’t care if he’s fired? He doesn’t.
