At last week's SEC Media Days, Tennessee head coach Lane Kiffin made some remarks about having a billborad going up in south Florida. The picture above is what the billboard is planned to be. The interesting part is not neccessarily what the billboard says, but where it is located.

Coach Kiffin answering a question about recruiting in South Florida: "It's obviously a very hard place for us to recruit because of the great tradition of Florida State, Florida and Miami, because of having to travel to us. So it makes it really difficult. There will be a billboard going up there in the next month that I think you'll be excited to see, that will give you something to write about that will help us, too."

Media: "A billboard?"

Coach Kiffin: "Uh huh. I'm not going to give you any more than that. Got to give you something to look forward to."

The billboard will be going up, according to the Miami Herald, near the intersection of I-95 and Oakland Park Boulevard in Fort Lauderdale. Oakland Park Boulevard happens to be the same road that holds Lauderdale Lakes Boyd Anderson High School.

Why is Lane Kiffin interested in advertising so close to Boyd Anderson High School? Demar Dorsey, a 4-star Cornerback happens to attend high school at Boyd Anderson. He is listed as being a "soft verbal" commitment to Urban Meyer and the Gators by Rivals, but the team he is listed as most interested in besides Florida is Tennessee.

Although Dorsey has been a verbal commitment to Florida since October of 2008, he is being recruited heavily by Kiffin and Eddie Gran, has recieved an official offer from them, and has shown a medium amount of interest in attending their school. His other offers are from Wisconsin, West Virginia, FSU, Miami, North Carolina, and Rutgers.

In last year's recruiting battle over NuKeese Richardson, Kiffin got another south Florida Gator commitment to pretend that he was still 100% committed to Florida even though he had told Tennessee he would sign with them on National Signing Day in private. Kiffin knew not only would Florida go after NuKeese hard if they knew he'd changed his mind, but also that their numbers for scholarship offers would be off if they held a scholarship open for NuKeese and he didn't accept it. They played the same game with a 5-star LSU recruit named Janzen Jackson as well.

The good news is that Meyer not only learns lessons the first time around, but he learns lessons really well. Meyer won't let Kiffin fool him again. As the old saying goes, fool me once; shame on you. Fool me twice; shame on me.

Kiffin and the Tennessee staff better have some more tricks up their sleeve for the 2010 recruiting class besides a billboard because Meyer can not only out-coach Kiffin, but he can out recruit him as well.
