Lane Kiffin would've been fired years ago if fooling around with students is a big deal.
Lane Kiffin is the highest paid employee in the entire state of Louisiana and is an employee of a University. Is it honestly too much to ask that people with that level of power not sleep with undergraduates?
I get that OU doesn't have a policy against it. That may make Smith a good amount of money in the end. But it shows incredibly, incredibly poor judgment from somebody who is hired specifically to be a leader.
Maybe they add to any future coaching hires the following: If single or divorced you may not date or have a relationship with anyone "x" years younger or that is grounds for dismissal.
If the student was in 20's then I agree it shows poor judgement to not have ended it very fast. But it does not appear to violate anything in his contract. And although he should have given more thought to her age once anyone in administration became aware of it could have made a suggestion to him, he may be endangering his job.
