Former Tennessee head coach and current Alabama offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin doesn't need a reason to troll Tennessee fans, apparently. On Monday, seemingly out of the blue, Kiffin linked to an article on Twitter about how Tennessee recruits aren't committing to Butch Jones' recruiting classes. The article details several instances of big-time in-state recruits that end up going elsewhere than Rocky Top.

SEC Network's Paul Finebaum addressed the tweet during his show on Monday, and put up an interesting graphic showing Tennessee's recruiting classes during the last three classes that head coach Butch Jones has put together, compared to the number of four and five-star recruits that were inside the state of Tennessee.

So technically, Kiffin isn't wrong here. But let's take a moment to appreciate the never ending trolling that the Bama offensive coordinator does.
