Kiffin's View on Quarterback Pay Offers a Model for Heupel and Tennessee

An A to Z Sports piece points to Lane Kiffin's stance on paying quarterbacks as a sensible approach, and argues that it is one Josh Heupel should follow at Tennessee as he deals with his own quarterback situation.

The connection drawn is direct: how a program handles quarterback pay has become a central roster decision, and Kiffin's position is presented as the example worth copying rather than an outlier to ignore.

For Tennessee, the takeaway offered is that Heupel's handling of the quarterback spot should be guided by that same thinking, applying Kiffin's approach to the choice the Volunteers face at the position.
