Art Briles, who was fired amidst the Baylor sex scandal, talks on a regular basis to both Florida Atlantic coach Lane Kiffin and his son, Kendal Briles, about FAU's offense.

According to the Sun Sentinel, Kendal Briles, FAU's offensive coordinator, speaks with his father about personnel and putting players in the right position to succeed.

“Obviously, he has ideas,” Kendal said. “He wants to know personnel and different guys and making sure we’re getting those guys in the right spots and getting them touches and all that stuff. He’s a football coach, that’s all he’s ever been. He’s definitely involved and we talk daily.”

Briles spent 13 years as a head coach in college at the University of Houston as well as at Baylor. Prior to that he was the head coach at Texas high school powerhouse Stephenville, where he won four state titles.

Kiffin took over the FAU program in the offseason after spending the last two years as the offensive coordinator for Alabama. The Crimson Tide won the national championship in 2015 and finished as the runner-up in 2016 with Kiffin running the team's offense.

His wide-open offense at places like USC, Tennessee and with the Oakland Raiders in the NFL has some similarities to Briles' system at Baylor that led college football in yards from 2013-15, so to take advice from Briles isn't a bad football decision.

“Obviously, he’s done unbelievable things on offense,” Kiffin said. “It’s his system that he started years and years ago. Every once in a while, I’ll text or call him and bounce something off of him.”
