    YouTube video says Lane Kiffin to

    Florida is a done deal. I’d say this, if true, typical Kiffin style. What about the balance of Ole Miss season? No other details given.

    I don’t believe that. He has Ole Miss in the playoffs right now. He won’t leave until the season is over or they are out of the playoffs.

      I have a hard time believing that too. But if so, that’d be quite the Brian Kelly move.

          Florida continues to lead Ole Miss with about 5 minutes remaining in Q3. I wonder if Florida would continue to pursue Kiffen if they win the game?

            It's all academic.

              Local sports radio here in Jacksonville said this morning that the rumors of Kiffin to FL are flying around fast and furious. Supposedly, a contingent of FL regents were at the game and met with Kiffin's reps, but who knows? FL > UM as far as history, money, recruiting, etc., but expectations for Kiffin moving to FL would be sky high so, even a minor stumble would get the Gator fans screaming.

                I think Florida is trying to rekindle some Spurrier vibes and Kiffin is the closest thing to Spurrier in football nowadays. I wouldn't be shocked if he went but I wouldn't be shocked if he stayed in Oxford. The landscape is so different now. The right coach with the right NIL fund can win just about anywhere. One needs to look no further than Nashville or Bloomington.

                  The Athletic reports that Ole Miss has given Kiffin a deadline of November 28th to let them know if he is staying or not. That's the date of the Egg Bowl. I dont know if that means that wouldn't let him coach that game or the playoffs. LSU supposedly in hot pursuit of him in addition to Florida.

                    I wouldn't think giving Kiffin a deadline would be the wisest thing to do.

                      Be hard to turn either one of those programs down. He's got a good thing going in Oxford. I actually kind of like the guy. I'd like to see him stay put and out of Gainesville.

                        If he leaves, he’ll get a boatload of money but expectations will be sky high from day 1. You can still get paid and have reasonable expectations at a school like Ole Miss.

                        In the era of nil, portal, and expanded playoff; teams like that will have their opportunities. Right now we’re seeing some of the top programs firing their coaches before they can even settle in.
