Report: Ole Miss Has Set A Deadline For Lane Kiffin To Make His Future Decision

by Staff Reporter

Stephen Lew-USA TODAY Sports

College Football writer Stewart Mandel has reported that Ole Miss has set a deadline for head coach Lane Kiffin to make his future coaching decision.

According to Mandel, Kiffin, whose Rebels are 10-1 and poised for a playoff birth, will need to make up his mind by the Egg Bowl next Saturday, on Nov. 28.

The reported deadline comes after speculation that Kiffin could likely be leaving Oxford for either the Florida or LSU jobs.

On Monday, LSU flew members of the Kiffin family, including his ex-wife Layla, from Oxford to Baton Rouge for a tour.

If this is true, Ole Miss is stupid.

THIS^^^ in 2003 if we knew Saban was gonna leave after the natty we would still WANT him to win it first, a natty after 50 whatever years is irreplaceable.

OM is stupid. Poking the bear at this stage is almost as foolish as a governor publicly asserting he's in charge of university athletic personnel actions.

He left after the 2004 season.

Just when Mississippi tries to not be 50th in all state categories, they cement their status in this realm.

They’ve actually skyrocketed up the rankings in education in the last 12 years. It is astounding what accountability testing has done.

If Kiffin is going to come to LSU he will need to get used to the powers that be controlling him anyway. If this deadline offends him, he won’t last three years in BR.

Read about the stats. They fudge the numbers to make their scores look better.

Philzilla2k•4 hours

Louisiana should try that. Anyway, Mississippi is growing, Louisiana is shrinking. How about that stat?

Why would you threaten the dude, could backfire bigly!

cbree88•19 hours

What can they do if he doesn’t meet the deadline? Fire him? This is dumb.

Sweet. Then no buy out to pay.

I have heard some bad ultimatums in my 66 years but I believe this is dumbest, stupidest most ignorant one I have ever heard. They say you’re fired and he says ok, I’m taking 2 offensive linemen, a defensive tackle and an end, a corner, a LB and a partridge and a pear tree.

Mister Ice•19 hours

Stupid. How about he says nothing? What will they do, fire him?

ibleedpurpleandgold.•19 hours

They are powerless on this situation. He can tell them whatever he wants and then leave. I wouldn’t say anything at all.

Tigers4Lyfe•18 hours

Technically you're right but who is going to do that?

NorCali•17 hours

This is the most Ole Miss thing ever!

CalTiger53•19 hours

He knows he will not win championships at Ole Miss but Ole Miss doesn't know that.

Yeh, it’s happening…..

And y'all thought our governor was going to be an issue.....bwahhhhahhahaha

The governor, the BOS, the fans. Take your pick. Kelly went from having the number four team in the country to being fired two months later. If Kiffin cannot handle being told what to do then he will never survive here where 9-3 season the year before gets you fired, winning a national championship only buys you two years of goodwill, and where losing the heart and soul of your team (Weeks) to an injury all gets you fired.

Interesting.

You have to be proud of Ole Miss for doing this. The program is bigger than any one person even if that person is the head coach. If he is going to go at the end of the season, let him go now. If Ole Miss has to start looking for a head coach, they need to start looking now and cannot wait until after the playoffs to take their choice from whatever is left. Kevin owes them honesty. Let’s see what happens.

Or what?

I would test the deadline if I were him.

Just wait until Jeff finds out they’re offering another decade long contract.

It must be rough to sell Baton Rouge when you have to fly people into that airport and drive through that part of town.

That's why they call them the runts.

I mean, Ole Miss just lost their HC with these threats. Not saying he's coming here, but who in their right mind would want to stay there? OM can go back to being irrelevant.

Kiffin never learns. Pulling this shite in the middle of a title run.
