These are my personal views and opinions and not necessarily those of my employer.

Maybe Lane and LSU should just go ahead and pay it like they more than likely told him they would.

[Matt Moscona @MattMoscona]

As I stated in July when this first popped up, no issue with Ole Miss—or any school—enforcing a contract.

The issue was with Keith Carter naming the players publicly in an interview. And now this the week of the game? Continues to show how small and petty he is.

He looked foolish for believing Kiffin would stay when the entire world knew he was leaving. Now he’s trying to act tough to impress his sympathetic fanbase. Weak.

You’ll be trying to bring back @michael_lasasso next.

[Chris Malloy @coachmalloy12]

Well here we go…. Meet the newest member of the Malloy family! Champ!🤦‍♂️

[Gant Boone @GantBoone]

@KirkHerbstreit would you and Coach Saban like to revisit your stance on letting him coach in the @CFBPlayoff ?

[VANITY FAIR @VanityFair]

As Alabama’s 2016 team leveled the competition, it became increasingly clear that offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin was ready to take his next career step. The only question was which school, if any, was willing to take a chance on him.

Off-field concerns hung over Kiffin’s entire time in Tuscaloosa. In 2015, rumors of Kiffin being fired for an affair became so prominent that they even made TMZ. In the story, TMZ reported, “Kiffin’s name is blowing up on social media today . . . over completely unverified rumors that Kiffin was involved in an affair with a high-profile Alabama lady. One of the rumors was that the alleged banging set off head coach Nick Saban.”

While Kiffin would not be fired for “banging,” off-field behavior did reach Saban’s desk. It led Saban to tell at least one staff member to give Kiffin some helpful advice.

“You’ve got to keep Lane away from the girls that are in college,” Saban said, according to one former coach. “Just keep him away from the sorority girls. Make sure they’ve graduated college or are working a job.”

Real Shame

[Gant Boone @GantBoone]

The hell you say.

[Lane Kiffin @Lane_Kiffin]

Yes. Now you have some teams having to win three extra playoff games just to get to the old championship game.

[Gant Boone @GantBoone]

You have a lot to learn about @Lane_Kiffin before you can professionally cover him. Don’t trust and damn sure verify. @NealMcCready may offer a crash course.

[Preston Guy @PGuy77]

Lane Kiffin did exactly what you asked @colecubelic. Verge Ausberry granted that wish too - he even asked Kiffin to stay with Ole Miss through the playoffs. Kiffin tried every tactic he could to try to continue coach at Ole Miss through the playoffs short of turning down a once in a lifetime opportunity - even some tactics I’m not in fond of.

Ole Miss refused. Ole Miss didn’t allow that to happen under any circumstances unless he signed an extension with Ole Miss. Ole Miss did not allow “hold on LSU I’ll come later.”

Ole Miss was only going to allow him to coach if the extension was signed - which would take the LSU job off the table.

[Gant Boone @GantBoone]

@KirkHerbstreit maybe you can show this to Jimmy Saban.

[Matt Bowers @_Matt_Bowers_]

Was getting key players to accept money to “opt out” and coaches to get on the plane today Nick Saban’s idea or Pete Carroll’s idea ?

LSU knew this was going to happen bc they sent 2 planes.

Truth is LSU is so desperate they will do whatever he asks or wants. It at least took 1 winning season to get Ole Miss to drop our pride. This starts Day 1 in Baton Rouge. I get it. Everyone is using each other. This guy was created and enabled. OM is just one party complicit in that.

[Shaune Holiday @ShauneHoliday]

@stephenasmith as a former athlete at Ole Miss when we host the playoff game, I would love to host you and show around Oxford, I bet you will change your mind. Give me a follow and let’s get it together. @Lane_Kiffin @OleMissFB @FirstTake

[Gant Boone @GantBoone]

If you’ve considered College Football broken/ruined/not worth it, then you need to watch this.

[Ole Miss Football @OleMissFB]

Had to give Dad a call 🥹

[Everything Ole Miss @EverythingRebs]

Tim Elko finding out he’s getting called up. A must watch.

Lets go, Captain

[Gant Boone @GantBoone]

@CFBPlayoff can you get together and institute a running clock in Happy Valley? #NailedIt #JustTellTheACCTheySuckNextYear

[The Grove Collective @grovecollectnil]

With only a little under a week to go, we’d like to extend a huge thank you to all of the local businesses that have sponsored the first annual Grove Collective Classic!! Nothing would be possible without the support of our community ⛳️

[Gant Boone @GantBoone]

Oxford and Ole Miss people need to take special note of these businesses pulling their weight to support our athletic programs and our community in general.

[The Grove Collective @grovecollectnil]

Hear from our partners at Obys who were the first to add the Round Up option to their checkout!

Customers can easily support Ole Miss athletes by rounding up each transaction to the nearest dollar at checkout.

@KeithCarterOM let the students in the upper level fill in the pathetic looking club areas tonight.

[Brad Logan @BradLoganTOC]

Ole Miss TE Caden Prieskorn is called for holding.

This is a horrendous call.

[Gant Boone @GantBoone]

@cable18 @drewmcgehee That’s cute. Tweet back when you take over Charles Schwab Field. I’ll save you a google search. It’s in Omaha NE.

[Keith O'Brien @KeithOB]

In 2020, at the end of his final year at Pitt, Damar Hamlin organized a toy drive for kids in his hometown of McKees Rocks, Pa. This is the young man who went down on the field tonight in Cincinnati. He is a man; not a number on a jersey. Prayers for Damar.

@DeionSanders @Lane_Kiffin I thought you guys might like this.
