The former Tennessee head coach and Alabama assistant is close to agreeing to a deal to become the next head coach at Ole Miss, per multiple reports. Kiffin would replace Matt Luke after Luke was surprisingly fired following a 4-8 season.
It's not officially signed, but it's done. Lane Kiffin is Ole Miss' next head football coach. He'll arrive in Oxford Sunday. I expect the Ole Miss band to meet him there. He'll be announced officially on Monday, likely at the Pavilion at Ole Miss. @RivalsChase.
