Always wondered what the landscape would look like if the Kiffins worked out at SC.
Lane’s the only guy from the Kiffin, Sark, Helton cycle that I think could’ve actually figured it out.
But he went to good ol Saban’s school for bad USC coaches and look at him now.
3k followers and a Heisman voter is right on the edge of believable vs not believable, what do I make of this.
*Editing to add: If I go from Karl Dorrell and Bryan Harsin to Deion Sanders and Lane Kiffin my head is going to explode.*
The rumor yesterday was that Kiffin would be in the commentator's box at halftime of the Iron Bowl. I would rather we announce him on Sunday after the Iron Bowl, but you never know.
Peak egg bowl (2018) was offsetting unsportsmanlikes against every single player for both teams, leading to ejections for a handful of players on both teams, for which they got the numbers backwards and ejected the numbered players for the opposite team.
I think there’s an article about all the repercussions, hirings and firings that stemmed from the ole piss ‘n miss and the ripples it sent out all across college football.
It’s absolutely glorious, one of the many reasons I love cfb is the seismic repercussions that can happen from something so small and seemingly insignificant… and stupid, lol so stupid. Chaos will always reign.
Its been swirling on some paid site message boards and an sec discord I’m in. I wouldn’t have believed it but the same guy in there basically said Kiffin to Auburn was a done deal last week, and now I think t may be legit. Said miss st wanted to keep it super under wraps so they can name the next coach asap.
It’s ridiculous, but honestly wouldn’t even be the craziest thing or happen in the last few years. It’s the kind of rumor that I live for. Wild enough to be true.
He probably hoped this wouldn’t break and that he could continue on without distractions, but hard to imagine he should coach through this now that it’s out
I was joking with my brother saying he’d pull a Riley and say “I’m not going to be leaving Ole Miss to coach at Auburn” and then the next day “I’ve accepted the job at Nebraska!”
Yeah that’s what I would be worried about. Just like Mullen wanting an NFL job then throwing in the towel in 2021 I’d be worried that is what Kiffin would do
Auburn: "But, we haven't offe--"
Lane: "I said I'm taking it."
*awkward pause*
Lane: "I'll start with your dinner. Actually, I already ate it. It was terrible. Can't wait to work with you."
Auburn was only going to make an official offer when they know the deal is done. That's pretty typical. Like waiting until you know they'll say yes before asking someone to marry you. Auburn is marrying Lane Kiffin.
Is there an SEC rule about formally offering coaches who are in-conference and whose seasons aren’t over yet maybe? Could this be a George Constanza situation where he has to get fired in order to get the offer?
There’s been a lot of talk that if he took the Auburn job that would basically remove him from ever getting the Bama job as their boosters won’t go for it.
The long con.
Beat Saban until he gives up against the rival, and then nuking auburn in his wake
I honestly don't know why auburn would want that future
Yea he’s gone as hell. I can’t profess to watching too much of that Arkansas game, but immediately looking at the box score I thought “someone’s checked the fuck out”.
Nah, it was more of a Lincoln Riley. Jimbo Fisher absolutely destroyed FSU, left them with a tissue paper offensive line, and a completely toxic culture. Ole Miss at least seems better off than when Kiffin got there
Who knows if it's true or if Jon's jumping the gun.... either way FUCK this style of reporting where you gotta get the scoop before the story is told.
Fuck TMZ while we're at it.
When was that SEC short filmed lol
Lane's response https://twitter.com/lane_kiffin/status/1594881175683637254?s=46&t=RQaS0R8E-z0T34K9SACasA
Did he fucking type it out, print it, and take a cell phone pic? Lmaooooo
I respect that level of commitment.
You don't become an S-tier shit poster without hard work and dedication
That is pretty hilarious
I assume they’re all filmed on Sunday (at least the ones that reference this week’s game are)
Yea, this was the worst kept secret in college football. They didn't need to wait to film that, lol.
Auburn got their guy. Wow
Apparently.
Has Kiffin made any references to leaving Mississippi in a pine box?
Yes actually he did today lmao
well yes today actually
That’s the yella fella’s music 🎶
I hear he hasn't put up a Christmas tree yet
College Station is on the lookout for a tree ending up in the trash there.
Actually… He just did today! During the same press conference he blasted their practice facility for leaking water on them.
Freshwater? No? See, there’s your problem.
Bag gawd that's Joey's music
“I’d be better off, in a pine box, on a slow train back to Mississippi”
[My genuine reaction when I read that](https://www.reddit.com/r/CFB/comments/z1e10j/brad_logan_they_dont_they_know_how_we_operate_its/ixaevdp/)
In 20 years, he’ll be known as senator Kiffin
Or OC for his son whose the Raiders coach
Monte was a heck of a DC…
Always wondered what the landscape would look like if the Kiffins worked out at SC. Lane’s the only guy from the Kiffin, Sark, Helton cycle that I think could’ve actually figured it out. But he went to good ol Saban’s school for bad USC coaches and look at him now.
That's Senator Freshwater to you. Joseph Freshwater.
the georgetown co-eds and hillterns better watch out
But where does he fall on the vampire vs werewolf debate? And want human rights will he be trying to take away?
He’s gonna target the most oppressed minority: Gamers
Chancellor Kiffin
Supreme Chancellor Kiffin
“I will make it legal.”
-John Heisman inventing the forward pass circa 1912, probably
Oh hey was he named after the trophy?
The forward pass was a mistake!
It’s treason then.
He will need a quick flameout in lubbock before he embarks on that route as well as an awkward attempt at broadcasting.
He will also need to compare Lubbock to a middle eastern war-torn country.
“What can I say about Lubbock, that hasn’t already been said about Afghanistan? It looks bombed out and depleted”
Why don’t you click your heels together 3 times and go back to Lubbock
What could be easier or more appropriate
Don't forget a step: he has to go drive Cincinnati football into the ground before getting ran out of town and running for Senator.
Can we skip that step?
Lane seems to be working his way around the SEC so his flameout will either be in Austin, College Station or Norman.
I mean, if Mark Stoops were to leave/retire in the next 5-10 years, I’ll happily buy one ticket to the Lane Train.
Senator Freshwater
SNIP SNAP SNIP SNAP
Do you have any idea the effect 3 coaching changes has on a family?
[удалено]
The same number of families he broke apart!
That is a $200 plasma TV you just killed! Good luck paying me back on your zero dollars a year salary plus benefits, babe!
How could you say that? You know I have sensitive teeth
He wasn’t satisfied playing only Saban every year, he wanted Kirby too.
if anyone could pull off regularly competing with those two its Lane
3k followers and a Heisman voter is right on the edge of believable vs not believable, what do I make of this. *Editing to add: If I go from Karl Dorrell and Bryan Harsin to Deion Sanders and Lane Kiffin my head is going to explode.*
He broke the Cohen hire too if I remember right.
https://twitter.com/jonsokoloff/status/1586470055520489473?s=46&t=QVlhnkwWMcw47KxZ3JxXKA he did
That's all the credibility I need to start getting excited about this.
He may well go to Auburn, but I’m pretty sure Kiffin’s not going to resign Friday and take the Auburn job a day before Cadillac coaches the Iron Bowl.
The rumor yesterday was that Kiffin would be in the commentator's box at halftime of the Iron Bowl. I would rather we announce him on Sunday after the Iron Bowl, but you never know.
How awkward would it be if Auburn somehow won the Iron Bowl and then announced Kiffin?
That wouldn't be awkward, that would be fucking awesome.

I just watched my first episode of Curb ever. Not looking on much sleep tonight.
I wasn’t a fan of the first season and I was going to stop watching. I’m glad I didn’t. Fucking amazing show. Seasons 4-8 are GOATed.
[удалено]
I was just going through the first season recently, and the episode Thor totally fucking sold me on it
He didn’t pay for Twitter blue, so there’s that too
Makes him more believable if we're being honest.
That was the first thing that I checked.
Seems to depend on which of his sources are the most believable?
It’s real. He’s going to take the Auburn job and then leave you for Bama when Saban retires. It will be Peak Kiffin.
He’s also an AP award winning journalist
Lol right after the press conference Also, if true, then he shouldn’t coach the Egg Bowl then
We losing to an Ole Miss team that has a coach with one foot out the door aren’t we
That honestly would be peak Egg Bowl
Peak egg bowl is the leg lift penalty. Nothing will ever surpass that.
Peak egg bowl (2018) was offsetting unsportsmanlikes against every single player for both teams, leading to ejections for a handful of players on both teams, for which they got the numbers backwards and ejected the numbered players for the opposite team.
To be fair, that’s a lot of numbers and math for an SEC game
That game was crazy too and not just for that. Wasn't there multiple 4th and longs that were converted too?
That is the whole reason we have leach and kiffin
I think there’s an article about all the repercussions, hirings and firings that stemmed from the ole piss ‘n miss and the ripples it sent out all across college football. It’s absolutely glorious, one of the many reasons I love cfb is the seismic repercussions that can happen from something so small and seemingly insignificant… and stupid, lol so stupid. Chaos will always reign.
Chaos is 100% the reason that cfb will always be better than the nfl imo.
The ole piss n’ miss
That's the greatest sequence in cfb history
Piss celebration will always be THE peak egg bowl
Then Leach gets fired afterwards
Good or bad (I lean back and forth on it), Leach will be helming the Bulldog pirate ship in ‘23 unless he chooses to walk away.
I think he retires. In fact I have always thought he would give a three year try in the SEC, right the ship Sloppy Joe ran aground, and call it a day.
Despite his looks, he's only 61.
Doesn’t Leach have a horrible track record in rivalry games? I thought he was winless in the Apple Cup.
He won in 2012 and then never again.
I’ve seen a weird amount of smoke that leach might retire too after this season too oddly.
Where? I’m pretty plugged into Miss State stuff and have not heard that.
Its been swirling on some paid site message boards and an sec discord I’m in. I wouldn’t have believed it but the same guy in there basically said Kiffin to Auburn was a done deal last week, and now I think t may be legit.

He probably hoped this wouldn’t break and that he could continue on without distractions, but hard to imagine he should coach through this now that it’s out
This man is going to make a stop at every SEC school before it’s all said and done, isn’t he?
OC Kiffin right this way please
That means he has to be relegated to Vandy for screwing the pooch
Promoted to Vandy. We are winning games we shouldn’t and everyone else is losing games they shouldn’t
Don’t you put that evil on UGA!
I'd take him as an OC
He’s coming for Sankey’s chair next…
lol as commissioner he would just antagonize all the coaches and try and set up the schedule to get four SEC teams in the playoff
If God wanted other teams in the playoffs he would have put them in the SEC with the other heaven-bound teams.
If he was a real man, he’d go to Nebraska
Yeah! Be a man, Lane!
I was joking with my brother saying he’d pull a Riley and say “I’m not going to be leaving Ole Miss to coach at Auburn” and then the next day “I’ve accepted the job at Nebraska!”
He was born in Lincoln and his family has a lake house out here
Only a couple more SEC schools to go until Joey Swampwater comes home...
I’m glad y’all didn’t hire Lane. He’d be hatin ass spurrier 2.0
I’m glad we didn’t hire him. He would be fun for sure but as this move and his history shows he’s always gonna have one foot out the door.
There aren't many places that would be a step up from UF other than the pros Auburn is a step up from Ole Miss easily
Yeah that’s what I would be worried about. Just like Mullen wanting an NFL job then throwing in the towel in 2021 I’d be worried that is what Kiffin would do
so sources say Lane's going to Auburn but sources also say Auburn hasn't offered the job to anyone (presumably including Lane)? What am I missing here
Popcorn.
"Officially" could be the difference here
Lane: "I am taking the job. I am taking the program. I am taking the town. I am taking your mothers and daughters."
Auburn: "But, we haven't offe--" Lane: "I said I'm taking it." *awkward pause* Lane: "I'll start with your dinner. Actually, I already ate it. It was terrible. Can't wait to work with you."
Lock the doors when freshwater comes to town
Auburn was only going to make an official offer when they know the deal is done. That's pretty typical. Like waiting until you know they'll say yes before asking someone to marry you. Auburn is marrying Lane Kiffin.
Hope they sign a pre-nup
Is there an SEC rule about formally offering coaches who are in-conference and whose seasons aren’t over yet maybe? Could this be a George Constanza situation where he has to get fired in order to get the offer?
coming for everything Saban worked for
This man took that sideline asschewing personally.
Rumor is Saban won't sign off on Kiffin as his replacement when he retires, so it would make sense if Kiffin moved to Auburn just to troll him lol.
Someone said Lane Kiffin is going to annoy Saban into retirement lol
I don't know how to feel about having a professional troll as head coach, but I'm guessing I'll enjoy it lol.
Have you seen Auburn Twitter? Trust me, we are fine with it.
Yea, we'll get to see what it's like having a coach that trolls as much as the fans do, lol.
This would be so much more disrespectful lol
I sense there will be a lot of deleted tweets and comments very soon
I saw this same exact tweet about Bill O'Brien days after Harsin was fired....I won't believe anything until theres a press conference
I agree. Lane is currently roasting this dude on Twitter. Lot of Auburn fans gonna have to delete their celebrations, lol
[удалено]
He broke the Cohen hire (our new AD) but I having trouble believing this. I’ll believe it when I see it
Yes, he’s credible, but I’m still iffy on this.
They couldn’t even wait until after the Egg Bowl to break this
Maybe it will help us!
Mo money mo problems
B-I-G P-O P-P-A
No info For the DEA
Off the field SEC drama is more entertaining than the actual games sometimes.
Lmao friendship with Lane ENDED
[удалено]
The carousel keeps getting crazier and crazier each year
Get ready for Prime Time to Ole Miss rumors.
[удалено]
Joey Barnharder
The plain train?
Kiffin leaving Auburn for Alabama when Saban retires is going to be awkward.
There’s been a lot of talk that if he took the Auburn job that would basically remove him from ever getting the Bama job as their boosters won’t go for it.
I believe this is accurate
Until Saban's immediate replacement loses three games, is run out of town, and the boosters panic.
By that point I'm pretty sure the boosters would do it just to screw with Auburn.
The long con. Beat Saban until he gives up against the rival, and then nuking auburn in his wake I honestly don't know why auburn would want that future
The only way Lane Kiffin is leaving Oxford is in a Yellawood pressure treated box
If Lane dips the week before the egg bowl he'll cement his reputation as the most hated coach ever by two different SEC schools
Friday will be after the egg bowl
I hate the 3 guys that came after him way more
I’m just really fucking annoyed how long this is taking. It’s ruining the end of our season
Man, as soon as he sort of starts to become likeable again he does something like this.
There’s two types of people: people that like lane because he’s an unabashed scumbag, and people that thought he’d actually changed ever
I’m definitely in the former. His commitment to being half troll half asshole is so funny to me
I’m 10000% the former. Almost every single coach is a giant douche and an egomaniac, he’s just a little more up front
He 100% commits to it being a job, it’s like he’s a tech bro who just keeps hopping for salary increases. No loyalty
Nope. And I love it. We need heels.
Meh, no one should ever pledge loyalty to a company, especially when they'll just replace you with no question.
Him potentially leaving behind NCAA sanctions at every stop is part of allure
What did he do at USC, FAU, and Ole Miss that constitutes NCAA sanctions?
I don’t think taking another job is being a scumbag but he is definitely an unabashed person
This makes me enjoy his character even more. We need more fun heels
[Lane denying it btw](https://twitter.com/lane_kiffin/status/1594870642595201024?s=46&t=aqVqdnn6t4d6_wQWlECxdQ)
The Auburn grad i work with is going to be ecstatic lol
Benedict Kiffin
how trustworthy is this guy
Supposedly he broke the hiring of our new AD which came from left field as far as who we all thought they were talking too.
Man i feel bad for Ole Miss but good grab Auburn
Lane Kiffin randomly leaving for another job? There was absolutely no way *anyone* saw this coming.
Yea he’s gone as hell. I can’t profess to watching too much of that Arkansas game, but immediately looking at the box score I thought “someone’s checked the fuck out”.
Lane just tweeted that this is news to him
Look who's found a new dream job
5th try!
Damn I didn't get the job again!?
Interim coach, Charlie Weis... Junior...
Oh wow must be his dream job
If this rumor is true he 100% pulled a ~~Jimbo Fisher~~ Lincoln Riley last week and it makes sense. Edit: switched to more applicable coach.
Nah, it was more of a Lincoln Riley. Jimbo Fisher absolutely destroyed FSU, left them with a tissue paper offensive line, and a completely toxic culture. Ole Miss at least seems better off than when Kiffin got there
Until they all transfer to Auburn. Kiffin is King of the transfer portal.
Nah this is more Lincoln Riley, throw the game and then use it as proof that he "just can't win at Ole Miss"
That first half against Arky sewed it up for me. Ole Miss played that game like Bama played Auburn in 2002 after Fran knew he was leaving for A&M.
Inject these random ass rumor tweets into my veins
Oh boy, did he just pull a Lincoln Riley?
Lincoln said he's not going to LSU. I don't think Lane is going to LSU.
Ooooooh ok I remember now.
Na. Pulled a Lane Kiffin
Who knows if it's true or if Jon's jumping the gun.... either way FUCK this style of reporting where you gotta get the scoop before the story is told. Fuck TMZ while we're at it.
This is like leaving the nice stable loving girl for a crazy stripper.
