Lane Kiffin to add another Ole Miss assistant to his FAU staff

Adam Spencer | 7 years ago

New Florida Atlantic head coach Lane Kiffin found his defensive coordinator, brother Chris Kiffin, on the Ole Miss coaching staff.

Now, he may have found his special teams coordinator on Hugh Freeze’s staff as well.

According to FAUOwlAccess.com, Kiffin will hire Ole Miss safeties coach and special teams coordinator Corey Batoon to his FAU coaching staff.

Batoon confirmed he was leaving Ole Miss on Twitter Friday afternoon:

We want to thank Oxford and Rebelnation for 5 great years. Our time here has been a blessing. We are very excited to begin our new journey

— Corey Batoon (@coreybatoon) December 30, 2016

Though Kiffin already has his offensive coordinator in former Baylor offensive coordinator Kendal Briles, Freeze may want to watch his back to prevent any additional raids of his Oxford staff.
