Cole Cubelic ripped Lane Kiffin to shreds on McElroy and Cubelic in the Morning for leaving Ole Miss ahead of its College Football Playoff appearance. Cubelic’s message was simple: “Finish the job.”
As many college football fans know, Kiffin has left Ole Miss to become the next head coach of the LSU Tigers. While it was reported that Kiffin asked to finish the season with the Rebels and was denied that ability, Cubelic and others believe he should’ve never been negotiating with LSU until his season had ended.
“You got this team to the playoff, and you walked. It’s unforgivable in my opinion. I don’t care what jobs open. I don’t care if it’s the Dallas Cowboys. I don’t care if it’s the freaking Monstars,” Cubelic said. “Like, you don’t leave your team before you’re going to the playoffs. You can’t do it, man.”
Cubelic then went on to rip Kiffin for using his leverage against Ole Miss and not LSU. He believes Kiffin should’ve forced LSU’s hand and, if the Tigers really wanted him, made them wait for him to finish the season.
Many have turned to the college football calendar and looked to blame the Kiffin drama on that, but Cubelic shut that down quickly.
