Lane Kiffin answers question about his future after win over Florida
Ole Miss is still facing an uncertain future following its 34-24 win over Florida on Saturday night.
Head coach Lane Kiffin has been rumored to be interested in multiple SEC openings this offseason, including the Gators’ job. After the win over Florida, Kiffin was asked if he planned to still be the head coach in Oxford next season.
Kiffin declined, saying it would be “disrespectful” to entertain the topic after the win.
“I love what we’re doing here,” Kiffin said. “Today was awesome. I don’t talk about that stuff. And really, to even talk about it right now would be disrespectful to our players and how well they played today.
“We’ve got a lot of things going here and doing really well.”
Ole Miss is closing in on its first-ever College Football Playoff berth. The Rebels are idle in Week 13 before their rivalry-game matchup against Mississippi State on Thanksgiving weekend.
As of this writing, Kiffin is still the favorite to be the next head coach at Florida, according to the latest market prices at Kalshi. Here’s a look at the market to be Florida’s next head coach:
