Lane Kiffin, Caleb Williams exchange playful jabs ahead of USC practice

Lane Kiffin never seems to miss an opportunity to generate some interest on social media, and the latest example came this week when he poked fun at Southern Cal quarterback Caleb Williams.
Kiffin pounced on a video of Williams jogging to practice and somehow missing the entrance to the stadium.
The Trojans bring a perfect storm of sorts for Kiffin’s prolific tweeting, because he’s active on social media, and is familiar with USC from when he coached the Trojans from 2010 to 2013. He also isn’t shy to troll a prominent athlete.

Williams after practice shared his thoughts on his transition from Oklahoma.
“It’s been weird. I didn’t really expect to be here, but I’m here now,” he said, via 247Sports. “We have a lot of similarities from workouts, verbiage and language, talking to coaches, talking to the strength staff. It’s a lot of the same language because a bunch of coaches came here from (Oklahoma), my old school. It’s just a little weird because you have new colors, new logos, but it’s been really fun.”
