Paul Finebaum joined CNN to discuss the “Kim Kardashian of college football” and his recent departure from Oxford.
Lane Kiffin, who was once the Miley Cyrus of college football, according to Finebaum, has now been renamed the Kim Kardashian of college football. However, this was only the start of Finebaum’s rant against Kiffin’s actions. He went on to highlight Kiffin’s past stops and his departures from there and how in each spot he left on bad terms. Finebaum went on to say that it’s not surprising that Kiffin walked out.
“…[A]nd on the eve of the College Football Playoff, what does Lane Kiffin do? What Lane Kiffin always does,” Finebaum said. “He burns down the house that he built to go to another school that’s better.”
According to Finebaum, fans shouldn’t be surprised by Kiffin’s actions. He’s done it at every stop so far, and it was just a matter of time before it happened to Ole Miss. Yet, that doesn’t make it any easier to swallow as Ole Miss fans. He left the team high and dry on the brink of the College Football Playoff.
LSU will take on Ole Miss next year in Oxford, a game that’s already being circled.
