There are significantly less tweets coming from the Ole Miss football coaching staff in 2026 compared to years past.
Head coach Pete Golding is a busy man. As he alluded to on Wednesday, he’s locked in on keeping Ole Miss football in the national discussion, which means he doesn’t have time for tweets and social media. The first-time head coach isn’t a veteran like LSU’s Lane Kiffin, who led the Rebels program from 2020-2025.
Kiffin is very online. He’s also a bit of a troll, as you can see in this post below, which features Golding taking a swing at The Masters in Augusta, Georgia.
On Wednesday, Golding was asked after practice “do you pay attention to stuff that happens on X, where you get mentioned by certain people?” Later, the reporter mentioned the golf clip from above, but he never actually mentions Kiffin. Golding’s reaction (as you can see below) indicates that he had seen the post.
Golding had the following to say:
“I really don’t. Obviously, I’ve got kids, I’ve got people that work here and all that. Things get brought up, or someone’ll send me a text message, so you definitely see certain things. I’m not good enough at this job to be on that all damn day and do this job. I don’t know how they do it. More power to ’em. I’ll learn one day.”
