Alabama offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin will interview for Houston's head coaching job after the Tide plays Florida in the SEC Championship Game, SB Nation reported Friday.
That could complicate LSU's plans to pursue Kiffin for the offensive coordinator job under newly-hired coach Ed Orgeron. Kiffin and Orgeron are close friends and Kiffin is reportedly his No. 1 target.
Houston is seeking a replacement for Tom Herman, who left for the head coaching job at Texas. FOrmer LSU coach Les Miles is also a candidate for the Houston job. Miles was fired by LSU Sept. 25 and replaced on an interim basis by Orgeron.
