Lane Kiffin agrees to new contract at Ole Miss after reportedly flirting with Auburn

Lane Kiffin has agreed to a new contract and extension with Ole Miss after reportedly flirting with the Auburn job.

Kiffin told ESPN about the new deal on Saturday:

“I didn’t want it to be about me staying before the game, but about the team,” Kiffin told ESPN. “I didn’t want it to be a distraction to where everybody was talking about me staying versus the players, which is why I wanted them to know it would be announced after the game.”

Ole Miss is expected to make an official announcement sometime this weekend.
