Lane Kiffin announced this afternoon that he has taken the head coaching job at LSU and will not be finishing the season at Ole Miss.
“After a lot of prayer and time spent with family, I made the difficult decision to accept the head coaching position at LSU,” Kiffin said in a statement.
Kiffin said he was hoping to complete the season with the Rebels, who are 11-1 and head to the College Football Playoff, but his request was denied by Ole Miss administration.
