Ole Miss football head coach Lane Kiffin knew exactly how he wanted his players to take the coaching carousel rumors.
That is why he knew exactly what to say when addressing the coaching rumors with his locker room ahead of their Oklahoma game.
"I just told them, ‘Hey, this happens every year here. So this isn’t new, but a lot of you guys are new.' So all it is is a credit to the program and the coaches and players for doing well and having the success we have. So that’s all that’s a product of and it shouldn’t be a distraction," Kiffin had said to ESPN's Molly McGrath.
