The rumors of Lane Kiffin going to Florida were already at a fever pitch; Billy Napier's getting fired mid-season made them reach new heights. The program announced Sunday that they will be parting ways with Napier following a 3-4 start to the season.
The Gator nation was already lobbying Kiffin since 2024 to take on the head coaching role at Gainesville, and now they are on tiptoes for the front office to give the Ole Miss head coach a call.
Florida legend Steve Spurrier was positive in Kiffin having a bright future in the Swamp -- National Championship-level future.
