Ole Miss' Lane Kiffin Says Alabama Has Edge Because It Can 'Cherry-Pick' Transfers

Ole Miss football head coach Lane Kiffin referenced Alabama's success in the NCAA transfer portal as one of the reasons the Crimson Tide have such a historically talented program.

"Now they go to cherry-pick players for any holes they may have like an Ohio State receiver [Jameson Williams] or a Tennessee linebacker [Henry To'o To'o]," Kiffin said, per ESPN's Alex Scarborough.

"So now, it's like not only do they get the best draft picks but they get to go into free agency and take players, so it really is going to set up one of the most talented teams ever, which is what we're getting ready to play.
