Summary
- Plane spotted leaving Baton Rouge for Oxford on Monday
- Kiffin and family seen in Gainesville, Florida on Sunday
- Ole Miss giving Kiffin 1 week to decide on staying or leaving
The coaching carousel in the Southeastern Conference (SEC) is in full swing, with Lane Kiffin's future at Ole Miss becoming a major point of discussion. According to reports, a plane was seen leaving Baton Rouge, Louisiana for Oxford, Mississippi on Monday, indicating that Kiffin and his family may have been flown in to tour the LSU campus.
This development comes on the heels of a report that Kiffin and his family were spotted in Gainesville, Florida on Sunday, further fueling speculation that the Rebels' head coach is a top candidate for the open position at the University of Florida as well.
Kiffin has tried to downplay the rumors, stating after Ole Miss' win over the Florida Gators on Saturday that he "loves what we're doing here" and that any discussion about his future would be "disrespectful" to his players. However, The Athletic has reported that Ole Miss is giving Kiffin a week to decide whether he plans to remain in Oxford or explore other opportunities.
