29 Nov, 2025
Summary
- Lane Kiffin confronted a reporter for calling him a 'hoe' metaphorically.
- A fight erupted on the field during Ole Miss's Egg Bowl game.
- Kiffin is deciding between LSU and staying at Ole Miss.
Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin engaged in a heated exchange with reporter Ben Garrett following the Egg Bowl. Garrett had previously described Kiffin's job-switching habits by saying, "you can't turn a hoe into a housewife." Kiffin confronted Garrett post-game, expressing his lack of respect for the comment, which he felt was a direct insult.
The emotional confrontation occurred after a game that also saw a brawl on the field as players scrambled for a loose ball. Kiffin, whose team has an 11-1 record, is a sought-after coach and is reportedly deciding between coaching for LSU or remaining at Ole Miss. The Florida job is no longer an option.
With Kiffin's future uncertain, speculation continues to surround his next career move. The coach's reaction to the reporter's comments highlights the intensity of the coaching carousel and the personal nature of criticism within college football.
