One of the biggest stories in college football over the past few hours centers on Lane Kiffin and the Ole Miss Rebels. The coach is set to decide his future, and his potential departure could open the door for several candidates to succeed him.
While nothing has been confirmed yet, rumors are strong regarding Kiffin’s move to the LSU Tigers, who parted ways with Brian Kelly weeks ago. With the head coaching position potentially opening up at Ole Miss, two candidates are emerging as frontrunners.
According to a recent report on X by Neil McCready, Pete Golding or Joe Judge could take over the team’s reins, at least on an interim basis, as they look ahead to the CFP.
Additionally, reporter John Talty, also via his official X account, reported that there’s a strong chance most of Kiffin’s coaching staff would follow him to the Tigers if his departure is confirmed — except for DC Pete Golding, who is expected to remain at Ole Miss.
