Ole Miss Sets Post–Egg Bowl Decision on Lane Kiffin as LSU Prepares Massive Offer

LSU is reportedly finalizing a seven-year, roughly $90 million proposal with significant NIL commitments.

Overview

  • After meeting Friday with Lane Kiffin and Chancellor Glenn Boyce, AD Keith Carter said Kiffin will coach the Nov. 28 Egg Bowl and that an announcement on his future is expected Nov. 29.
  • Multiple outlets report LSU is closing in on a package worth about $90 million over seven years with more than $25 million in annual roster/NIL funding, with Florida also pursuing Kiffin.
  • Reports note recent family scouting trips to Gainesville and Baton Rouge, and Kiffin previously notified Carter he intended to speak with other programs this cycle.
  • Kiffin has disputed reports that Ole Miss issued an ultimatum before the Egg Bowl, and On3 reports no decision has been made.
