Overview
- The Athletic reported an industry source sees a "modicum of interest" in Kiffin from the Tennessee Titans for their head-coaching vacancy.
- Kiffin is widely viewed as Florida’s top target, with LSU also expected to pursue him, according to multiple reports.
- Ole Miss athletic director Keith Carter said the school is being proactive on a new deal, and reporting describes communication with Kiffin as positive.
- Florida has contingency candidates if Kiffin declines, including Washington’s Jedd Fisch, Missouri’s Eli Drinkwitz and possibly Louisville’s Jeff Brohm, per The Athletic reporting cited by Newsweek.
- Speculation has surfaced about extreme retention scenarios such as a for-cause move, but those discussions are unconfirmed and remain conjectural.
