Lane Kiffin is leaving Ole Miss to take over the head coaching job at LSU, and people have strong opinions about the move. On Sunday, ESPN’s Marty Smith caught up with Kiffin before he departed Oxford for Baton Rouge, and got the 50-year-old coach to explain the decision.
Kiffin discussed the reasons he ultimately decided to leave Ole Miss for LSU, but also gave insight into conversations he had with his mentors, Pete Carroll and Nick Saban. One thing Carroll said stood out.
