Lane Kiffin's run as the head coach at Ole Miss came to an end Sunday as he opted to leave for LSU. The 50-year-old Kiffin tried his best to pressure Ole Miss athletic director Keith Carter into allowing him to coach the Rebels in the upcoming College Football Playoff but in the end the school said no and Kiffin left town on a jet in front of angry fans who let him have it.
Kiffin led Ole Miss to a program-best 11-1 record in his sixth and final season and the Rebels are primed for a postseason run. But they will be doing it under the guidance of new head coach Pete Golding, and not Kiffin.
