“Lying POS”: Fans Unimpressed as Lane Kiffin’s Latest Explanation for Ole Miss Departure Falls Flat
· Yahoo Sports
It’s been nearly six months since Lane Kiffin left the Ole Miss Rebels for the LSU Tigers in the middle of the season. The Rebels were playoff-bound and one of the strongest teams when Kiffin decided to part ways.
The conversations surrounding that subject are still ongoing. While it outlines the impact of Kiffin’s decision, it also serves as a bitter reminder for Rebels fans, and based on their recent reactions, they haven’t forgiven their former head coach.

During a recent podcast appearance, Kiffin was asked if, if he could go back and do things differently, he would. Kiffin said that he would change how he approached that situation.
“Yeah, I would’ve just came in and said, ‘Okay, I’m leaving. I’m very appreciative of everything.’ I spent a lot of time right there, fighting to coach the team, trying to keep everything together,” he said.
Kiffin wanted to coach the team through the playoffs, but his request was denied. So, if he could go back, he’d spend the last few days at Ole Miss thanking people and fans for everything instead of fighting a losing battle.
Despite Kiffin’s willingness to show that he valued his time with the Rebels, the fans weren’t buying anything he said.
“Lying POS. Cant help himself,” a fan wrote.
“Ew don’t want to watch more. This guy blows. You might get responses but no one is clicking on on this loser. Same old story. Same old wheel. Snoozefest. Glad my phone silenced his voice,” a fan wrote.
“You spent a lot of time lying. You spent a lot of time burning every single bridge in Oxford. You spent a lot of time trying to burn the program down. You’re despicable,” a fan wrote.
“Why is Lane doing a million interviews instead of running his program? Absolutely nobody from Ole Miss has thought about him since the season ended,” a fan wrote.
“Wait. Let me get this straight…you’re the victim?” a fan wrote.
There are so many comments under that post on X, calling Kiffin a “drama queen” and worse. The Rebels fans have nothing positive to say about their former head coach right now.
Lane Kiffin on How Everything Changed Instantly
Kiffin said he received a lot of love throughout his coaching tenure with the Rebels. Fans were respectful, and he felt like he was a part of that community. However, once he made his decision to leave, everything changed.
He talked about people being so angry that they chased his car on his way to the airport. Some fans even yelled at his 12-year-old nephew, who was walking with him.
On the other hand, the LSU fans, who hated Kiffin when he was with Ole Miss, suddenly started showing love and appreciation as soon as he landed.
