LSU's New Head Coach Lane Kiffin has made a dramatic exit from Ole Miss, sparking controversy over his departure. In a statement to fans, Kiffin explained that he had hoped to lead the team through the playoffs, but Athletic Director Keith Carter denied his request. The team had also asked Carter to allow Kiffin to stay on, to maintain their high level of performance. Instead, Kiffin's last game as coach was the Egg Bowl, and he has been replaced by defensive coordinator Pete Golding. Kiffin expressed gratitude to Ole Miss fans for their support during his six-year tenure, and has already set his sights on his new role at LSU. The move marks the end of an era for the Rebels, and fans are eager to see what the future holds for the team under Golding's leadership.
