According to sources, a formal press conference is set for Monday to introduce Kiffin as the new coach of the Tigers. A massive seven-year contract worth around $100 million has been offered to Kiffin, making him one of the highest-paid coaches in college football. The deal would see him leave Ole Miss after six seasons and a 55-19 record. Kiffin's departure from the Rebels is imminent, with defensive coordinator Pete Golding expected to take over as interim head coach. The 55-year-old coach currently earns a base salary of $9 million at Ole Miss and has a contract that runs through December 31, 2030. Sources close to the situation indicate that Kiffin has made it clear his intention to join LSU and is expected to make a decision later today. A team meeting initially scheduled for Sunday has been pushed back to 1 p.m. CT, fueling speculation that a move is imminent. "
