The weeks-long coaching saga around Lane Kiffin is coming to a brutal end, with the head coach burning all the bridges he built at the program. It is now clear that Kiffin is leaving Oxford for Baton Rouge. However, the breakup is going worse than the program would have hoped.

Ahead of the big announcement, Kiffin made it clear that he wanted his assistants to follow his footpath to the next home. At this stage, reports seemed to confirm that Kiffin isn’t leaving alone, as a coaching staff made the decision to follow him to his next home.

According to AYS Sports’ report on X, Charlie Weis Jr., who has been with the Ole Miss coaching staff since 2022 and is currently serving as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for the Rebels, is planning to follow Lane Kiffin to LSU. The decision means that when Ole Miss plays next in the playoffs, they won’t be just without their head coach. Even their offensive playcaller will not be on the sidelines. 

To make matters worse, more exits are in the pipeline, as Lane Kiffin has allegedly given an ultimatum to his staff that if they don’t join him on his flight to LSU, they won’t be a part of his staff at Baton Rouge. This comes a day after reports of Lane Kiffin wanting to lead Ole Miss in the playoffs while taking over the head coach position at LSU.

This is a developing story…
