College football's most-wanted coach might ditch his team before it can play for a national title.
Ole Miss enters the final weeks of the college football season in the mix to win a national championship. Yet as soon as Saturday, before the College Football Playoff even begins, it could also lose its coach.
When the Rebels, who are 10-1 and ranked No. 6 in the latest playoff rankings, face rival Mississippi State on Friday, their fans could be excused for thinking more about two other Southeastern Conference opponents. After having fired their coaches earlier this season, LSU and Florida have spent recent weeks wooing Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin.
LSU officials "have discussed a seven-year, incentive-laden deal worth at least $90 million," Yahoo reported recently, in addition to commitments to spend around $25 million more on building a roster. The salary could climb toward $100 million over seven years, The Athletic reported. Those figures could make Kiffin, who earns $9 million annually, among the highest-paid coaches in the sport and perhaps rank at the top. Florida and Ole Miss have reportedly matched such an offer.
