ROBBERY: Lane Kiffin STEALING Ole Miss Staff, Players to POISON College Football Playoff Run
Episode 2495
Lane Kiffin’s LSU move ignites chaos for Ole Miss as the Rebels battle to protect their College Football Playoff dreams. Is Ole Miss’s historic 11-1 season about to be overshadowed by off-field drama and aggressive staff poaching? Steven Willis exposes the high-stakes standoff between Kiffin, athletic director Keith Carter, and the players—raising tough questions about loyalty, sabotage, and the power dynamics rocking SEC football.
Key topics include Kiffin’s ultimatum to his offensive staff, the threat of losing key players like Kewan Lacy through the transfer portal, and how media narratives amplified by agents like Jimmy Sexton and CAA may shape the Playoff Committee’s decisions. Steven Willis calls for Ole Miss to go on the offensive, urges unprecedented transparency, and ponders whether a room full of athletic directors will allow “bully tactics” to set a dangerous precedent in college football.
