Candidates to replace Kiffin at UM…
- Thread starter HulksStache
- Start date
That’s about as easy of a move as it gets.
Only problem is they may have competition for him from Arkansas, Auburn, maybe even LSU.
Yep. This is shaping up to be a bad year to be looking for a coach if you don't get your guy locked up early.
Sumrall
Petrino
Franklin
Golding
Golesh
that’s the 5 I think they’d interview and have a shot at.
I pray if kiffin does leave they just promote Golding and it goes bad

They should be reaching out to him now. Arkansas and Auburn could be tough competition for them. But if LSU fires Kelly, they will sort of be in teh same position as UF. That will be an upgrade for them, but fans may still be pissed about hiring a coach that was just fired for not winning enough big games. I think Franklin and Kiffin appear to be the two best bets out there, but a lot of fans would rather have an up and comer who in theory has an unlimited ceiling over a coach that has already supposedly hit it.
I think that's somewhat stupid and doesn't take into account how much luck is still involved plus the ability for coaches to grow or hire better assistants, and grossly underestimates the risk that someone has caught lightning in a bottle at a lower level and won't be able to replicate it (well high there sunbelt billy). But it seems to be the attitude of a lot of fans.
Chris Kleiman and lance Leipold were 2 names we discussed on here several years ago , wonder if they could get a sec job whether that be ole miss or not
That's just sad. I know he's has three 10 win seasons, but that makes him their "Saban"?
And, yeah, I know Mullen only had one 10 win season and three 9 win seasons....that's why he wasn't our "Saban".
Heard from Siskey that Andy Reid and Sean McVay are angling for the job. Neither have the pedigree the Rebels are looking for and will likely do the easy thing and hire Saban.
I have no real reason. Just seems to me like he would be a better fit at Virginia Tech or UCLA.
Unfortunately they have a competent AD this time around, so if Lane does leave the odds of them hiring a total buffoon are lower than they would have been 10 years ago.
I really don't think they gave Matt Luke enough of a chance, I'd encourage ole miss to go back to him with their hat in their hand
Barney Farrar should be available
Kiffin isnt going to Florida . Who wants to work for that crapshow Athletic Department
I'm available, would cost a lot less, and understand that I am a scapegoat as "the guy who followed Kiffin." C'mon, Ole Miss, make it happen. I'll do the best possible job that I can. (wink, wink, nudge, nudge)
He ain't going anywhere because he ain’t going to have any real offers. Sexton will spread rumors otherwise, of course.
That would be the best coaching decision for State in years. Let’s hope he goes there.
And be the highest paid coach in CFB… massive buyout…. Major boost in NIL… live in FLA. vs Oxford…no state income tax…yeah who would take the FLA job… crazy
Honestly great take. Coach for 3 years and get the $50M+ buyout and call it a day
Pete Golding, supposedly, if Kiffin leaves. Plan is to save money on the HC salary and dump more into NIL. Bold strategy.
