Jeffrey Armstrong+FollowOle Miss players wanted Kiffin for CFP runPlayers at Ole Miss made it clear—they wanted Lane Kiffin to coach them through the College Football Playoff, even after he accepted the LSU job. The team’s leadership council voted 9-3 in favor of keeping Kiffin and his offensive staff for the playoff push, but the university’s athletic director shut it down. Now, Pete Golding steps in as head coach for the big game against Tulane. It’s a wild twist: the players’ voices were strong, but the administration had the final say. What do you think—should schools let outgoing coaches finish the season if the team wants it? #Sports #Football #OleMiss02Share

Christopher Hughes+FollowOle Miss playoff home game sparks NCAA debateOle Miss is set to host a College Football Playoff game in Oxford, but there’s a twist: new head coach Pete Golding can’t invite top recruits to watch from the stands. NCAA rules block schools from giving free tickets to prospects during playoff games, even when hosting. Many fans are calling this a missed opportunity—shouldn’t schools be able to showcase their program’s biggest moments to future stars? With ticket sales controlled by the playoff, recruits must pay their own way. Do you think this rule is fair, or does it hurt programs that earn a home playoff game? #Sports #Football #OleMiss00Share
