He wanted him to become his new offensive coordinator. Many didn\u2019t think Kiffin was right for the job and that the marriage between the two would end quickly, but that wasn\u2019t the case.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>The partnership turned out to be profitable for both parties. It revitalized his career, which eventually landed him a position as head coach of Ole Miss, where he seems to be happy.<\/p>\n<p>But there have been openings over the years where Kiffin\u2019s name has been mentioned, including the Florida job, which may open up again soon; however, ESPN and SEC Network host Ryan McGee thinks there is only one place Kiffin may leave Ole Miss for: Alabama.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think he probably has one, maybe two jobs in his mind that he would really wrestle with if it came open. One of them is probably gonna come open, and one of them probably isn\u2019t. (Discusses Florida being the open option.)<\/p>\n<p>I think Alabama\u2019s the one. If Alabama calls, I don\u2019t care who you are- you return the call,\u201d McGee said Friday morning on <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/macandcube\/status\/1971575088777679114\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:McElroy and Cublic in the Morning;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">McElroy and Cublic in the Morning<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>It wouldn\u2019t shock many if the job became open again and the first call made would be to Kiffin, who Alabama fans still love, and he still loves them, too. Kiffin has nothing but praise for his former head coach for saving him, and his ties to the school are strong.<\/p>\n<p>So Kiffin seems to be happy, at least for now.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/sports.yahoo.com\/article\/espn-host-says-lane-kiffin-175536975.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ESPN host says Lane Kiffin would leave Ole Miss for only one job originally appeared on The Sporting News This week, ESPN unveiled a new documentary on Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin called \u201cThe Many Lives of Lane Kiffin,\u201d which premiered on September 24th.
