Ole Miss Coach Lane Kiffin is expected to announce a major decision regarding his career in college football on November 29, 2025. The 50-year-old coach could leave his position as the school’s head football coach for Louisiana State University, and fans are anxiously awaiting an answer.
About one week before the projected decision day, Ole Miss athletic director Keith Carter said on November 21 that he and Kiffin “have had many pointed and positive conversations regarding his future at Ole Miss, including meeting today with Chancellor [Glenn] Boyce.”
“While we discuss next steps, we know we cannot lose sight of what is most important − our sixth-ranked team that is poised to finish the season in historic fashion,” Carter said.
