The perpetual speculation and buzz surrounding Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin’s candidacy for the Auburn job hit such a fever pitch that it became difficult for Rebels players to tune out late in the season.
The perpetual speculation and buzz surrounding Kiffin’s candidacy hit such a fever pitch that it became difficult for Rebels players to tune out late in the season.
Ole Miss tried to ignore the speculation regarding its head coach, but after the WCBI report that Kiffin was heading to Auburn after Ole Miss’ regular-season finale against rival Mississippi State, the head coach held a team meeting to address it head-on the Monday before that game. “The whole team felt like it was just mind-clutter,” Evans said. “We started off the season 8-1. I mean, everybody wanted something to say. A lot of people didn’t like the success we were having, so we just got to stay together as a team and focus on the main thing, and that was winning.”Former Auburn players share silver lining of dealing with coaching changes as they prepare for NFL futures
