In the latest development on Lane Kiffin’s departure from Ole Miss, multiple Rebels players have called out Kiffin’s exit statement for allegedly being inaccurate.

Kiffin released a statement over the weekend claiming that he had a desire to coach Ole Miss through the postseason, but was denied the opportunity to do so by athletic director Keith Carter.

Multiple rebels players took to social media to dispute this statement.

The posts immediately gained traction, sparking debate about the accuracy of Kiffin’s statement.

The Rebels named defensive coordinator Pete Golding as permanent head coach just hours after Kiffin’s departure became official.

Ole Miss will now turn their focus towards the postseason after moving up to No. 6 in the latest CFP Top 25.
