AHHhhh, to be Lane Kiffin!

Question

Lane Kiffin, the former Ole Miss coach who left the program last month for LSU, will receive a $500,000 bonus from his new employer thanks to his former team reaching the CFP semifinal via a thrilling 39-34 win over Georgia. The bonus is part of an agreement LSU reached with the coach to lure him from Oxford, offering him the same bonuses he would have received for each CFP victory had he staye d at Ole Miss.

Kiffin was already due a $250,000 bonus after the Rebels defeated Tulane in the first round. He now gets another $250,000 added to it for beating the Bulldogs. If they defeat No. 10 Miami in the next round, Kiffin will add another $250,000 to his tally for $750,000 total.

And if they were to win one more for the program’s first title in decades? His bonus total will climb to one of the most bittersweet $1 million payments in the history of sports.

He should give Kirby Smart half of the 250,000 he made last night.

He had all the assistants planning on going to LSU with him but staying to help UM in the CFP get a nap and be at LSU early this morning to work on LSU portal visitors today.

Hope he is sharing these with the assistants who have stayed to help Ole Miss get this far, but based on my prior experience with Kiffin, I am guessing he is not.
