- I spoke with someone connected with NASCAR this evening who is furious with NASCAR's Steve O'Donnell. He said it was obvious to anyone who saw it that the rope was a pull cord, pointing out the handle was clearly fashioned for a hand and "might could hang a Barbie doll."
- CFP hot takes: 1. The G5 participation trophy was and is stupid. 2. Miami has zero quality wins. 3. Ole Miss has no one to blame but itself, but... 4. Alabama's 3-TD loss at OU should be disqualifying. 5. Indiana is awful. 6. Ohio State is getting way too much credit.
- It's not officially signed, but it's done. Lane Kiffin is Ole Miss' next head football coach. He'll arrive in Oxford Sunday. I expect the Ole Miss band to meet him there. He'll be announced officially on Monday, likely at the Pavilion at Ole Miss. @RivalsChase.
- Multiple sources telling me tonight Lane Kiffin to Ole Miss is as close to a done deal without being official as is possible. At this point, I expect an announcement Sunday.
- Hey you fucking liberals, you just elected him.
- If he were being a sycophant supporting Harris for nothing more than “joy,” you’d say nothing. Steve Kerr spoke at the DNC convention. Pearl is also allowed to be more than a basketball coach. You’re just upset that he’s not blindly on your team.
- For perspective, in case you're not aware, there is a pro-Confederate (whatever that is) rally on Oxford's Square today, about a mile from The Pavilion at Ole Miss, where Ole Miss is playing Georgia this afternoon.
- Lane Kiffin just said Matt Corral told him this week he is "1000 percent coming back" to Ole Miss in 2021.
- Lane Kiffin, Jaxson Dart taking pictures with the Egg Bowl trophy more than an hour after the game.
00:00 - Ulysses Bentley IV said he's been aware that he's been the subject of message board/social media debates this season. He said he's not gotten frustrated and has instead kept a positive attitude, knowing he's a leader on the Ole Miss team.
- Pete, you’re a better journalist than I’ll ever dream of being but come on. 🙄Fatal? No one died. You cover a sport where Penn State covered up a molester for decades, Baylor covered up a rape scandal and LSU boosters laundered money through a children’s hospital. Think a little.
- Classy gesture for former Ole Miss coach Kermit Davis to attend Senior Night ceremonies honoring, among others, his former players Matthew Murrell and Jaemyn Brakefield. Davis recruited both to Ole Miss.
