Joel Klatt Makes Lane Kiffin Prediction, Expects Biggest Mess In CFB History If He Leaves

Fox Sports College Football analyst Joel Klatt was on Colin Cowherd's show this week and discussed Lane Kiffin's situation at Ole Miss.

As of now, Klatt sees Kiffin taking the Florida job and predicts a major mess if he in fact leaves Ole Miss during this playoff run.

“Here’s the thing: If he wanted to stay, he would stay, and we would have already known it,” Klatt told Colin Cowherd. “Look at all the other coaches around the country who have said they’re staying or signed extensions. And Ole Miss, I know, has told him money is not a factor here. Whatever you get offered, we will match it. So it’s not that he’s going to make more somewhere else, which is starting to lead me to believe — and again, I will fully own that I have been all over the map on this — but Lane is a unique cat.

“Now, I don’t know if he can come back to Ole Miss. You can’t lead them on for this long. There’s going to start to be animosity. Like, ‘Why aren’t you signing an extension? What’s the problem?’ I think he’s going to Florida — I really do. I think he’s going to Florida and I think he’s going to be the next coach of the Gators, and I think we’re going to have one of the biggest messes in college football history go down before the Playoff when Lane Kiffin steps away from a College Football Playoff team and goes to coach another team.”
