Lane Kiffin Tells ESPN A Bunch Of Schools Have Reached Out About Job Openings

Eventually, I see Lane Kiffin taking a job at a bigger school, but for now he remains Florida Atlantic University's head football coach. Though, he did tell ESPN several schools have already reached out to him about job openings. Per ESPN...

Kiffin says there were conversations with several schools gauging his interest in their job openings, declining to say which ones. That should not come as a shock. Many have wondered how long he will stay in this job, viewed among outsiders as a stepping-stone to something bigger.

He says he sees it differently, that he is happy at FAU, living in South Florida in relative anonymity. He says he is not coaching for another job, the way many others do in their quest to move up the ladder. He calls last season one of the most gratifying of his career.

But as long as he keeps winning here, the calls from suitors will keep coming. Much bigger schools will make much bigger offers, believing a rehabilitated Kiffin has moved past his early career mistakes. Then he will have a decision to make.
