Daytime Fireworks: Ole Miss' Lane Kiffin is nothing if not brutally honest
We are back with yet another episode of “Daytime Fireworks”. This edition we welcome in our friend, the man, the myth, the legend, David Brandt of the Associated Press. On this episode, we are discussing UCLA head coach Chip Kelly’s recent quote on the Independent model in college football, Rick Neuheisel and Ole Miss storytime and Lane Kiffin‘s honest assessment of the landscape of the game in 2023.
The first segment is about none other than former Washington head coach turned television personality recapping his courtship between former Ole Miss athletic director Pete Boone and chancellor Robert Khayat. He details the final conversations with Ole Miss on Chris Childers’ radio show “Full Ride” on Sirius XM.

Next, we dive into Chip Kelly’s idea for Power 5 and Group of Five football teams. He likes the idea of everyone being Independent, like Notre Dame, and just having two mega conferences who compete for two separate titles. We talk about how, although the sentiment is there, it ultimately could jeopardize the fabric of college football and why we all love it.
And finally, the episode concludes with a breakdown of Lane Kiffin’s quote on the culture and recruiting landscape for the Rebels, the Southeastern Conference and beyond. He was honest about roster building, locker room culture and keeping 85 players locked in and ready week in and week out.
