LSU head coach Lane Kiffin is at it again. The man who has turned his social media presence into a must-follow sideshow for SEC fans has a new target: his former colleague, Ole Miss head coach Pete Golding.
The latest chapter in Kiffin's online playbook unfolded when Ole Miss shared a video from a team Par 3 golf tournament featuring Golding taking a swing. Never one to miss an opportunity, Kiffin quickly quoted the post with a jab that only those deep in the SEC coaching carousel would fully appreciate.
"Looking just like @CoachHughFreeze buddy. Great swing @CoachGolding," Kiffin wrote. The quip is a clear reference to former Auburn and Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze, whose frequent golf outings became a point of contention among fans during Auburn's on-field struggles last season.
The dig carries extra weight given the history between the two coaches. Golding served as Kiffin's defensive coordinator at Ole Miss before Kiffin's abrupt departure for LSU last fall. Golding was then promoted to lead the Rebels, setting the stage for a new, and clearly spicy, conference rivalry.
This social media sparring is more than just off-season fun—it's a reminder of the intense personalities and interconnected stories that make college football, especially in the SEC, a year-round drama. For fans, it adds another layer of intrigue to the upcoming LSU-Ole Miss matchup, where the battle won't just be on the field, but likely in the timeline as well.
