The Lane Kiffin saga at Ole Miss appears to be coming to an end.
On Saturday night, Kiffin met with Ole Miss athletic director Keith Carter and chancellor Glenn Boyce for the last time, and the meeting reportedly lasted for three hours, according to Yahoo Sports’ Ross Dellenger.

The meeting among Kiffin, Ole Miss athletic director Keith Carter and chancellor Glenn Boyce lasted more than three hours, if it started at the scheduled time of 3 p.m. CT. Vehicles believed to belong to Carter and Kiffin were seen leaving the site of the meeting, the Ole Miss chancellor’s home, at about 6:45 p.m. on Saturday.
Dellenger goes on to report that Kiffin spoke with LSU representatives, who are sending out a plane for the coach and family to come to Louisiana on Sunday.

As they have now for a week, LSU officials believe they hold Lane Kiffin’s commitment to be their next coach, though his desire to continue coaching Ole Miss in the postseason is a snag delaying the formalization of the move, sources tell.
LSU executives and Lane Kiffin’s reps held a call after the Tigers game at OU to continue solidifying the deal with travel plans: The university is sending two planes to Oxford on Sunday for Kiffin, his family & others, sources tell @YahooSports.
Apparetly Ole Miss has seen the writing on the wall and has begun looking for a new coach.
AD Keith Carter has already began engaging with candidates, notably Jon Sumrall & Alex Golesh, sources tell @YahooSports.
However, Florida pivoted from Kiffin to Sumrall, as reported Tuesday at Yahoo. Gators are believed to have a deal in principle. Final decision Sunday.

According to earlier reports, LSU is set to offer Kiffin a seven-year deal worth $90 million with $25 millio/year budget for the roster.
Seems like LSU’s deal is too good for Kiffin to pass up.
