Lane Kiffin on the sidelines
Lane Kiffin is facing the heat from LSU legends.
On Saturday, Kiffin invited several celebrities, including Shaquille O’Neal, Angel Reese, and Paul Skenes, to walk out with him before the team’s game against Alabama.

Unfortunately, Kiffin and LSU were embarrassed by Alabama and blown out in front of their celebrity guests.
After the game, LSU legend Leonard Fournette told Kiffin to stop letting celebrities hang out on the sideline.
“The superstars coming out. F— all that. They had Shaq come out, they had Angel Reese come out. Angel Reese, Shaq, and Kevin (Costner) they not about to come help us on this f–king football field. What the f–k are we doing? They not about to sit up and help us win on no goddamn game. why are they coming out on the bus with us? Why? It does not make no sense to me. Yes, I love everything Coach Kiffin is doing, but that sh–, especially we losing, that shit has to stop. This ain’t no f–cking concert. This ain’t no party. The game is to win. We get paid to win.”
To win. Success come off winning. II could care less who you come out with, especially guys like us who put our hard work, sweat, tears into that shit. And that’s— and you know what? And NIL has messed the game up so much. They don’t realize they’re not just representing themselves and their family, they’re representing us.”
