Eli Manning Isn’t Dwelling on Lane Kiffin’s Ole Miss Exit
Manning admitted he’s thankful for Kiffin’s time in Oxford.
Ole Miss quarterback Eli Manning, a two-time Super Bowl champion, credits the Ole Miss fan base for their passionate support during last Saturday's 32-24 victory over LSU. The quarterback acknowledged the emotional roller coaster of the game, expressing gratitude for the Ole Miss family's presence in the stadium. Manning refrained from dwelling on former Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin's controversial exit last season.
Instead, he emphasized that fan passion was understandable given their deep connection to football. Manning noted that Kiffin's decision to leave for LSU presented an opportunity for Ole Miss to contend for a national championship, which they ultimately lost to Miami. Despite the disappointment, Manning remains focused on the present, praising Kiffin for the team's success and growth under his leadership.
