Key notes from Marty Smith interview

  • I have been commissioned to Starkville on Saturday to be on Lane Kiffin watch. He is “scheduled” to make his decision this weekend. It has been one hell of a soap opera.
     
  • Kiffin has built an incredible program. Ole Miss wins a lot of games. They are a phenomenal team. The best Ole Miss in the history of Ole Miss football. To me, the only reason to leave is if he believes he can win elsewhere and not at Ole Miss.
