Longhorns Daily News: Ole Miss’ Lane Kiffin: ‘The future is very bright for Texas football’

Ole Miss Rebels head coach Lane Kiffin had a few uncharacteristically kind things to say about his former colleague and long-time friend Steve Sarkisian’s tenure ahead with the Texas Longhorns.

“Texas, Oklahoma coming in is amazing,” Kiffin said, according to Inside Texas. “I already looked at our schedule, the one they put out to 2024, and I joked to Steve Sarkisian yesterday, and I said, well, I don’t know any coach that would want to go to the NFL. We are in it now. Our schedule is like playing in the NFL in the SEC now, especially adding those two.”

Kiffin later added, “I think he’s doing awesome there, and the way he’s flipped the roster and recruiting at such a high level and signing Arch, I think the future is extremely bright for Texas Football.”
