BIG CONGRATULATIONS: Ole Miss Rebel Head Coach Lane Kiffin Named Paul Bear Bryant Coach of the Year!
In a monumental achievement, Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin has been named the recipient of the prestigious Paul Bear Bryant Coach of the Year Award. Kiffin edged out eight other esteemed coaches, solidifying his place as one of the most impactful leaders in college football today.
Kiffin’s recognition comes after a season that saw the Rebels exceed expectations, finishing with a remarkable record and demonstrating consistent excellence on both sides of the ball. Under Kiffin’s leadership, the Rebels showcased a high-octane offense led by quarterback Jaxson Dart and a gritty defense anchored by star linebacker Ashanti Cistrunk.
During the award ceremony, Kiffin expressed his gratitude, saying, “This honor isn’t just about me—it’s about the players, coaching staff, and the entire Ole Miss family who work tirelessly to make this program great. I’m humbled and proud to bring this award home to Oxford.”
The competition for the award was fierce, with finalists including Georgia’s Kirby Smart and Michigan’s Jim Harbaugh. However, Kiffin’s ability to elevate Ole Miss into national contention and inspire his players proved to be the decisive factor.
With this accolade, Kiffin further cements his legacy while raising expectations for an even brighter future in Rebel Nation.
