Lane Kiffin has made headlines after confirming his decision to take the head coaching job at LSU Tigers. But before Father, Daughter had already made his appearance on the front page for skipping one of the biggest weekends in Ole Miss football.
While her father coached his final Egg Bowl and prepared to sign for the Tigers, Landry Kiffin was 200 miles away, living her best life in Nashville.
Landry Parties Through Dad Lane ‘s Final Ole Miss Game
The 20-year-old Ole Miss student spent last weekend celebrating a friend’s birthday in Nashville instead of watching her father’s last stand. Her social media told the story of sushi dinners, dance videos but zero mentions of the Egg Bowl.
Some fans could debate her choice, but it seems she prioritized the celebration while knowing her father’s focus would be on coaching the next team, Tigers.

Lane was grinding through his final game in Oxford while fielding calls about the LSU job. Her younger brother Knox was battling in a high school playoff game. But Landry stayed put in Nashville for a second straight day of birthday celebrations.
Lane dropped his LSU announcement on X Sunday, making it official. He’s heading to Baton Rouge on a massive contract that’ll make him one of the highest-paid coaches in the SEC.

Shortly after the surprise announcement, Rebels fans noticed her absence. Many pointed out how Landry’s party weekend clashed with the emotional weight of her dad’s departure.
But the fact is, she has been dating LSU linebacker Whit Weeks and attended several Tigers games instead of supporting Ole Miss. So missing Ole Miss programs for personal moments is nothing new for her.
Dating an LSU Tiger Changes Everything
She’s been linked to LSU linebacker Whit Weeks all season, and she’s already been repping purple and gold at Tiger Stadium.
She hard-launched their relationship the same week LSU played Ole Miss. Since then, she’s sported custom LSU fits to games, including a white tiger getup that went viral during Alabama week. She even showed up at an LSU booster meeting earlier in the week, which sent Rebels message boards into meltdown mode.

The irony hits different when you remember 2022. Landry famously talked Lane out of leaving Ole Miss after that season. Her emotional plea kept him in Oxford. This time? Her actions suggested she was more than ready for the move to Baton Rouge.
Lane starts his LSU tenure with championship expectations and a recruiting class to rebuild. Landry’s already got Tiger ties through Weeks, so she’ll fit right in at Death Valley. In this coaching soap opera, Kiffin’s family drama has given college football fans plenty to talk about heading into the offseason.
