  • After Lane Kiffin left Ole Miss for LSU on Sunday, the program moved fast to replace him, with Vice Chancellor Keith Carter facing pressure to keep staff and roster intact.
  • Averaging 18.5 points allowed per game, Pete Golding's Ole Miss defense produced a nationally dominant 2024 pass rush and developed eight Rebel defenders drafted into the NFL.
  • Installed immediately, Pete Golding has been charged with preserving Ole Miss's national-title hopes as players applauded and Keith Carter said the staff will 'go on this run' in the College Football Playoff.
  • By making Golding the permanent hire, Ole Miss opted for continuity over a short-term interim, bucking recent Power Four hesitancy and positioning him to lead the Rebels into the College Football Playoff.
