Ole Miss football coach Lane Kiffin is the hottest name in the college football coaching carousel, and both the LSU Tigers and Florida Gators are very interested, hosting Kiffin's family in Baton Rouge and Gainesville and selling the coach on their job.

So on this episode of LSU Insider, we do exactly that: Make the best sales pitch for both LSU (beat writers Wilson Alexander and Koki Riley) and Florida (Advocate prep sports writer Jackson Reyes, who went to UF) and why he might choose that school.

We also discuss LSU's backup plans if Kiffin goes to Florida or stays at Ole Miss, and a quick discussion of the quarterback situation for Saturday's game against Western Kentucky.

The LSU football team won a game on Saturday against Arkansas, but chatter continues to increase on the coaching search that will define this program's future. Our LSU Insiders reset the situation and divulge what they know on this episode, including some speculation on Lane Kiffin declining to commit long term to Ole Miss, what that could mean for LSU and just who the favorite is to be the Tigers' next head coach. We also answer the question: Who's a bigger long shot, Nick Saban or Frank Wilson? #lsu #lsutigers #lsufootball #collegefootball #lanekiffin #olemiss #hottytoddy #ncaafootball #football #footballcoach

The LSU football team has a game against Arkansas on Saturday, but let's face it, that's not what anyone wants to talk about. Brian Kelly sued LSU! Nick Saban is the new betting favorite to be the Tigers' next coach! Our LSU Insiders discuss all that and, yes, a little bit of the Arkansas game on this episode.

The LSU football program has more chaos in its coaching search. This time, it's ex-coach Brian Kelly fighting for as much of his $54 million buyout as possible while LSU tries to minimize its payment to him. Our LSU Insiders comment on the situation and what it means for the Tigers' coaching search. On the field, LSU replaced starting quarterback Garrett Nussmeier with Michael Van Buren in the second half against Alabama on Saturday. Will that be the case going forward? More on that and on Nussmeier's ultimate legacy at LSU. #lsu #lsufootball #lsutigers #geauxtigers #secfootball #ncaafootball #collegefootball #football #nfldraft

The LSU football team heads to Alabama this week, but the oxygen in Baton Rouge is all being taken up by the team's search for a new coach. Our LSU Sports Insiders are here with more thoughts, including lead beat writer Wilson Alexander, who spoke to 15 people involved with the football program to find out how it all went wrong with Brian Kelly. We also offer updated thoughts on the search after interim athletic director Verge Ausberry and members of LSU's Board of Supervisors held a press conference Friday, look at the latest odds for LSU's next coach and talk about how the timeline will get very complicated for any candidates taking their current team to the College Football Playoff. #lsu #lsutigers #lsufootball #geauxtigers #football #secfootball #collegefootball #ncaafootball #coachingcarousel

The LSU football team is seeking a new coach after firing Brian Kelly on Sunday, and it's already getting dramatic. Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry inserted himself in the headlines Wednesday, saying that athletic director Scott Woodward would have no part in the new search. What exactly does that mean? And why has it made LSU's search more complicated? Is interim coach Frank Wilson a real candidate? And what are our reporters hearing? The LSU Sports Insiders are here to answer those questions and more.
