In this thread we can put Ole Miss football staff hires and fires.  Lets try to stick to valid information, but rumors are good and should be confirmed.  If you have information from other boards, post it here.

It will be interesting to see who Kiffin hires for his staff.  There is no doubt that he has good connections in the football world.  We can only hope that Ole Miss does not run interference and force coaches on his staff or tell him that he must keep certain coaches.
