Lane Kiffin and his girlfriend did not break up. TMSPN’s “sources” were wrong!
The sports gossip site (for which I was not previously familiar) posted an anonymous article on Jan. 29 that indicated a split between Ole Miss’ head football coach and his girlfriend. Other lesser-known outlets ran with the news off of what TMSPN had to say.
However, the “news” was not real. Lane Kiffin and Sally Rychlak are very much still together.
How do we know? They are currently fishing in what looks like Florida.
The former posted a photo with the latter and made reference to the viral TikTok couple ‘Pookie’ and Jett Puckett. He and his girlfriend were holding giant groupers.
It does not get any more confirmed than that. The 48-year-old and his girlfriend are still dating despite whatever TMSPN’s sources thought that they knew. They swung for the fences and whiffed.
Kiffin, a big outdoorsman, takes every opportunity to hit the water during the offseason. Whenever he’s not game planning, hitting the recruiting trail, or practicing, he’s probably out on the ocean.
In fact, Kiffin was completely unbothered when Quinshon Judkins announced his decision to transfer because he was landing big fish in the Bahamas. (And because the Rebels’ backfield is still loaded, less toxic and much less expensive without him.)
This time of year presents college football coaches with the opportunity to step away from the grind for a little while. Signing Day is behind them. Spring ball is still a few months away.
Kiffin’s vacations typically revolve around some deep-sea fishing. He appears to be somewhere in Destin or Clearwater on his current trip. Regardless of the location, it has been a great success.
Friday’s catch started with a pair of African Pompano.
It concluded with a massive red snapper.
Saturday got off to a hot start with the mammoth grouper that he and “Pookie” got in the boat together!
