Lane Kiffin just had his first setback at LSU. On Thursday the Tigers lost a four-star recruit who had been committed to the school since March as Dylan Purter, a safety out of Alabama, has flipped to Florida. Purter will join one of his high school teammates and play for new Gators coach Jon Sumrall.

After the Lane Kiffin rejection, the Jon Sumrall era begins in Gainesville not with trumpets, but with therapy.

The gators pivoted to Sumrall after their top choice, Lane Kiffin left the University of Mississippi to take a job at LSU.

Lane Kiffin's Ole Miss offenses were prolific. At his intro presser, Kiffin explained the history behind the elite units.

UF and FSU will square off during one of the least-anticipated meetings of two in-state rivals that began their annual clash in 1958.

Joe Cox: Co-offensive Coordinator, Tight Ends Coach - Cox joined Kiffin's staff in Oxford in 2024 where he took on the role as the team’s tight ends coach and co-offensive coordinator. The 39-year-old previously worked as the tight ends coach at Alabama in 2022.

UF coach Jon Sumrall will hire Georgia Tech’s Buster Faulkner as offensive coordinator to return explosiveness to the Gators’ attack.

Lamar Brown, the top-overall player in the 2026 ESPN 300, will not sign with the Tigers during this week’s early signing period as he waits for newly hired coach Lane Kiffin to assemble his staff, according to ESPN on Tuesday night.
