"With the playoff committee releasing updated rankings tonight, I wanted it to be known that after conversations with LSU, we are allowing Charlie to return to Ole Miss to coach the team during the playoffs, Kiffin said in a statement. I've already made the committee aware of this and I'm hopeful this decision will allow Ole Miss to receive the highest ranking possible because these great players are very deserving of that. I'm excited that Charlie will be back to help coach the greatest team in the history of Ole Miss."
"Weis, who has been the Rebels' offensive coordinator under Kiffin since 2022, was among several assistants to immediately join Kiffin at LSU. But he will return to Ole Miss and work alongside new Rebels coach Pete Golding and the staff there for the CFP. Ole Miss finished the regular season at 11-1 and was No. 7 in last week's CFP standings. The new CFP rankings will be revealed Tuesday night on ESPN."
Charlie Weis Jr., who joined Lane Kiffin at LSU earlier this week, will return to Ole Miss and serve as the Rebels' offensive coordinator through the College Football Playoff. Weis has been Ole Miss' offensive coordinator under Kiffin since 2022 and will work alongside new head coach Pete Golding, quarterbacks coach Joe Judge and six other assistants for the CFP staff. Ole Miss finished the regular season 11-1 and was No. 7 in last week's CFP standings; updated rankings will be released Tuesday night on ESPN. Weis has agreed to a three-year deal with LSU worth about $6 million.
