Lane Kiffin has spent the last five seasons turning Ole Miss into one of the SEC’s most explosive programs, stacking a 10–1 record this fall and keeping the Rebels in the playoff conversation. But off the field, the head coach is also dad to Landry Kiffin, who just stole the spotlight with a photo dump that left fans in a chokehold.
On Monday, November 17, the 20-year-old business student hit Instagram with an icy-blue, body-hugging formal look from Kappa Kappa Gamma’s Sapphire Ball. “Best time of the year,” she captioned the post. In the carousel, Landry mixed in photos with friends, glam moments, and black-and-white photobooth strips from the event.
Fans didn’t hold back. “Obsesseddd,” one person wrote. “You look so good,” another added. Someone else crowned her “beauty queen,” while the rest of the section became an avalanche of fire emojis and heart-eyes.
When she’s not making waves on social media, Landry is often in the news for her relationship with LSU linebacker Whit Weeks. The pair went public in late September when she shared an Instagram carousel captioned “Happy:)” that included a photo of her sitting on his lap. Weeks commented “Nice dude,” and Landry replied “Thanks bud,” marking their first clear acknowledgment as a couple.
The timing of the reveal drew attention. It landed just days before Ole Miss and LSU met in a highly anticipated top-15 matchup (which the Rebels won 24-19), and outlets noted the unusual connection between the Ole Miss head coach’s daughter and a starter from a rival SEC program.
Who doesn’t think it’s unusual, though? Landry’s dad. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Lane wrote, “Take the over,” a three-word response that quickly made the rounds as fans tried to decode whether he was joking, trolling, or simply letting everyone know he wasn’t bothered. He later said in an interview that Weeks is “an awesome kid” and that the relationship has “nothing to do with the game itself.”
