In an unusual move, four assistant coaches who recently left Ole Miss for rival LSU have temporarily returned to help their old team.
The coaches are assisting Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin in preparing for the Rebels' upcoming College Football Playoff game against Tulane. They worked for Kiffin at Ole Miss before accepting jobs at LSU earlier this month.
This temporary arrangement is allowed under NCAA rules. Coaches can consult for their former schools if they are between jobs.
The four assistants will return to LSU after Ole Miss's playoff game concludes. Their unique situation highlights the complex and competitive world of major college football staffing.
