As Florida’s head coaching search drags on, one big name remains a clear favorite for the job. Ole Miss’ Lane Kiffin remains the most likely candidate as a 53 percent favorite to be the next head coach in Gainesville, according to Kalshi, a New York-based financial exchange and prediction market. Kiffin, who has led the No. 8 Rebels to a 10-1 start, has been flirting with leaving Oxford with several high-profile openings like Florida and LSU available. No. 22 Missouri’s Eliah Drinkwitz and Washington’s Jedd Fisch follow Kiffin with a 20 percent chance to land the job. Georgia Tech’s Brent Key, who has a six percent chance at being the next Gators head coach, per Kalshi, and no other candidates have odds better than five percent. As of Thursday afternoon, the market, which opened Oct. 21, has drawn nearly $950,000 in bets at Kalshi. Florida parted ways with head coach Billy Napier, who went 22-23 in four seasons, in October after the Gators struggled during a 3-4 start. After losing to Kiffin’s Ole Miss on Saturday, the Gators fell to 3-7, securing their fourth losing season in five years. Kiffin is also seen as a favorite for the LSU opening.

He’s far from a guarantee to leave Ole Miss, though. As of this writing, Kalshi is giving him just a 17 percent chance of leaving the school he’s called home for the past six seasons. Ole Miss reportedly is willing to match any offer Kiffin receives. Why Trust New York Post Betting Dylan Svoboda is a versatile writer and analyst across many sports.
