Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin is known for his antics on social media. Last season, he was particularly vocal about his Rebels not being selected for the College Football Playoff over some teams from other conferences. However, in an episode of the Netflix series “Inside: USA” this week, WWE ring girl Sydney Thomas was asked about the craziest celebrity who has hit on her. She revealed that Lane Kiffin, who is worth $14 million, per Celebrity Net Worth, had slid into her DMs.
“I’d say Lane Kiffin. Another SEC football coach. He slid in with Roll Tide and he’s the coach of Ole Miss. So I guess that works,” she said.

Sydney Thomas spoke earlier this year about an SEC football coach DMing her on the “Like a Farmer podcast. She did not reveal who it was at the time, but now it is clear that it was Lane Kiffin.
“It was from another SEC football team coach. And they just DM’d me, ‘Roll Tide,'” Sydney Thomas said. “So I’m not going to say what coach it was, but they’re an Alabama fan, now at least. We’ll let everyone else figure that out for themselves, who it was.”
Before Getting Hit On By Lane Kiffin, Sydney Thomas Became An Internet Sensation At The Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson Fight
She might not be as well-known in the college football world, but Sydney Thomas became an internet sensation because she was a ring girl during Jake Paul’s fight with Mike Tyson in November. She saw an explosion of social media followers and started to receive many endorsement deals.
The only downside to her newfound fame was the increase in attention she got online. Notably, she started to receive more DMs from random people, and sometimes those people were celebrities. According to her, Lane Kiffin is the most famous person to slide into her DMs.
While Kiffin previously messaged Sydney Thomas on social media, he is much busier these days. His No. 13-ranked Ole Miss Rebels are preparing for a game against the No. 4-ranked LSU Tigers on Saturday.
