Reports: Alabama offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin to become FAU coach

Alabama OC Lane Kiffin to be next head coach of Florida Atlantic

Alabama offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin has agreed to become Florida Atlantic's coach, sources told ESPN.

Kiffin had been engaging in back-and-forth talks with the Conference USA school since last Friday, sources said. At one point, negotiations between the two sides had stalled, but a deal was struck early Monday morning, sources said.

Sources told ESPN.com that Kiffin plans to remain as Alabama's offensive coordinator throughout the College Football Playoff, similar to what former Tide defensive coordinator Kirby Smart did last season after taking the Georgia head-coaching job.
