It's almost absurdly unbelievable how quick Lane Kiffin changes sides.

There is no doubt he has already made himself at home in Baton Rouge, but taunting Ole Miss just days after leaving them stranded right before the Early Signing Period and the College Football Playoff is diabolical.

The newly minted LSU head coach is already back at his Twitter antics, and one of his first targets online, and in the recruiting world, was Ole Miss.

Kiffin's departure from Oxford also meant a few recruits retracting their commitment to Ole Miss. 4-star WR Corey Barber was one of them, who decommitted on Sunday after Kiffin left the Rebels.

Quite unsurprisingly, Barber has followed Kiffin to LSU, as the Rivals announced on Wednesday.

Lane Kiffin's reaction is outrageous

Kiffin jumped to grab the opportunity to rub it in Ole Miss's face.

"#justdifferent" he gloated, replying to the Rivals post.

Barber was one of three Ole Miss commits who tailed Kiffin to LSU, besides four-star TE JC Anderson and three-star OL Ryan Miret.

Both of them have also signed with the Tigers.

For the record, Kiffin signed 11 commits so far in the Early Signing Period, whereas Ole Miss has signed 17 commits so far despite suffering heavily during the Kiffin drama.

So, Kiffin can continue his poaching attempts, but he should know about Pete Golding's equally fervent attempts to retain his recruits and staff members.

And all that is with the Early Signing Period still in full swing. The Rebels will expect at least a couple of more signings, no matter how bad of a shape Kiffin ditched them in.
