Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin has been a top name whenever a discussion pops up about James Franklin's replacement at Penn State.
Lately, another legendary name in college football has been making rounds in the conversations: Nick Saban.
Ever since his retirement from head coaching role at Alabama, Saban has been all in into his new role as an ESPN College Gameday analyst. His wife, Mrs. Terry Saban doesn't want that to change.
She didn't want the rumors around her husband and the Penn State head coaching role to intensify either. So, she passed a verdict, quite a hilarious one, that squashed the rumors entirely.
NEW: Terry Saban on the possibility of Nick Saban taking the Penn State opening:

"I have no doubt if Nick wanted to go back to coaching, he could win his eighth national championship. But we’re having too much fun, and we wouldn’t want to take that opportunity away from all of our baby coaches. Like Kirby and Lane.”
Always the one to stay active on social media, Kiffin had an equally wholesome reaction to Mrs. Terry calling him their "baby coaches."
"Thanks Mrs. Terry," Kiffin wrote with a laughing emoji.
Thanks Mrs. Terry 😂 https://t.co/SAlR4cf5Y5

Meanwhile, Georgia head coach Kirby Smart seemed to be too busy worrying about Lane Kiffin's early morning hot yoga classes to reply to the playful comment.
“I do want to thank Lane, though, for the end of the game. He gave me some hot yoga tickets so I can go get some yoga. So, I tell him I appreciate that," was a core highlight of what Smart had to say about Kiffin's squad after Georgia held off Ole Miss in a 43-35 cinematic showdown.
Georgia was in an extremely concerning position against Ole Miss, but in classic Kirby Smart style, which is all about the art of making comebacks late in the game, the Bulldogs did not let the Rebels get another touchdown in the fourth quarter, making for a well-fought win.
