LSU head coach Lane Kiffin has happily painted himself as the villain of college football in the months since the team hired him. But as he entered Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge for his first game at the helm against Clemson, he enjoyed a star-studded escort.
Video of Kiffin’s entrance at Tiger Stadium showed a number of celebrity guests walking alongside him: influencer and LSU alum Livvy Dunne, comedian and Louisiana native Theo Vonn and model and LSU alum Brooks Nader.
Eagle-eyed viewers also saw that Kiffin briefly met with five-star tight end Ahmad Hudson, one of the top prospects of the 2027 recruiting class.
“We did not, in fact, need this.”
Despite ESPN’s best efforts to hype up Kiffin’s star-studded entrance to his debut for the team, fans were not impressed int he slightest:
“ESPN finally built a lineup specifically for men who haven’t updated their personality since college,” one user on X remarked.
“We did not, in fact, need this. and we knew it. (we’ll take Livvy though, she’s alright),” wrote another.
“Its all about him. Biggest scumbag in CFB. This is so skeezy,” a third wrote.
“Skenes just letting his girl hang out with Kiffin? Brave… Or stupid.”
“Hahaha dude is so lame. 51, divorced, and ‘a changed man’ doing this.”
“Lane Kiffin gonna have the Housewives of LA(Louisiana) accompany him next time.”
“I’d be so pissed if my school turned into a clown show like this or Colorado.”

Kiffin has been playing the role of college football’s villain ever since he left Ole Miss prior to their College Football Playoff run to take the LSU job. He turned himself into an even bigger villain over the past few weeks through his recruitment of multiple players who spent the last several months on NFL training camp rosters.
Will Dunne, Von and Nader see him win his first game at the helm? Or does Clemson have what it takes to humble him?
