**Headline: Viral Ring Girl Finally Names Lane Kiffin as SEC Coach Who DM’d Her**
**NEW YORK, NY** – Sydney Thomas, the 21-year-old Alabama alum who gained internet fame as a ring girl at the Mike Tyson and Jake Paul fight, has officially identified Lane Kiffin, head coach of Ole Miss, as the SEC coach who slid into her DMs.
The revelation came during a recent episode of the Netflix reality show “Inside: USA.” Asked about the “craziest celebrity” to hit on her, Thomas stated, “I’d say Lane Kiffin… Another SEC football coach slid in with ‘Roll Tide’ and he’s the coach of Ole Miss.”
The admission puts to rest months of speculation sparked by Thomas’s initial podcast appearance in January, where she first hinted at receiving a message from an SEC coach but declined to name the sender. This led to rampant rumors, particularly targeting Kiffin, fueled by an alleged screenshot and even a tongue-in-cheek attempt by Kiffin himself to implicate retired Alabama coach Nick Saban.
While the “Roll Tide” message is a nod to Saban’s Alabama team, this news reveals Kiffin was making his advances towards the ring girl. Kiffin has yet to comment.
