Rollins is suing Kiffin and the institution for for failure to provide equal protection, racial and sexual discrimination, and multiple other allegations, the lawsuit says.
An Ole Miss spokesman told ESPN that the university had yet to receive the lawsuit as of Thursday night. The lawsuit goes on to state that no one within the Ole Miss football program provided him resources about mental health or a mental health referral following his injury. In February of 2023, Kiffin told Rollins he was being moved to the offensive line since he declined to transfer out of the program. When asked if this was a “choice or command”, Kiffin told Rollins “if he didn’t like it then he should quit.”Rollins’ mother, Connie Hollins, said she called the team’s athletic trainer and told him her son was experiencing a “mental health crisis” and ask that he be referred to counselor.
“I guarantee if we f---ing called you in and said you’re playing defense, would you have mental issues?,” Kiffin asked.Kiffin and Rollins continued their exchange before the Ole Miss head coach told the player he was no longer a part of the program. As a result of the “actions and inactions” of Kiffin and the school, the lawsuit claims Rollins “has suffered physical pain and emotional distress and anguish.”
