In 2017, Florida Atlantic built an actual train with a super-sized Lane Kiffin head on the front and rolled it around campus.[3] SB Nation called "the Lane Train" common verbiage for "the entire Lane Kiffin experience."[4] The train has since stopped in Oxford and pulled into Baton Rouge. All aboard, or hop off. Your call, and your fan base's.

Where the nickname comes from

It's real, it's documented, and it started in Boca Raton.

🚂
A literal train (2017)

FAU's marketing team ran a "Lane Train" with Kiffin's giant head in front and life-size cutouts in back; it rolled around campus for four hours before the Marshall game. Kiffin was fine with it: "If it gets students excited... I'm all for it."[3]

👕
On the shirts

At the 2017 Boca Bowl, FAU students showed off "Lane Train" shirts; FAU beat Akron 50–3.[7] FAU's own bio mentions the "Lane Train" moving through campus.[8]

🙃
And the other side

When FAU trailed Oklahoma 42–0 at half in 2018, fans online were "hopping off the Lane Train."[9] The nickname works for cheering and for jeering. That's its value.

One nickname, two fan bases

🟣 All aboard (LSU)

  • The No. 1 transfer class and 42 transfers in Year 1.[12][13]
  • Blowout wins over Clemson and a ranked Texas A&M.[6]
  • A "Lane Train" hub for every Saturday the offense rolls.

🔴 Hopping off (Ole Miss)

  • He left Oxford on Nov. 30, 2025, before Ole Miss's postseason.[14]
  • His first trip back ended Ole Miss 32, LSU 24.[15]
  • A "missed the train" parody hub writes itself.

Our opinion: few coaching nicknames come with a built-in punchline in both directions. Whoever owns this domain gets to decide which way the train is running.
