Ole Miss Rebels head coach Lane Kiffin had quite the suggestion for the Tennessee Vols on Friday. 

Earlier this week, the NCAA approved the used of on-field sponsorship logos (which is unfortunate…I think we can all agree on that). 

From ESPN: Starting this season, the NCAA will allow commercial sponsor advertisements on football fields for regular-season games in all three divisions, the organization announced Thursday.

The NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel approved the recommendation from the Football Rules Committee. The rule allows for corporate advertisements to be placed in three spots on the field: A single advertisement centered on the 50-yard line, along with no more than two smaller flanking advertisements elsewhere on the field. It can be done on a game-by-game basis or for the entire season.

Kiffin, who was the head coach at Tennessee in 2009, offered a suggestion on which logo should be used at Neyland Stadium. 

French's Mustard. 

That's a reference, of course, to the French's Mustard bottle that made its way to the field when Tennessee played Ole Miss in 2021 and trash was thrown onto the field by fans in protest of a couple of calls that were made by officials.

Hopefully we don't see any logos on the field at Neyland Stadium. But if the leadership at Tennessee decides to enter into a partnership with a company, hopefully it's with French's Mustard.
