Because, of course.
Hot on the heels of his comatose video meant to drum up ticket sales for his Florida Atlantic football program that instead came off looking like the head coach was a kidnap victim forced to read off a script, Lane Kiffin is still looking to stir up interest in his Owls. Friday, a gift gave him the opportunity to again put the Conference USA school in the offseason news cycle.
Apparently, Kanye West hooked Kiffin up with a pair of the rapper’s “Yeezy” sneakers. To thank West for the kicks, Kiffin took to Twitter and addressed a tweet to West’s wife, Kim Kardashian, that offered up both thanks for the shoes and an invitation to a future Owls football game.@KimKardashian tell your Hubby thx, come 2 a game #yeezy pic.twitter.com/eEcf4d4WwA

And, on a completely unrelated note, the 2017 college football season kicks off exactly 84 days from today.
