While the bio has changed, the location on his profile was still set to Oxford, Mississippi, as of Tuesday at 10 a.m. ET.
It was a notable move since Kiffin has more of a presence on social media than many head coaches in major college football.
He even announced his decision on the platform and explained he wanted to finish the season with Ole Miss but was denied his request by program officials. That was one of many posts he has made since becoming LSU's new head coach:
The social-media element with Kiffin was just one of the many storylines that have defined what turned into a saga that played out as the Rebels were putting the finishing touches on an 11-1 regular season and likely spot in the College Football Playoff.
John Talty of CBS Sports reported the situation between Kiffin and Ole Miss grew "tense" because he wanted to remain and coach through the CFP.
"The Ole Miss coach wasn't going to leave for Baton Rouge without a fight, though," Talty reported. "In a conversation described as tense, Kiffin didn't want to back down from his desire to coach the team through the postseason. When Ole Miss showed no interest in allowing him to do so, Kiffin, according to sources, threatened to take the offensive staff with him immediately if Carter and Boyce didn't relent. They held firm; Kiffin would not be coaching the team in the playoff.
"As word of Kiffin's tactics spread, multiple Ole Miss football players confronted him in his office Sunday about it. Kiffin refused to directly answer whether he had told his on-field offensive staffers that if they didn't get on the plane with him to Baton Rouge the next day, they wouldn't have a spot on his LSU staff."
Ole Miss fans weren't happy either, and video of them booing and flipping off the departing coach boarding a plane made the rounds on social media.
The end result is Kiffin is at LSU on a significant contract.
Wilson Alexander of The Advocate reported he will make $13 million per year with incentive opportunities, which places him ahead of every coach in the country except for Georgia's Kirby Smart, per USA Today's coaching database.
With that contract will come sky-high expectations as soon as his first season. And that first season includes a road trip to Ole Miss that will surely draw plenty of headlines and place him firmly under the spotlight.
It would be anything but surprising if Kiffin added to the headlines with some social-media posts leading up to the game.
