Lane Kiffin confirms he’s a Taylor Swift fan after literal hours of speculation 

We at For The Win don’t shy away from a critical investigation and one could argue there’s nothing more critical right now than finding out how everyone feels about Taylor Swift’s Red (Taylor’s Version) — a newly released re-recording of Swift’s 2012 lyrical masterpiece chronicling her three-month relationship with Jake Gyllenhaal. 

Now, if you’re not a Swiftie, here’s all you need to know:

1) “All Too Well” was arguably the best song on the original version of the album and recently landed at No. 69 on Rolling Stone‘s 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list.

2) The new version of Red features both a re-recording of the song AND a special 10-minute version Swift fans have been buzzing about for months.

3) The 10-minute version is DEVASTATING.

4) I, a reporter of fundamental truths who spent last night listening to this song on repeat in a definitely-not-sad-girl way, had to know where Lane Kiffin stood on the matter.

OK, this isn’t the first time Kiffin has tweeted about a pop star — perpetually looking at you, Katy Perry — so it’s always possible he was just playing along for the sake of a fun tweet.

THAT’S WHY I, A RELENTLESS PURSUER OF FACTS, followed up with Kiffin to find out if he’s an authentic fan. He confirmed he is, in fact, a Swiftie.

Your move, Pulitzer committee.
