Lane Kiffin’s son Knox’s budding career

Knox is preparing to become a quarterback prospect for 2028 and has announced on social media that he has received scholarship offers from two FBS programs. The young athlete’s impressive throws have captured the attention of many. At a recent camp in Dallas, he completed a perfect 50-yard pass that quickly went viral. This outstanding performance caught the eye of SMU Mustangs’ quarterback coach, D’Eriq King, who promptly offered Knox a scholarship. Arkansas State also acknowledged his potential and extended an offer.

Knox is still in high school but the talented QB has stunned many college football programs with his skills. He has visited many teams to explore options. The class of 2028 prospect may already have offers, but he is expected to have many more when he is prepared to sign a contract.

Knox, who plays for Palos Verdes High School in California, has already announced that he doesn’t favor playing for his father’s team in the future. The teen star would prefer facing his father’s team on the gridiron and making him proud by beating his boys. There is, of course, a lot of time till that happens. So, the young Kiffin might wait for a preferred Power 5 program to make a move.

Lane Kiffin, head coach of the Ole Miss Rebels, has not yet extended an offer to Knox, but he has been very supportive. He has been seen accompanying Knox to several of his showcase events and even arranged for Knox to spend time with the team’s star quarterback, Jaxson Dart. Together, they even shared a photo on X, showing Lane Kiffin with Knox, Dart, and a few other players enjoying a fun “family” dinner outing.

Watching Knox mingling with the Ole Miss football family, fans are already envisioning the head coach’s son as a potential successor to Dart as Ole Miss’ leading quarterback in the near future. Let’s see if this fan dream becomes a reality in a couple of years.
