Going into the CIF California Division 2-A State Bowl Championship, the safe bet was on Twelve Bridges. Undefeated season? Yeah, that kind of record builds its hype. But when crunch time hit, a 16-year-old kid coolly handed off the ball for a smooth 5-yard touchdown, sealing the deal for Palos Verdes. The final score? A jaw-dropping 55-19. Just like that, Twelve Bridges’ perfect run got buried under the confetti. But amid all the fireworks and end zone dances, one moment stood out—the quiet handoff, the respectful nod, and a kid passing the torch to Christian Ries like it was scripted in Hollywood. Call it nepotism, or whatever you want—but you have to agree that Knox Kiffin knows how to play b-ll.

Cause if he didn’t, would he be getting his 6th offer at just sweet-16? The young lad took to his IG story to share his 6th college offer from Murray State. As of now, Lane Kiffin‘s son, aka the potential future QB of Ole Miss, has already landed major offers from Georgia State and SMU. H-ll, Mustangs’ QB coach, D’Eriq King, went the extra mile for Knox with a mouth-watering scholarship offer. Imagine being so young and schools are already lined up waiting to pick you.

See, we weren’t wrong when we pointed out how stacked the 2027 and 2028 QB classes are. Just a few hours ago, we covered Ryan Day‘s son, RJ Day’s 13th offer from Syracuse—he’s a 2027 kid, so that’s exciting. But then there’s Knox… still so young.

And this “age” question has led to the nepotism chatter getting loud—“He’s Lane Kiffin’s kid, of course, he gets the spotlight.” But let’s be real: just because his dad held Georgia to 10 points doesn’t mean Knox is getting a free ride. At Oxford, Lane isn’t just handing down plays—he’s personally molding Knox, piece by piece, into the kind of QB who earns every headline.

The HC has his son signed up for classes with 3DQB SoCal. Ever heard of biomechanics? Yeah, 3DQB focuses on that and has been regarded as one of the topmost development groups that focuses on that subject. This is perfect for Knox, as it preps him up with the perfect mechanics and poise.

And maybe the starting job at Oxford?

What’s your perspective on:

Is Knox Kiffin's success all talent, or is his dad pulling strings behind the scenes?

Have an interesting take?

Social media trolling or Lane Kiffin’s masterstroke?

Just 2 months prior, something odd happened on X. Now, every Ole Miss fan knows that Lane loves some good ol’ internet trolling. He has been doing that for a long time… So, this time around, while sharing one of Knox’s practice clips, Lane quietly tags @OleMissFB on the post.

Now, hey, we get it. Which father wouldn’t want his son to play on the team he’s coaching? So all of this could just be a proverbial nod to that. However, something also makes us think that Lane might be pulling some strings to get Knox a ticket to the Rebels.

In all honesty, we are sure Rebels fans won’t mind this addition to the camp, as long as Knox doesn’t throw game-ending interceptions… But that aside, as of now, the young lad is rocking 6 offers from some good schools, and only time will tell which club gets blessed with his skillset.
