Knox Kiffin, a 2028 quarterback prospect and the son of new LSU head coach Lane Kiffin, is headed to one of the most well-known high school programs in Louisiana.

The signal-caller spent his sophomore season at Oxford High in Mississippi. On Monday, he told Rivals’ Hayes Fawcett that he’ll attend University Lab in Baton Rouge. Kiffin will enroll in January.

This fall for Oxford, Kiffin finished the season completing 59 of 98 passes for 1,058 yards and 11 touchdowns. The Chargers won 11 games and finished the year as the No. 3 team in Mississippi, per the Massey Ratings.

University Lab sits on LSU’s campus and has continued to churn out top talent at a high level. Five-Star Plus+ athlete Lamar Brown, the No. 1 overall prospect in the 2026 cycle, played for the Cubs.

Other notable alumni include NFL Draft picks in linebacker Christian Harris, LB Tim Williams and defensive lineman Jaquelin Roy. Kiffin will join that also features a pair or ranked prospects in four-star wide receiver Ethan Kimmie and three-star safety Emmanuel Moses.

This fall, the Cubs went 10-3, losing in the semifinals of the LHSAA D-II Select playoffs. They finished as the No. 25 team in the state, per the Rivals Composite Rankings.

Kiffin has now landed Power Four offers from SMU and Washington. He is currently unranked as a 2028 recruit, but also holds offers from Arkansas State, Western Kentucky, FIU and others. Kiffin began his high school career at Palos Verdes Peninsula (Calif.). He’ll look to make a splash as a junior in The Boot next fall.
