Knox Kiffin makes high school quarterback debut for U-High in Louisiana

Knox Kiffin begins his tenure as the starting quarterback for LSU Laboratory School on Friday, Sept. 4. His debut occurs at the Cub Complex during a season-opening matchup against Archbishop Rummel. The junior quarterback, who previously played at Oxford High School in Mississippi, faces a challenging start against a high-profile opponent in Colton Nussmeier. The U-High program is coming off a 2025 season where it finished with a 10-3 record. Kiffin enters the game with scholarship offers from several schools, including Georgia Tech, Vanderbilt, Missouri, and California, despite his previous public comments regarding his desire to forge an independent career path from his father, Lane Kiffin, the current LSU head football coach.
