Knox Kiffin Trash Talks SEC Quarterbacks at Manning Passing Academy

The youngest Kiffin could be taking after his father as far as humor is concerned

Lane Kiffin is a savant of trash talk and social media trolling, something that his son Knox is reportedly becoming good at himself.

On Friday, LSU Tigers quarterback Jayden Daniels was asked to discuss his experience at the Manning Passing Academy, including who dished out the best trash talk at the event. The SEC West athlete quickly honed in on Lane Kiffin's son Knox.

"Lane Kiffin’s son," Daniels said via WGNO TV. "Yeah, he was talking about Ole Miss is going to beat us this year."

Daniels and the Tigers got the best of Kiffin's Rebels in Baton Rouge in the 2022 season. After opening up a lead in the first half, Ole Miss saw its advantage deteriorate to a 45-20 loss at the hands of the Bayou Bengals. The elder Kiffin has not been shy about trolling anyone given the opportunity, including LSU head coach Brian Kelly. 

It is Knox, however, who has recently taken after his dad in that realm, recently claiming that current USC Trojans head coach Lincoln Riley is his favorite USC coach ever. Kiffin himself coached at USC from 2001-06 and again from 2010-13.

Daniels will have a chance to prove Knox Kiffin wrong this season when his team comes to visit Ole Miss in Oxford in the annual Magnolia Bowl. That game is scheduled for Sept. 30.
