Who Are Lane Kiffin's 3 Kids? Meet Landry, Presley And Knox Who Keep Steering His Coaching Choices

Lane Kiffin's future has become the most suspenseful storyline in college football. While Louisiana State University (LSU) prepares a massive offer reportedly worth nearly USD 90 million over seven years, the Ole Miss head coach is weighing one of the most consequential decisions of his career. But according to insiders, the delicate matter is not just about money, the extent of program control, or legacy. Sources have told Athletic and On3 Sports that Lane is torn between his professional ambitions and personal ties, where, unexpectedly, his children are playing a significant role in influencing his decisions.

Who are Lane Kiffin's kids?

Lane Kiffin shares three children, daughters, Landry (20) and Presley (19), and a son, Monte Knox (16), with his ex-wife, Layla. According to E60: The Many Lives of Lane Kiffin, years of coaching relocations that kept him away from day-to-day parenting, but love to Oxford gave Lane a second chance at in-person parenting in 2020. His daughter, Landry, relocated from Los Angeles for her senior year of high school to reconnect with her father. Moreover, by 2025, ESPN reported that Layla and their youngest child, Knox, also moved back to Oxford, marking a point in Lane's personal life.

Meanwhile, his middle daughter, Presley, committed to USC volleyball in 2024 and now plays as an outside hitter. Whereas Lane's youngest child and only son, Knox, is a rising quarterback prospect in the 2028 class. Needless to say, he already has multiple offers from SMU, FIU, and Sacramento State. Despite the demands of coaching, Lane has emphasised that family now dictates his decisions.

Knox confirmed his shift and told in E60 that his father had been a whole different person since they settled at Ole Miss. Now, with his children making their career at Oxford or nearby Universities, Lane's decision to stay or leave carries more emotional significance than ever in the football field.

Who is Landry Kiffin and her boyfriend, Whit Weeks?

Among others, Lane's eldest daughter, Landry, is at the center of the drama. Despite being a student at Ole Miss herself, her relationship with LSU linebacker Whit Weeks has unexpectedly entered the coaching conversation. Landry made their relationship Instagram-official in September 2025, just days before Ole Miss faced LSU. Analysts and netizens specifically pointed out the timing of the announcement. Since then, she has been spotted at LSU booster events wearing Whit's team's colours and supporting him in the game.

On the other hand, Whit Weeks, 20, is also a rising star on LSU's defense. He plays alongside his brothers, West and Witt. Whit has gained attention for his speed and coverage ability. After Ole Miss's win over LSU, Lane had once joked that he was looking for Whit to see if he 'covered the over' teasing him. At the same time, he was a significant player featured in the Netflix docuseries, SEC Football: Any Given Saturday, which is based on several Southeastern Conference teams and their behind-the-scenes moments from the 2024 season. Insiders suggested that Landry's bond to him might pull her father to Baton Rouge. 

Has Lane Kiffin reconciled with his wife, Layla Kiffin, after the divorce?

Another layer of drama in Lane Kiffin's life is the renewed conversation surrounding the reconciliation between Lane and Layla Kiffin. Although the couple got divorced in 2016, several outlets, including PEOPLE, mentioned that they have rekindled their relationship. Moreover, Layla, along with her son, Knox, moved back to Oxford in 2025. Lane even shared photos of Layla on the sidelines with sources claiming they are back together as a family. However, there is no official confirmation on their remarriage status. Subsequently, sources told Athlon Sports that Lane's top priority is the stability of his family and that he wants everyone on board before making a decision about the future of his coaching career.
