Presley Kiffin Commits to USC Volleyball: Trojan Colors or Family Loyalty for Lane Kiffin?
Lane Kiffin has a convoluted history with USC. In the early 2000s, when the Trojans saw tremendous success, he worked for Pete Carroll as the team’s offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. He later took the helm again in 2010 and guided the team through three turbulent seasons before being fired in the middle of the 2013 season. Blood is thicker than water, and it appears that familial ties are drawing Kiffin back into the Trojan fold, even if it’s just for volleyball.
High school junior Presley Kiffin is a gifted volleyball player with a promising future. She is an outside hitter who is well-known for her strong skills and presence on the field. Her promise was noticed by the USC volleyball coaching staff, who offered her a highly sought-after berth on their squad.
In an Instagram post she wrote, “I am beyond grateful to announce that I will be continuing my athletic and academic career at the University of Southern California. A huge thank you to the USC coaching staff for this amazing opportunity. I want to thank all my coaches, family, friends, and especially @mizunolongbeach for their incredible support and guidance throughout the past couple years. So excited be a Trojan! FIGHT ON❤️💛”
Presley revealed her decision to attend USC, thanking the coaching staff and recognizing her family’s and friends’ support. The announcement stunned the collegiate athletics community and sparked debates about Lane Kiffin’s possible awkwardness and the Kiffin family’s return to USC.
Presley’s dedication to USC may present the Kiffin family with an opportunity to repair their relationship with Trojan supporters. It remains to be seen if this is a true gesture of reconciliation or just Presley putting his sporting career first.
