Kiffin's always been light years ahead of others his age - Oakland Tribune
...when Monte was the head coach at North Carolina State and had a weekly spot on a call-in radio show. Lane, 6, called the show and said if his dad could get a new contract, they could get a new blackboard for drawing plays.

Monte Kiffin said he remembers Lane watching him closely, drawing his own X's and O's, creating his own offenses and defenses.

"He loved challenges. Puzzles, Legos, creating things," Robin Kiffin said...

...By the time Lane was in high school, he was fluent in a football language that his teammates were just beginning to learn. He also was a point guard in basketball and played baseball, but was way ahead of the game in football...
