Frank Gore’s son commits to FAU

Lane Kiffin FAU

Frank Gore is one the best running backs to ever come out of the University of Miami, but his son will not be following in his footsteps.

Gore’s son, running back Frank Gore Jr., committed to FAU this week. He’s choosing to play for Lane Kiffin after getting offers from several other schools, but it does not sound like Miami was one of them.

The elder Gore missed time at Miami because of a knee injury in 2002, but he averaged an absurd 9.1 yards per carry while helping to lead Miami to a national title during his freshman season. He ended up with 1,975 yards and 17 touchdowns in his college career, but the Hurricanes must not think his son has as much talent. Either way, Gore Jr. will have a good chance to thrive playing in Kiffin’s offense.
