Caleb Knight brings size, speed, and two-way athletic pedigree to VMI’s secondary
In the 2025 season, VMI listed Caleb Knight as a 6-foot, 180-pound freshman cornerback from Charlotte, and his high school background as a quarterback, receiver, and track hurdler hints at the kind of multi-sport athleticism that can translate well on the back end.[5][7] He entered the program with a reputation for toughness and versatility, and VMI’s signing note said he would help “solidify a proud VMI secondary,” which is a strong sign the staff sees him as a competitive, developmental fit.[5] Public stat trackers show limited 2025 production so far, so his value right now looks more about upside, speed, and coverage potential than box-score flash.[2][4]
