Knox was also a member of the National Honors Society (NHS) club at his school, and was a Salutatorian of Central.

Knox at the tail-end of his senior year signed with the Alabama Crimson Tide Men's Basketball Team.

But Knox, while being a newer player, was one of the higher free throw percentage shooters on the team, as he shot 80 percent (12 of 15).

Since he had completed his degree and entered a masters program not offered at Alabama, he did not have to sit out his transfer year.

Knox came off the bench for the Tar Heels' 2010–11 Elite Eight team, averaging 6.1 points and 2.8 rebounds in 14.4 minutes per game.
