Ole Miss Surging in Recruitment Battle for Four-Star Georgia DB Target
The Ole Miss Rebels are making serious waves on the recruiting trail, and their latest momentum shift is grabbing headlines. According to multiple recruiting insiders, Lane Kiffin’s staff is trending heavily for a highly-coveted four-star defensive back currently on Georgia’s radar.
The recruit, a lockdown corner from the state of Georgia, has recently moved Ole Miss to the top of his list after a standout official visit to Oxford. While the Georgia Bulldogs were considered early favorites, sources say the Rebels have made a lasting impression with their player-first culture, defensive scheme fit, and immediate opportunity to play in the SEC.
“The visit to Ole Miss was eye-opening,” the recruit said. “The coaches made me feel like a priority, and I can see myself thriving in their defense. It’s a place where I can come in, compete early, and get developed the right way.”
Georgia hasn’t backed off, but Ole Miss is now considered the team to beat, with an announcement expected in the coming weeks. If the Rebels close the deal, it would mark yet another major win in a growing list of high-profile commitments this cycle.
Kiffin and his staff have emphasized bolstering the secondary, and this prospect would bring elite speed, length, and ball-hawking ability to a defense that’s already on the rise. Analysts say he has the tools to contribute as a freshman and evolve into an All-SEC caliber player.
With a top-20 national ranking already in place, adding this four-star DB would give Ole Miss even more recruiting clout — and deliver another blow to its SEC rivals.
The Rebels are rising, and the rest of the conference is officially on notice.
