Devin Rockette commits to Ole Miss: DB brings speed, not stars

Unrated by most of the major crootin services, the 2017 Oxford High product will lean on his sub-4.4 speed to carve out an eventual role in the Rebel secondary.

After securing a commitment from offensive lineman Lavante Epson, Hugh Freeze and his staff are keeping it going with a verbal pledge via Twitter from defensive back Devin Rockette. Ole Miss now has eight commits in the 2017 class, three from the Magnolia State.

Rockette is not a highly-regarded prospect. Unrated by 247Sports, Scout and ESPN (Rivals has him as a three-star), the Oxford High corner is still waiting for an offer from a school not named Ole Miss.
