The Ole Miss coaching staff is wearing the transfer portal out, using it to revamp and reload a roster that just logged 10 wins and a Sugar Bowl appearance last season.
The latest addition to the Rebels is hometown star J.J. Pegues from Auburn. A converted defensive tackle standing at 6’3” and a swift-moving 310 lbs., Pegues played at Oxford High School as an offensive threat in the Chargers run to a 6A title.
He kicked off his freshman season in 2020 as a tight end, before making the move to defensive line during the 2021 season.
