Three-star do-it-all athlete Kam White surprised the recruiting world last spring when he committed to Iowa State, spurning offers from an impressive list of SEC offers that includes Alabama, Auburn, Florida and Tennessee. The Mississippi Dandy Dozen prospect backed off that verbal pledge on Wednesday, however, announcing his decommitment on Twitter. That opens the door for Hugh Freeze, who’s been pursuing White—a high school teammate of longtime Rebel target Cam Akers—for some time.
Sources told The Clarion-Ledger that the Rebels are now the favorite to land White. His 247Sports Crystal Ball immediately shifted in the Rebels’ favor after his decommitment from the Cyclones.
