Ole Miss’ recruiting haul during the Early Signing Period was underwhelming. Not bad per se—the Rebels held on to all their commits and came out the other side ranked 22nd in the country—but certainly not exciting. Ole Miss hats were on the table for only a couple of the nationally-televised announcement ceremonies and neither of those hats were picked up.
The climax of Wednesday’s action came when five-star Nakobe Dean, who lives 45 minutes from Oxford and has a brother playing for Ole Miss, lifted a red Georgia Bulldogs shirt out of a Nike shoe box.
