would assume he had everything lined up to graduate in May, most high school seniors should be preparing that way.
Very unfortunate that the staff didn't see him as a fit anymore, he was committed prior to his senior year. They may have felt he hadn't developed enough.. Who knows.
What is known is the roster will be short on LBs next year and the team will need experienced lbs because unfortunately there won't be time to develop. They will probably need to bring in another Juco LB as well.

I hope the young man finds somewhere he can shine, and does great things in his career.


Kid is in a sticky situation... Since he completely shut down his recruitment, he would have to find another school that a) has a need and wants him this late in the game 2) find a school that he is comfortable at as well.

I don't see him grey shirting and taking the chance that Ole Miss could dump him again next year....just a guess on my part. I would imagine he can either find a suitable fit or go the JUCO route.

Yeah grey shirting is not ideal because of what ifs. What if I don't go on scholarship after a year. what if I could start else where.
And also paying for the first year is an unwanted burden. Unless he can get a pail grant and mtag or similar grants and scholarships to cover it..
Did ole miss put him in touch with prospective schools that you know?
I would think Memphis, Arkansas state or Mizzou, or Juco like NW. Ms State maybe, but I think they are full at Lb, and Tennesse is overloaded with commits. If he has the grades vandy would be a nice situation.
I'm from desoto county I feel for him.
