Ole Miss on Wednesday landed LSU transfer quarterback Walker Howard, and the Rebels are the favorite to pick up Oklahoma State’s Spencer Sanders. Oh, and the Rebels return last year’s starter, Jaxson Dart, too. Ole Miss finished 8-5 overall in the Rebel debut of the one-time Southern Cal transfer. Suffice to say Lane Kiffin and Co. have drastically overhauled their quarterback room in two months’...

Ole Miss football is already kicking the tires on Walker Howard, the now-former LSU quarterback who entered the NCAA Transfer Portal this week. Howard perfectly fits the criteria for what Lane Kiffin and staff have sought, for months, in a potential No. 2 quarterback behind starter Jaxson Dart. Even more, the Rebels have a built-in relationship with Howard that dates back to their heated pursuit o...

Ole Miss on Monday landed a commitment from coveted Memphis transfer tight end Caden Prieskorn. The addition of Prieskorn, who visited Ole Miss over the weekend, is significant for the Rebels in a number of ways. Perhaps most pressing, he provides Ole Miss with some much-needed Michael Trigg insurance. But Prieskorn's potential value goes so far beyond that. The Ole Miss Spirit's Ben Garre...

He held...

Ole Miss earlier this week laid an absolute egg in the Texas Bowl, marking the second straight postseason the Rebels closed out a season on a terribly disappointing note. Lane Kiffin, now entering his fourth season as head coach, finds himself in uncharted territory. Ole Miss is officially Kiffin's longest-tenured head coaching stop, and he's almost exclusively responsible for the long-ter...

Ole Miss on Wednesday closed out the 2022 football season with a thud, falling to Texas Tech in the Texas Bowl. The Rebels lost each of their last four games after winning their first seven. Historically, eight overall wins has been good enough for what most would consider a successful Ole Miss season. But Lane Kiffin is being compensated for much, much more and has asked anyone willing to listen...

Santa came for Ole Miss football. The Rebels over the Christmas holiday completely overhauled their wide receiver room with the additions of Tre Harris (Louisiana Tech) and Chris Marshall (Texas A&M) from the NCAA Transfer Portal.

Christmas time is here, and despite weeks of effort, Ole Miss' transfer wishlist is pretty much unchanged from when the portal first opened December 5. Ole Miss has missed on a handful of its top targets, among them Mississippi State wide receiver Rara Thomas, but others remain, and new needs have emerged. As the Ole Miss Spirit first-reported, the Rebels have been in contact with Oklahoma Sta...
