Summary
The first of two transfer windows has officially opened, and Ole Miss has hit the portal aisles with the energy of a Black Friday shopper at a Best Buy midnight sale.
The Rebels have plenty of needs, from wide receiver and tight end to EDGE and linebacker, and a number of targets have already emerged.
Among them is Mississippi State wide receiver Rara Thomas, who’s hammering out his visit schedule, including a potential trip to Ole Miss within the next 45 days.
Ben Garrett and David Johnson believe Thomas is exactly what the Rebels need, as they explain in this edition of Franchise Player, a site-crossover podcast of the Ole Miss Spirit (On3) and Inside the Rebels (247).
Plus, thoughts on the departure of Ole Miss offensive line coach Jake Thornton to Auburn, Derrick Nix’s looming decision to potentially follow him, other possible changes for Lane Kiffin’s coaching staff, and much, much more.
