Top player in Mississippi Suntarine Perkins reaffirms his commitment to Ole Miss
OXFORD, Miss. — MVP of the state championship game. Mississippi’s Mr. Football for Class 3A. Max Preps Mississippi Player of the Year. Mississippi MVP of Mississippi-Alabama All-Star Game. Those are just a few of the recent accolades earned by Ole Miss commit Suntarine Perkins.
Although Alabama had been pushing hard as of late, the talented Raleigh High star reaffirmed his commitment to the Rebels Sunday night via Twitter.

“To my family, thank you for all your support and unconditional love. Your support at games, practices and workouts means the world to me and you are my why.
To the city of Raleigh, thank you for all of your prayers and support. It has been an awesome ride. This has been a long process getting to this point but I want to thank all the schools that offered and spent time recruiting me.
At this point, I want to let the world know that I’m 100 locked in and 1000% going to Ole Miss. Excited for the future and can’t wait to get to work.”
After a great deal of speculation in the high school recruiting world, Rebels are feeling easier about Perkins, the top-ranked pledge in the Rebels’ 2023 class, remaining solid with his commitment to attend Ole Miss.
Perkins, who is being recruited to the Rebels as a linebacker — but who could play running back or receiver — finished his senior season with 2,081 rushing yards and 32 touchdowns.
He also was a staple on the 14-1 Lions’ defense where he notched 92 tackles, 5 sacks, 4 interceptions, 4 fumble recoveries.
After the Alabama-Mississippi All-Star Game Saturday, Perkins arrived in Oxford for his official visit to Ole Miss. His visit must have gone well given his recommitment to the Rebels.
Hotty Toddy!
