The 6-foot-4, 185-pound multi-sport athlete, who also plays baseball and runs track, helped lead his Callaway team to a 9-3 record last season and a 6-2 district mark before the Chargers lost to Vicksburg in the playoffs.
Scott will bring a big, athletic frame to the wide receiver room in Oxford.

Scott held an array of offers and ultimately chose the Rebs over Mississippi State, Arkansas, Vanderbilt, Houston, Tulane, Arkansas State, Louisiana Tech, Memphis, Southern Miss, UNLV, Georgia State, Yale, Jackson State, Alcorn State, Austin Peay and Grambling State, among others.
His commitment marks the third for the 2024 class as he joins 4-star Basha High School (AZ) QB Demond Williams Jr. and 3-star Winona (MS) LB Fred Clark who chose the Rebels over State earlier this week.
Scott ranks as the No. 70 wide receiver in the nation and is the No. 10 athlete in the state by the industry-generated 247Sports Composite index.
Scott will have a busy spring ahead with his additional sports, as well as making plays with the Mesh Academy 7v7 team coached by former Rebel greats Shay Hodge and Mike Espy.
In addition to being a talented playmaker, Scott is also just as noteworthy in the classroom. When you get an offer from Yale to play ball, you must be pretty smart.

Ole Miss wide receivers coach Derrick Nix remained diligent in his recruitment campaign to keep Scott’s services here in the ‘Sip and it paid off.
Hotty Toddy!
Herring-Olvedo sees college football the way championship programs do—from inside the personnel room. Every evaluation, every roster move, every recruiting battle tells a bigger story about identity, culture, and how a program is built to win in December, not just July.
With more than 15 years covering the SEC and the national recruiting landscape, Herring-Olvedo has built a reputation as one of the sport’s most respected personnel-driven voices—blending film evaluation, roster construction, and long-term program vision through a true front-office lens. Her coverage of powerhouse brands like Ole Miss Rebels and Kentucky Wildcatshas consistently gone beyond headlines, focusing instead on the blueprint behind winning programs: development, fit, culture, and recruiting strategy.
That foundation was formed early at Brown University, where she worked in player personnel and recruiting while competing as a student-athlete. Inside those recruiting operations rooms, she learned how elite organizations are truly built—through relentless evaluation, relationship building, projection, and trust in the board. Those experiences shaped the way she studies the game today: part scout, part storyteller, part architect.
Her analysis and reporting have appeared across major platforms including ESPN, NFL coverage spaces, USA Today Sports, and Saturday Down South. She also brought her personnel-minded approach to the airwaves as an on-air analyst for the Wake Up 502 College Football Show on Big X Sports Radio 96.1, where she became known for combining film-room detail with a wider understanding of roster identity and program trajectory.
In 2025, covering the rise of Houston Cougars football under Willie Fritz reignited the part of the sport that first drew her into football—the culture, the edge, the belief that a roster can reshape an entire city. That inspiration led to the launch of Coogs 365 Sports, a platform built to cover Houston athletics through a true scouting and recruiting lens while connecting the emotion of the game to the heartbeat of H-Town.
Now, Herring-Olvedo returns to The Rebel Walk where with an even deeper perspective shaped by years inside recruiting circles, national SEC coverage, and hands-on evaluation experience. Her return brings a familiar voice back to Ole Miss coverage—but with an evolved lens rooted in roster architecture, player development, and the modern realities of building championship-caliber football in the NIL and portal era.
For Herring-Olvedo, recruiting has never been about stars beside a name. It is about identifying competitors, projecting growth, and building a locker room capable of sustaining success. Her philosophy mirrors the best front offices in football: stack traits, trust culture, and never stop building.
