Ole Miss visitor list for Mercer game: Prospects and commits headed to Oxford

OXFORD, Miss. — We are less than 24 hours away from kickoff in Oxford! In addition to all the fans who will be there watching head coach Lane Kiffin’s Ole Miss football team Saturday against Mercer, there will be a number of Rebel recruits at the game, as well. 

It’s hard to believe, but we are also only 110 days away from Early Signing Day for the Class of 2024 recruits.

So, it is back to business on the recruiting trail as the dead period ended Thursday night when the clock struck midnight. After many of the nation’s top prospects finish their own games Friday night, they will hop on planes, trains and automobiles to take in college games days from coast to coast.

This will be the first time back on campus for many of our Ole Miss commits and prospects since July. The Ole Miss 2024 recruiting class is currently ranked No. 17 in the nation by Rivals.com.

Here’s a list of visitors we expect to be in Oxford for the season opener.
