After camp in Oxford, we had the chance to catch up with DJ to get his thoughts about the camp and the offer from the Rebels.
Bordeaux talked about his experience and what it was like when he arrived.
“Basically, I got there and went through a tour of the facility and it is beautiful. I genuinely loved it…it’s perfect for everyone. Then we went to position meetings where I got to meet all my position coaches and the offensive coordinator. By far this is the best staff in the country.”
DJ Bordeaux
Bordeaux was very impressed with the time the Ole Miss staff spent with him, commenting on that after the visit.
“After spending all that time with them and learning all the things about the offense, I know that is somewhere I would want to be. Coach Judge had talked to me one-on-one for about an hour, and we probably had one of the best conversations I’ve ever had with a coach. It felt really connected and he made me feel like there was more to me than football and he’s just a great dude.”

We asked Bordeaux to talk about the highlights for him of his camp and visit.
“…We got to go on a campus tour and the campus is small and convenient. I love it because everything is connected for the student athletes. I had a great time at camp, and I was fired up all day to get to work with the coaches. I was very excited to see how they coach because that is big for me. They did a phenomenal job and I had a lot of fun at that camp working and learning. Overall, I had an amazing day at Ole Miss and can’t wait to be back.”

DJ is another athlete whose hard work and effort at camp in front of the Rebs paid off, as he earned himself an offer. His offer sheet is already up to 25, as he headed back to Georgia with the ‘Sip on his mind.
