Ole Miss Offensive Tackle Commit Kenneth Boston Discusses Official Visit for Egg Bowl
OXFORD, Miss. — There can be a lot of uncertainty in recruiting, especially as next week’s signing day draws closer. But that’s not the case with 2025 offensive tackle Kenneth Boston who has been solidly committed to Ole Miss since June.
Boston has dreamed of playing on the big stage in a place like the SEC since as far back as he can remember. The 6-foot-8 offensive lineman out of Monroe, LA will be at the Egg Bowl for his official visit.

While defense wins championships, as the old saying goes, so does a team strong in the trenches. Head coach Lane Kiffin and staff are looking to continue to add size and physicality to the front lines, and the arrival of Boston will be much welcomed in helping make this future Rebel offensive line stronger.
Boston heads into signing day as the No 76 overall offensive tackle in the nation and the No. 37 overall player from the state of Louisiana.

We had a chance to catch up with Boston to get some pre-Egg Bowl visit thoughts.
A Visit with Kenneth Boston
RW: You’re less than one week away from putting ink to paper and becoming a Rebel. What are you most looking forward on your official visit?
Boston: I am really looking forward to watching the Rebels dominate the Dawgs.
RW: What has stood out about the way the Rebels have played this season?
Boston: What stands out to me is how they handle adversity and how they deal with all the negativity and how they shake back from tough losses.
RW: What are you most looking forward to bringing to this team?
Boston: I’m looking forward to bringing a spark of some happiness, my work ethic, and determination.
RW: For other prospects that will be on hand, what would you tell them is the reason they should come to the ‘Sip?
Boston: I feel like they should come to the ‘Sip because there’s no other place like it. All the people are great. There are a lot of greats that came through the place, and it gives you a chance to be great, yourself, so make a good decision and come on to the ‘Sip! #hottytoddy
Boston is another gem the Rebels are looking forward to developing at a crucial time for the offensive front. The multi-sport athlete will be welcome for not just his size and physicality, but also for his leadership and eagerness to help Ole Miss continue its legacy of winning.
Hotty Toddy!
