The Vicksburg, Miss. native should have four years of eligibility remaining given the NCAA ruling recently that JUCO time would not count against eligibility.
After committing to Western Kentucky, Hall decided staying home in the Magnolia State was a better idea.
“I chose Ole Miss because it’s always been my dream school and I figured why not stay in Mississippi and be close to home. There’s no reason for me to leave my home state when my family is here and some great football is played here.”
