Lane Kiffin Adds Versatile OL Ryan Miret to Ole Miss’ 2026 Class

OXFORD, Miss. — Lane Kiffin and his Ole Miss coaching staff have just pulled off a monumental commitment that strengthens the Rebels’ offensive line, receiving a pledge Monday from IOL Ryan Miret from Miami Southridge.
During his official visit this weekend, it didn’t take long for Miret to realize he wanted to be part of the next generation of Rebels, as he committed in private before sharing the news with the Rebel family on social media.

This isn’t just a victory for Ole Miss on the recruiting front; it’s a strategic move that addresses a critical need for robust depth in the offensive line.
Standing 6-feet-4 inches and weighing in at 290 pounds, Miret is ranked as the No. 60 interior offensive lineman in the country and the No. 80 overall prospect emerging from Florida. With Miami making aggressive efforts to secure more talent—even after signing five-star OT Jackson Cantwell—the Rebels managed to clinch this promising athlete by offering him not only development opportunities but also potential early playing time. They also outmaneuvered Nebraska for this talented Miami native.
A Perfect Fit in the ‘Sip
Miret’s transition from defense to offense has been impressive—and it hasn’t gone unnoticed by scouts and coaches. This versatile two-way player possesses essential skills that will fortify Ole Miss’s trenches.
His exceptional wrestling background also helps set him apart, and this experience makes him an ideal candidate for becoming a formidable center in the future. Moreover, his adaptability across various positions on the line—especially at guard—makes him an invaluable utility lineman.
This is a strong recruiting win for Coach Kiffin and for offensive line coach John Garrison as they bring yet another top-tier lineman to The Sip!
