Mike Bianco and the Ole Miss Rebels stole the show during the 2025 MLB Draft with near double-digit members of the program hearing their names called.

Headlined by Mason Morris and Luke Hill, Bianco's crew was once again well-represented in the two-day event.

Now, after multiple Rebels heard their names called, it's decision time with the clock ticking until the deadline to sign.

Draft picks have until 4 p.m. CT on July 28 to sign with the club that selected them.

For the Ole Miss Rebels, the program knows what to expect with players already inking deals across the last week-plus.

“We anticipate all of those guys signing,” Ole Miss assistant coach Mike Clement said. “From Mason Morris, who I think is already signed, all the way through to Sam Tookoian. Our anticipation is all of them either have signed or will sign, and I don’t think we’ll get any of those guys back.

“If you get drafted inside the Top 10 rounds, you’re going to sign. Typically there’s a deal in place before they call your name. The real intrigue comes, for us, between the 11th and 20th round, like with Spencer and [Hunter] Elliott a year ago. Those aren’t as sure of a thing. But in a 20-round draft anymore, they’re drafting those guys to try to sign them.”

According to Rivals, here are the Ole Miss Rebels that have signed professional deals:

  • Mason Morris (83rd pick by Cincinnati Reds) – Signed / $897,000 bonus
  • Luke Hill (132nd pick by Cleveland Guardians) – Signed / NA bonus
