Ole Miss Rebels

The Ole Miss Rebels just landed a major priority recruit for the 2023 cycle. 

Marvin Burks, the St. Louis (Mo.) Cardinal Ritter blue-chip defender, had narrowed his list to five programs with a public verbal commitment, with Ole Miss, Texas A&M, Missouri, LSU and Oklahoma as the finalists.

Now, he has made that decision official, committing to the Rebels, and becoming their fourth safety commitment of the class, alongside Daniel Demery, Ahmad Brown, and Braxton Myers.

He is also the eighth defensive commitment thus far, including linebackers Suntarine Perkins and Skielar Mann, and edge rushers Neeo Avery and Jamarious Brown. 

Burks was in Oxford for the Kentucky game earlier this month and also took an Ole Miss official visit back in June. Other summer trips included College Station and the in-state Missouri Tigers as well.

Before committing to the Rebels, Burks had 28 total offers, and 26 FBS offers, including Arkansas, Florida, LSU, Miami, Michigan, Michigan State, Missouri, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Oregon, Texas A&M, USC, Washington, Wisconsin, and West Virginia. 

With Burks now in the bag, the Rebels have a total 13 commitments in the 2023 class, and are trending as one of the hotter teams on the recruiting trail in recent months.
