Chandler (Ariz.) edge rusher Landen Wade continues a meteoric rise this offseason with programs across the country entering the race for the coveted Arizona defender.

Wade has seen offers galore roll in as of late with Pete Golding and the Ole Miss Rebels dishing out one of their own this week with the coaching staff eyeing the fast-riser.

The 6-foot-4, 256-pounder has reeled in scholarships from the likes of the Ole Miss Rebels, Oregon Ducks, Miami Hurricanes, Texas A&M Aggies, Minnesota Gophers, and Kansas State Wildcats, among several others, across his time on the prep scene.

After a strong performance at the Under Armour Camp in Phoenix this past weekend, Wade has surged as a player to monitor in the 2028 Recruiting Cycle with offers coming in - including his recent call from the Ole Miss coaching staff.

Defensive line coach Randall Joyner will look to run point guard here in the Rebels' pursuit, but it's clear the coveted edge rusher has the chance to blow up this offseason with powerhouse programs quickly entering the race.
