Ole Miss Still Making a Push for OL Brycen Sanders

One of the top offensive line prospects on the Ole Miss board, Brycen Sanders, is still feeling the attention from the Rebels coaching staff.

Producing even better offensive lines via recruiting has been a priority for Ole Miss going back to the 2022 recruiting class which includes four players that will be on the Ole Miss campus this fall.
