September Recruiting Wrap-up: Where Does Ole Miss Stand With the Class of 2021?

Ole Miss football saw little action in the recruiting front until right at the end of September. Here's where they stand with the class of 2021 as we enter October.

It was a slow, slow month for Ole Miss recruiting, right up until the final hours of September.

Ole Miss landed their only commit of the month in the waning hours of Sept. 30, as SI All-American Candidate and stud athlete recruit Tysheem Johnson chose the Rebels over Arizona State, Alabama, LSU, Texas A&M, Maryland and Stanford.

A 5-foot-10, 185-pounder who will play safety for the Rebels, Johnson could realistically start day one in an Ole Miss secondary that could use some help.

As we enter October and sit less than three months from the opening of the early signing window, the Ole Miss class sits at thirteen players. Six key targets committed elsewhere, as you can find below, and a LOT are still undecided.

See below for all you need to know on where the class is. You can click on any of the committed player's names or uncommitted SI All-American targets for more.
