Things will get interesting for one family whenever Vanderbilt and Ole Miss meet on the gridiron.

The Commodores, based on a 247Sports report, received a commitment from three-star cornerback Collin Flanigan, whose dad is a men’s basketball assistant coach, and his older brother played baseball at Ole Miss (and Auburn).

Flanigan is the second corner back in Vanderbilt’s 2026 recruiting class, joining Caden Harris who committed to Vanderbilt back in April. He chose Vanderbilt over offers from Tulane, Memphis, Cincinnati, FIU and others.

Vanderbilt will host a group of nine recruits later this week, including a cornerback, Kasmir Hicks, that is committed to Indiana. Here’s the full list:
