Ole Miss football fans have come to know the team as Wide Receiver U as of late, but the Rebels football team has always had elite wideouts.

The Ole Miss football team has a plethora of receivers at the helm for Chad Kelly to play with this season, but the Rebels have always had elite talent at the position.

Many Rebel fans know the names of these receivers as well. From Mike Wallace to Laquon Treadwell, the Rebels have made the position a priority.

Maybe the style of offense Ole Miss runs is attractive to receivers? It allows them to put up big numbers and showcase their talents.

Even under Houston Nutt, the team was running a high-power offense that allowed for receivers like Shay Hodge to put up some gaudy numbers for the Rebels.

So who is the best receiver at WRU? Well, let us get a few things out-of-the-way. This list is based on their career at Ole Miss, not their NFL career.

Each player will be evaluated by their stats, contributions to the team, and my own personal biases! Okay, maybe not that last part, but you get what I mean.

This list is not just based on stats, because there were wide receivers who played on teams with a slower offense, and there were receivers who played with bad quarterbacks.

So without further ado, here are the top ten receivers in Ole Miss football history.

Sound off in the comments with your favorite receivers.
