Ole Miss recruiting has been a mess so far this season, but here are the five guys the Rebels should sign if they want to compete in the future.

The recruiting cycle has been a roller coaster of emotions this season. Ole Miss has been keying in on some special recruits as of late, as Ole Miss looks to improve on the 5-7 season this year.

While recruiting has been a strong suit for Freeze, it is hard to recruit when you do not have a wide receiver, linebacker, or a defensive line coach.

Ole Miss has hired Wesley McGriff, a known recruiter, as the new defensive coordinator. The Rebels look to bring a few of McGriff’s Auburn targets with him once he joins the team.

While there is one name that every Ole Miss fan knows, there are a few other kids on this list that might be new to some of our readers.

The Rebels have cast a wide net of offers as of late, keying in on linebackers and defensive backs.

Ole Miss has to continue to bring in talent if they want to compete in the SEC, something that Ole Miss keeps saying it wants to do.

Can Freeze and company bring the Rebels their first ever modern-day SEC championship? Time will tell.
