Coach Matt Luke and Ole Miss football are busy building a strong 2019 Ole Miss recruiting class and it got better this past Saturday.
Good things are beginning to happen for coach Matt Luke and Ole Miss football. While the jury is still out on the new Rebels coordinators heading into the 2019 season we are sure they are tearing up the recruiting trail. We’ve seen Matt Luke close down significantly good classes in the past and we should expect the same in 2019.
The Rebels took a hard hit to the roster with graduation, the 2019 NFL Draft and transfers. The importance of this class is paramount for replacing a depleted roster. Also building a great 2019 class would take some heat off Luke and his new refurbished staff. Saturday the Rebels picked up their fifth commitment for 2019 and OHT takes a look.
