Snoop Conner, RB

Sophomore Snoop Conner at 5’10 and 215 lbs has proven to be a bruising running back in the Rebels offense. While Conner may not have had the rushing yardage of Jerrion Ealy or Matt Corral,  he did finish as the third leading rusher for Ole Miss. Through ten games Snoop Conner had 93 carries for 447 tough yards, a 4.5 yards per carry average, and 8 touchdowns. Conner also had 12 receptions for 83 yards out of the backfield proving he can be a productive part of the Rebels passing offense.

When the Rebels need tough yards Conner is always reliable and has the size and durability to run inside and has the speed to break away for long gains. Conner has the ability to be a high-yardage producer in 2021 despite running behind Ealy. Snoop Conner is definitely an integral part of the Kiffin/Lebby offense and should have a huge junior season.
