Ole Miss looking to put final work into flipping five-star Alabama commit
Ole Miss is still pursuing Caleb Cunningham, the top in-state talent from the 2025 class. Ranked the No. 1 player in Mississippi, Cunningham has been committed to Alabama since July.
Other programs, such as Auburn and Florida, have tried to convince him to change his commitment. However, one threat remains to the Crimson Tide: the Rebels, who have an excellent chance to secure a program-changing commitment.

It was announced this week that Caleb Cunningham would attend the Georgia game on Saturday, part of a sold-out recruitment section for Ole Miss. The five-star wide receiver only just visited two weeks ago, in the Week 9 win against Oklahoma.

All the signs are posostive and Kiffin is doing eveything possible, not letting him leave until Sunday morning the last tim he was in Oxford for a Saturday game.

Ole Miss has one of the best offenses in college football, and next season, it will have a talented sophomore quarterback in Austin Simmons. Cunningham and Simmons have communicated a lot with this season's backup quarterback, pushing to get the 2025 recruit to come to Oxford.
""Me and Austin have a great relationship. He's fun to be around. That's my dawg for sure. He's telling me to stop playing ans come to the SIP!" "
