Five-star wide receiver Caleb Cunningham is among the best recruits in the class of 2025. Last week, he announced he was committing to Alabama, which looked inevitable given the talk amongst recruiting experts.
After the announcement, it was unclear if Cunningham would attend Ole Miss's "Juice Fest" and Auburn's "Big Cat Weekend" on the last weekend of July. Reports confirmed he would attend, but Cunningham took to social media to confirm one thing.
I DONT CARE WHAT NOBODY SAY!! THERE IS NO FLIPPING! 😂 #RTR 🐘 https://t.co/9YDST4ak8U

Yes, the Mississippi prospect said whatever people were reporting or saying, he would not be flipping to Ole Miss or Auburn; he was fully locked in with Alabama. The Crimson Tide were likely not worried, but it's always reassuring to hear from the player.
It's not uncommon for players to say they aren't considering flipping but then make a U-turn in the future. However, Caleb Cunningham seems serious about where he will play his football in 2025.
We are still far off early signing day, and things can change. All it takes is for a swing in momentum on the field for or against for a player to rethink his options. We shall see if that will be true for Caleb Cunningham, the No. 3 ranked wide receiver in the 2025 class.
Recruiting next July will look different for Ole Miss and college football
College football recruiting is still going strong in July, but it will be very different in 2025. Starting next year, July will be a quiet period when it comes to recruiting in college football.
A quiet period in college football or any NCAA sport is where a college coach may only have face-to-face contact with college-bound student-athletes or their parents on the college’s campus. A coach may not watch student-athletes compete or visit their high schools.
It's seen as a good move for coaches, as they can concentrate on the new season ahead. Fall camp usually starts the first week of August for teams, with more time to focus on preparations. One thing Ole Miss will need to do in 2025 is find a new day for the annual "Juice Fest."
