Lane Kiffin and his staff are still fresh off of signing the best recruiting class at Ole Miss in nearly a decade, and certainly the best of the Transfer Portal and NIL era(s). Now they’re trying to make sure they repeat that effort for 2026 as they build a strong foundation around new starting quarterback Austin Simmons.
Kiffin has been busy on the recruiting trail this spring making several crucial visits, and leveling up among several top targets as recruits begin revealing finalist schools for their services. It’s apparently paying off already.
Bryce Gilmore, a high four star offensive tackle recruit recruit from Prosper, Texas just narrowed his top schools down to six and Ole Miss was announced as a finalist. Gilmore is also still considering Penn State, Arizona State, Arkansas, and Texas Tech, but Ole Miss looks like they’re in a great spot to potentially land him.
