Top 3 Ole Miss freshman football players to watch out for

#3. Maison Dunn (CB)

Hailing from Tupelo, Mississippi, Maison Dunne is a 6-foot-2.5, 180 pounds cornerback who is ranked No. 133 nationally, No. 20 in his position and No. 5 overall in Mississippi. He enrolled on May 5, 2024.

He'll have a huge responsibility on his shoulder to potentially replace cornerback Trey Amos, who has declared for the 2025 NFL draft and is projected to be an early pick.

#2. Devin Harper (IOL)

The Rebels won Devin Harper's recruitment by flipping him from his initial commitment to LSU.

The interior offensive lineman went to Calvary Baptist Academy in Louisiana. He stands 6-4 tall and weighs 300 pounds. According to On3, he ranks No. 84 Nationally, No. 6 in his position and No. 3 in Louisiana.

#1. Caleb Cunningham (WR)

Caleb Cunningham is Ole Miss' top recruit from the class of 2025 for Lane Kiffin. The four-star prospect flipped his commitment from Alabama to sign with the Rebels in November. He's expected to make an immediate impression for the program in 2025, with the head coach lavishing praises on him.

"(Cunningham) could be huge," Kiffin said. "(Flipping him) was really big. He's a great player. At one point, obviously, it looked like he was leaving the state. We got him back. Great kid. Great family.

"We're in a position of need next year with losing so much there. We have very high expectations for him."

The 6-2, 180 pounds receiver will join Tre Harris, Jordan Watkins and Juice Wells to help the team thrive in 2025. Moreover, his inclusion would allow Ole Miss to transition well from above-mentioned seniors.

According to On3, Cunnighman is ranked No. 39 in the nation, No. 7 among wide receivers and No. 2 in Mississippi.
