“First I would like to thank Coach Kiffin, Coach Weis, and all of the Ole Miss staff that has believed in my abilities and been there for me since day 1. I will forever appreciate the consistent love from the fanbase and community of Oxford. 

After careful consideration and talks with my family and God, it is in my best interest to take a step back and decommit from the University of Mississippi and re-open my recruitment. 

Ole Miss will still be one of my top choices, thank you and please respect my decision. God’s Plan.
