2024 LB Jordan Lockhart decommits from Ole Miss

Bellflower (Calif.) St. John Bosco three-star linebacker Jordan Lockhart has decommitted from Ole Miss. He announced the news on Twitter.

Lockhart is the No. 391 overall prospect and No. 41 linebacker in the 2024 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 30 player in California.

“The visit was great. It was awesome,” Lockhart told BamaInsider. “I really enjoyed it. Like I said, I really like the culture here at Alabama… I wish there were bigger words [to describe it].”

During the visit Lockhart told BamaInsider’s Joseph Hastings that he was able to talk with Nick Saban one-on-one for the third time. He was also able to meet and talk with new linebackers coach Robert Bala and defensive coordinator Kevin Steele for the first time.

“We had a great talk as far as how they see me fitting into the Alabama scheme if I was to possibly go up there,” Lockhart told On3. “Both guys, Coach Robert and Coach Steele, are down to earth… it was great, man.”
