Ole Miss landed UTEP transfer WR Zakhari Franklin over the summer

Ole Miss offensively lost the middle of the field last season.

UTEP transfer wide receiver Zakhari Franklin has arrived to help the Rebels find it again.

Franklin committed to Lane Kiffin’s football Rebels over the weekend. His slant usage last season was among the best in college football, which should pair well with a tight end room featuring Michael Trigg and Caden Prieskorn, two one-time high-profile transfers.

Prieskorn was recently named one of the top returning tight ends in the country by Pro Football Focus.

Ben Garrett and Zach Berry have all the latest in this edition of Talk of Champions, as well as thoughts on Ole Miss landing three-star 2024 offensive lineman Joseph Cryer and a potential flip for four-star wide receiver JJ Harrell.
