Ole Miss football is fully back in the summer swing. 

The Rebels spent the final weeks of May scattered about the country. Third-year starting quarterback Jaxson Dart and a collection of his top pass-catchers trained in California. Among them was rising sophomore Cayden Lee. Lee’s coming off an impressive spring and looking to break through in a stacked Ole Miss wide receivers room. 

Third-year defensive lineman Jared Ivey worked a bit in Tampa. All the while, the Rebels coaches have kept busy recruiting and fortifying the roster. Deion Smith, formerly of LSU, arrived on Saturday. The Rebels also committed a pair of transfer receivers over the weekend.

Put simply, the pieces are slowly, but surely, coming together for a title chase in 2024-25. Let the work begin. The included photos are courtesy of Ole Miss Athletics.

OLE MISS TRACK AND FIELD HEADS TO 2024 NCAA OUTDOOR CHAMPIONSHIPS

Ole Miss men’s and women’s track and field will be represented by 13 student-athletes in 14 different events on the highest stage of the collegiate track season at the 2024 NCAA Outdoor Championships, which return to TrackTown USA at the University of Oregon’s Hayward Field from June 5-8. 

The Top 8 finishers are named first-team All-American. Places 9-16 are placed on the second team, while the remaining eight receive honorable mention.

Ole Miss has finished Top 10 eight times in program history. Four have come in the last three years. The Rebels have produced 27 NCAA Champions, 320 first or second-Team All-American honorees and 38 Top 25 team finishes. 

Competition will begin for the Rebel men on Wednesday. The women follow on Thursday. Action on Friday and Saturday will be based on finals qualifying for the track events of the first two days.
