Ole Miss grabs highly-touted QB

Ole Miss has beaten some of its biggest SEC rivals to three-star QB Ryan Buchanan, the Jackson Clarion-Ledger has reported.

The Jackson, Mississippi QB was recruited by the Rebels, Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Florida, Vanderbilt and cross-state rival Mississippi State, as well as Big XII giant Oklahoma State amongst others.

Buchanan told the paper: “I am 100% solid on it. I prayed about it. Two weeks ago I wasn’t sure about where I was going. But I’m at peace about it now. I’m fully confident and not changing my decision.”

He added: “I love Coach (Hugh) Freeze and I love the vision that Ole Miss has for the future and I want to be a part of that.”

The 6ft 4 Buchanan is rated as one of the country’s top 25 quarterbacks, and is thought of as being the best in the state.
