Just in: Ole Miss Snags Elite 4-Star CB Jontavius Wyman Over Top SEC Competition.

Lane Kiffin and the Ole Miss Rebels continue to make waves on the recruiting trail, landing a major commitment from elite 4-star cornerback Jontavius Wyman, the No. 14 overall prospect in the 2025 class. Wyman, a highly coveted defensive back, chose the Rebels over a stacked list of SEC contenders, including Texas, Florida State, Arkansas, and Tennessee.

Hailing from Georgia, Wyman has been a standout at the high school level, showcasing elite speed, ball skills, and physicality that made him one of the most sought-after cornerbacks in the nation. His commitment gives Ole Miss a game-changing piece in its secondary, further strengthening a defense that has been a priority for Kiffin’s staff.

Texas and Florida State made a strong push for Wyman, with both programs offering compelling cases in terms of development and NIL opportunities. However, the Rebels’ staff, led by defensive backs coach Sam Carter, built a strong relationship with Wyman and his family, ultimately sealing the deal.

At 6-foot-1, 180 pounds, Wyman has the ideal frame and athleticism to excel in the SEC. He’s a dynamic playmaker who thrives in both man and zone coverage, capable of shutting down top receivers and creating turnovers. His commitment is a statement for Ole Miss, proving the Rebels can go head-to-head with some of the biggest brands in college football for elite talent.

With Wyman in the fold, Ole Miss’ 2025 recruiting class continues to rise, positioning the Rebels as a serious force in the SEC for years to come.
