Nkemdiche chose the Rebels over LSU and Florida.  Coming along for the ride will be the nation’s No. 1 receiver Laquon Treadwell, No. 1 offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil, and No. 2 safety Antonio Conner.

“I feel like it’s the right place for me,” Nkemdiche said after his announcement. “I feel like they can do special things, and they’re on the rise. I feel like going to play with my brother [Denzel Nkemdiche] we can do something special.”

Mississippi finished 7-6 in 2012 under second-year head coach Hugh Freeze.

“I’m so thankful and blessed that these families have chosen to trust in us,” Freeze said. “We’ll treat these young men as our own.”
