No. 2 WR in Mississippi, Top LSU Target Projected to Commit to SEC Rival
One of the top wide receivers in the 2025 recruiting class is making headlines—and not for the reasons LSU fans were hoping. Noreel White, ranked as the No. 2 wideout in Mississippi and a prized target for the LSU Tigers, is now projected to commit to one of LSU’s SEC rivals, sending ripples across the college football recruiting landscape.
White, a 4-star prospect out of Ocean Springs, Mississippi, has drawn significant interest from multiple SEC powerhouses due to his elite route-running, explosive speed, and big-play ability. Standing at 6-foot-1 and possessing a versatile skill set, White has been high on LSU’s radar for months, with the Tigers hoping to add his talent to their already strong 2025 class. However, recent crystal ball predictions and insider reports suggest that the momentum has shifted toward another SEC program—most notably, the Ole Miss Rebels.
The possibility of White committing to Ole Miss would be a huge win for Lane Kiffin’s program and a tough blow for LSU, who has been working hard to lock down top regional talent. If the prediction holds true, it would continue a recent trend of Mississippi’s elite recruits opting to stay in-state or head to rival SEC schools.
For LSU, missing out on White doesn’t derail their recruiting efforts entirely, but it does raise the stakes in securing other top receivers in the class. Meanwhile, for Ole Miss, landing White would strengthen their offensive arsenal and deepen their talent pipeline within the state.
As decision day approaches, all eyes remain on White’s next move, with implications that could shape SEC competition for years to come. LSU fans will hope for a late turnaround, but the momentum may already be out of the
ir hands.
