Ole Miss in Strong Position for IOL Tyreek Jemison Following Official Visit
OXFORD, Miss. — Lane Kiffin and the Ole Miss Rebels appear to have made a major impression on one of their top offensive line targets. Tyreek Jemison, a highly regarded interior offensive lineman from Birmingham, Alabama, wrapped up his official visit to Oxford over the weekend, and early indications suggest the Rebels are in a strong position as his recruitment moves forward.
Jemison, a 6-foot-4, 295-pound mauler out of Parker High School, has seen his stock rise considerably over the past few months. Known for his power at the point of attack and polished technique for a high school lineman, Jemison is drawing interest from top programs across the SEC and beyond. But coming out of his visit to Ole Miss, it’s clear that the Rebels have established themselves as one of the frontrunners.
“The visit was everything I was hoping for,” Jemison told reporters. “Coach Kiffin, Coach Thornton, and the whole staff showed a lot of love. It felt like family, and I can see myself being part of that culture.”
Jemison’s official visit included in-depth time with offensive line coach John Garrison, who emphasized how Jemison could fit into the Rebels’ evolving offensive scheme. With Ole Miss pushing toward a more balanced attack to complement its explosive passing game, securing a strong interior line presence like Jemison is a high priority.
Recruiting insiders say Jemison left Oxford with Ole Miss in at least his top two, if not leading altogether. While programs like Auburn, Florida State, and Tennessee remain heavily involved, the Rebels may have taken a decisive step with their presentation and relationship-building.
“This visit was a big one,” said one SEC recruiting analyst. “Jemison’s connection with the staff and the opportunity for early playing time are both major factors. Ole Miss made a clear case for why he’d thrive there.”
The Rebels have made a concerted effort to bolster the offensive trenches in the 2025 recruiting class, and Jemison would be a foundational piece. His combination of size, agility, and football IQ make him a high-upside prospect with SEC starter potential.
As Jemison continues his official visit schedule, Ole Miss fans should feel optimistic. The Rebels have done what they needed to do — now it’s about maintaining momentum and closing the deal. A summer decision is likely, and all signs point to Ole Miss being firmly in the mix.
