Boom! Elite 2000YD wide receiver for Lane Kiffins’ Ole Miss. The Rebels are acquiring 2026 pledges while Lane Kiffin assembles his impressive 2025 transfer portal class. The three-star wide receiver is ranked No. 42 in California and No. 65 among receivers in his class. He is teammates with Ryder Lyons, the Rebels’ top target for the upcoming class and the best quarterback in California. One of the most popular West Coast possibilities from Big 12 and Big Ten colleges was anticipated to be Folsom. But Sacramento’s 5’11, 170lb wide receiver has officially committed to the SEC.

According to Hayes Fawcett’s most recent post, class of 2026 wideout Jameson Powell is the top 2000YD wide receiver. He camped in Oxford in June before going back in July for another visit. And six months later, Kiffin’s Ole Miss has received a commitment from California’s No. 42 prospect. In addition to three-star athlete Zion Legree, Powell is the second recruit in Kiffin’s 2026 class, as Lane Kiffin’s class for 2026 is still modest.

Powell established himself as a rising star in 2023 by hauling 86 catches for 1,231 yards and 14 touchdowns in his sophomore campaign. Despite having nearly 20 offers such as Washington, Arizona, Oregon, Powell selected Ole Miss. As they met several of his requirements. Thanks to the coaches. “The coaches are great. They recruited me hard, they made me feel wanted and they will help me develop. My parents helped me a lot too. They love the coaches, they felt comfortable with my decision and we all felt good about this,” Powell remarked.

Moreover, he added, “Coach Charlie Weiss, Jr. recruited me first, then coach McDonald and we have great relationships. Those two and coach Kiffin will be coaching me and helping me develop at Ole Miss.” On top of that, in his statement, Powell tweeted, “I’m home #hottytoddy,” and tagged coaches Lane Kiffin and George McDonald. However, in addition to coaching, the conference and environment deserve recognition for obtaining this wide receiver.

“I have wanted to play in the SEC my whole life. I watched college football since I was a kid and I have always wanted to go play against the best. and that is why I chose to play in the SEC with Ole Miss,” said Powell. And speaking on the environment, Powell said, “What has stood out most is how family-oriented they are as a program, and I liked that the most.”

Nonetheless, the recent commitments made by Lane Kiffin make a powerful message. Powerful remark implies that Ole Miss’s consecutive acquisitions are top wide receivers. Jameson Powell, the Folsom graduate, is one you are already familiar with, but what about the other wide receiver?

Lane Kiffin got a wide receiver from the transfer portal

Nowadays, there isn’t really an offseason, and with so many recruiting pitches available, a program must be able to “turn it up” in order to stand out and advance. Lane Kiffin is an expert at it, as is his crew. Through the transfer portal, they now have another elite receiver.

Harrison Wallace III left PSU and went via the transfer portal as a result of the wide receiver’s abysmal performance in the Orange Bowl defeat to Notre Dame. Wallace then committed to play his final season of college at Ole Miss on Sunday, joining Lane Kiffin.

In the first season under OC Andy Kotelnicki, in 2024, Wallace was the top wide receiver at Penn State. He caught a career-high 46 catches for 720 yards and four scores, but Tyler Warren, the Mackey Award-winning TE, led them.

The most intriguing fact is that this elite WR played against Ole Miss in 2023 and now in 2025 he will play for them. Now let’s see with a high school receiver for the 2026 class and a transfer portal receiver for the 2025 class how Lane Kiffin’s Miss performs.
