3. Larrell Murchison, 3-Star DT (Elizabethtown, North Carolina)

Murchison is the only current Ole Miss commit on this list, but e’s on this list because he is the important and Ole Miss cannot afford to lose him. Murchison’s recruitment has soared in recent weeks, as he has gathered offers from Ole Miss, Texas, Houston and Georgia, all since January 4th. It is easy to say that Murchison is much desired by many top programs and has certainly seen his recruitment take off in the final month of the recruiting season. Ole Miss was the first major program to offer, and he committed immediately after. Since then, Georgia as emerged as the biggest threat to the Rebels keeping Murchison’s commitment.

Murchison is a solid defensive lineman that can play both defensive tackle and defensive end. He projects more as tackle as he is 6′-4″ and 290lbs. While he has remained committed to Ole Miss, Georgia is projected by 247sports to end up signing him. Ole Miss needs a disruptive tackle, like Murchison, and needs to do all that they can in the end to sign him.

Larrell Murchison is rated as the 11th best defensive tackle in the junior college ranks by 247sports.
