How Tristen Keys Could Transform Ole Miss Recruiting | Brian Smith on Ole Miss Recruiting

Welcome to "The Portal" podcast, where Ole Miss football recruiting takes center stage! 🎙️ Join host Steven Willis and guest Brian Smith as they explore the dynamic world of Ole Miss sports. 🏈 Tristen Keys, a top receiver prospect from Hattiesburg, Mississippi, is a pivotal target for Ole Miss.

With three new tight ends, could we see a shift to more 12 personnel formations? Discover how Ole Miss's "cap manager" is strategically managing NIL deals, akin to a "Moneyball" approach, to secure undervalued talent. 🏆 Austin Simmons, the potential quarterback sensation, is generating buzz with his quick processing ability reminiscent of Eli Manning. Could Simmons lead Ole Miss to a 9-10 win season and elevate the program to new heights? 🚀 Under Lane Kiffin, Ole Miss has reached a consistent 8-win floor. What's next for the Rebels?
