Tallahassee (Fla.) Lincoln four-star cornerback Kahmaree Crumity is set to make his way to Oxford this weekend for an unofficial visit with Pete Golding and the Ole Miss Rebels as the program intensifies its pursuit.

Crumity checks in as a Top-25 cornerback in the 2028 Recruiting Cycle with programs across America fighting for his commitment this offseason - including the Ole Miss Rebels.

The 6-foot, 175-pounder out of the Sunshine State has earned offers from the likes of the Ole Miss Rebels, Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Florida Gators, Arkansas Razorbacks, Florida State Seminoles, and Auburn Tigers, among several others, amid his meteoric rise this offseason.

But Crumity is beginning to identify contenders in his recruitment with the Ole Miss Rebels locking in a visit after the talented defender received an offer from Golding and Co. last week.

Ole Miss is gearing up for a significant weekend on the recruiting trail with programs galore preparing to make their way to campus as the Rebels eye top prospects this offseason.

The Recent Visitor: 2028 Cycle Edition

Owasso (Okla.) Rejoice Christian School four-star athlete Kamieon Compton-Nero made his way over to Oxford this past weekend for an unofficial visit with Golding and Co. as the Ole Miss program turns up the heat.

Compton-Nero is surging on the prep scene where he now checks in as the No. 1 rated athlete in the 2028 Recruiting Cycle amid a meteoric rise.

During his sophomore season in 2025, Compton-Nero gained 3,335 total yards of offense and finished with 49 total touchdowns as a quarterback for his prep squad where his program won its second consecutive Oklahoma A-I state championship.

The 6-foot-3, 175-pounder threw for 2,584 yards and 38 touchdowns - while adding 751 yards and 8 touchdowns on the ground.

"Dynamic two-way playmaker as a high school quarterback and back-seven defender. "Likely projects best as a personnel-flexible safety. Monster production on both sides of the ball in 2025," 247Sports wrote of Compton-Nero.

Ole Miss remains a contender for the two-way star as the Rebels make a sizable push for the dynamic prospect out of Oklahoma.
