Ole Miss RB Logan Diggs sends a message to his doubters while recovering from injury

There aren't many, if any at all, running back rooms in the country that can match the talent and depth of the group at Ole Miss.

Ulysses Bentley IV leads the way for the Rebels joined by Henry Parrish Jr., who returns to Oxford after two seasons at Miami, along with LSU transfer Logan Diggs. Bentley and Parrish will carry the load to begin the season but Diggs, who is working his way back from a torn ACL last season, will see a steady diet of touches when he returns to full strength.

Logan Diggs is having another great game.

Diggs suffered the injury in LSU's bowl game against Wisconsin, so it's unlikely that he will be available to start the season.

Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin commented on Diggs' recovery in March: "How fast? I don't know," Kiffin said. "That will be a lot to do with how fast he comes back, obviously. But that can be anywhere from the beginning to the end of the season. That can be a blessing, too. When somebody comes back from an injury and it's later in the season, they got fresh legs. Sometimes, it can be a really good thing. So we'll see."

Diggs has now chimed in on the matter sending a message to his doubters through a post to his X profile on Friday.

Some may forget but I’m great at reminding… I’ll be back soon #TG

If there is one adjective to describe the 2024 Ole Miss squad it's hungry. The Rebels have been knocking on the door in the SEC since Kiffin arrived ahead of the 2020 season.

The culture Kiffin has curated is clearly bleeding through to the newcomers as seen in Diggs' post. Diggs accumulated 653 rushing yards and seven touchdowns for the Tigers last season and will be a welcomed addition whenever he makes his way back to the field.
