In a significant development for the recruiting scene, the Ole Miss Rebels have extended a scholarship offer to Jamarion Mathews, a promising edge rusher from Sparkman High School in Harvest, Alabama. The 6-foot-2, 240-pound athlete received this offer on Friday, marking his first from an SEC school.
Mathews, who is part of the 2026 recruiting class, has already garnered interest from several notable programs. His offer sheet currently includes Louisville, Penn State, Liberty, North Alabama, Samford, and Alabama A&M. The offer from Ole Miss highlights his emerging status as a top recruit in his class.
“I’m very excited,” Mathews told Inside the Rebels. “This is one of the top three colleges that I’ve wanted.”
Mathews’ impressive potential has caught the attention of numerous scouts and coaches, and Ole Miss’s offer only reinforces his growing prominence in the recruiting landscape. As he continues to develop his skills and showcase his abilities, it’s likely that more programs will compete for his commitment. The attention from an SEC school like Ole Miss underscores Mathews’ status as a standout player and suggests that his recruitment will be closely watched as he progresses through high school.
