Ole Miss Snags Elite 4-Star CB Jontavius Wyman Over Top SEC Competition.
Ole Miss has landed a major recruiting victory with the commitment of elite four-star cornerback Jontavius Wyman, one of the most sought-after defensive backs in the 2025 class. Wyman, who had offers from powerhouse programs like Alabama, Georgia, and LSU, ultimately chose the Rebels, adding another blue-chip prospect to Lane Kiffin’s rising defense.
The 6-foot-1, 185-pound Wyman is known for his elite speed, physicality, and ball-hawking instincts. Playing at [Insert High School], he emerged as one of the nation’s top defensive backs, earning a reputation for locking down receivers and making game-changing plays. His combination of length and agility makes him a perfect fit for defensive coordinator Pete Golding’s aggressive scheme.
Wyman’s decision is a massive win for Ole Miss, as the Rebels continue to make waves on the recruiting trail. Beating out SEC rivals for a top-tier defensive talent signals the program’s growing appeal and competitiveness. His commitment strengthens an already impressive 2025 recruiting class, giving the Rebels a potential day-one impact player in the secondary.
“I felt like Ole Miss was the right place for me,” Wyman said. “Coach Kiffin and Coach Golding showed me how I’d fit into their defense, and I believe I can make a difference right away.”
With Wyman on board, Ole Miss continues its push to build a defense capable of competing with the SEC’s best. His commitment adds another layer of excitement to a program looking to take the next step in the conference hierarchy.
