Ole Miss football continues to add to a transfer class currently ranked No. 2 in the country by On3. 

The Rebels addressed their need for a back-up quarterback behind Austin Simmons with Louisville dual-threat Pierce Clarkson. They beefed up their secondary with Washington State cornerback Kapena Gushiken on Tuesday. 

But the work is constantly ongoing. 

Ole Miss is a finalist for Washington cornerback Thaddeus Dixon, the portal’s No. 2 available player. He’s already visited North Carolina and Ole Miss and is expected at Michigan on Sunday. The three-day FBS dead period is set to end on Thursday.

“Brandon Cisse commits to South Carolina (Monday) night,” Berry said. “Sometimes recruiting — even portal recruiting — is not very hard to figure out. Ole Miss really liked Cisse and Thaddeus Dixon. Lane Kiffin went to Sumter, South Carolina, last week to see Brandon Cisse. Ole Miss was in a fight and he opted to stay close to home. Could mean Ole Miss potentially flips some attention to Thaddeus Dixon. I think all signs points to Thaddeus Dixon for Ole Miss.”

Dixon is a former JUCO product. He spent the last two seasons at Washington, including the national championship run in 2023. 

Dixon played in 26 total games with the Huskies and recorded 66 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss, two interceptions, 18 pass break-ups and a forced fumble. His 81.8 PFF coverage rating was fourth in the Big Ten among corners with 100-plus snaps.

Dixon was targeted a team-high 51 times. He allowed just 23 receptions for 237 yards and two touchdowns.
