Ole Miss' newest wideout Deion Smith will certainly be noticed around Oxford -- and by the looks of it, for far more than just his play.
Smith, rated the No. 1 JUCO player in the country per 247 Sports Composite rankings, showed up to his signing event Wednesday in Jackson, Mississippi in a Lamborghini, as captured by local journalist, Cameron Smith.
Smith chose to play for head coach Lane Kiffin and the Rebels over the likes of Auburn, Utah and Mississippi State -- among others -- after a terrific JUCO season.
The former LSU receiver attended Holmes Community College in Goodman, Mississippi in 2022 after academic results affected his ability to play Division I football, per the Mississippi Clarion Ledger.
While at Holmes, Smith had a spectacular season; averaging 22.1 yards per catch on 48 catches for 1,063 yards and 12 touchdowns.
According to 247 Sports, Ole Miss is No. 2 in the nation for transfer rankings with five 4-star and 3-star commitments, respectively. Only Colorado has more 4-star transfer recruits (6).
