Ole Miss added another offensive lineman to its 2019 recruiting class Thursday.

North Forsyth (Georgia) High tackle Jeremy James gave his verbal pledge to the Rebels, announcing his commitment with a post to his Twitter account. James, who committed to Ole Miss over offers from Florida, Miami and Louisville among others, is the second commit in as many days for the Rebels after Warren Easton (New Orleans) guard/tackle Caleb Etienne joined the class Wednesday.

Of Ole Miss’ 21 commitments, seven are offensive linemen. All but one of them have committed within the last two weeks.

Ole Miss’ class is ranked 14th nationally and seventh in the SEC in the 247Sports composite.
