LSU Lands Ole Miss Freshman OL Devin Harper in Portal Move

Lane Kiffin’s move to LSU has accelerated Ole Miss departures during the 15‑day transfer window.

Lane Kiffin speaks at a press conference as he is introduced as the new head football coach of the LSU Tigers at Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Overview

  • Devin Harper committed to LSU on Jan. 16 after one season at Ole Miss, choosing to transfer before the portal window closed.
  • The Louisiana native was a consensus four-star interior lineman in the 2025 class and had previously been committed to LSU during his recruitment.
  • Harper played limited snaps as a true freshman, appearing in six games with strong pass‑blocking grades noted in limited action.
  • Yahoo Sports reports Ole Miss had expected him back for 2026, and he is projected to have roughly three years of eligibility at LSU.
  • Harper joins former Ole Miss wide receiver Winston Watkins Jr. at LSU, and the Tigers also added Baylor offensive tackle Sean Thompkins on the same day.
