Luke Ferrelli Commits to Ole Miss After Re-Entering Transfer Portal

The ACC Defensive Freshman of the Year chose the Rebels days after signing with Clemson.

Overview

  • Ferrelli re-entered the NCAA transfer portal on Jan. 22 and has now committed to transfer to Ole Miss, according to On3 reporting relayed by Yahoo Sports.
  • He had committed to Clemson on Jan. 6 and signed on Jan. 7, removing him from the Tigers’ incoming transfer class once he returned to the portal.
  • The Cal linebacker recorded 91 tackles across 13 games in 2025, earning ACC Defensive Freshman of the Year and All-ACC honorable mention.
  • His post–Jan. 16 portal activity is allowable under NCAA rules when an athlete notifies their school before the deadline and administrative processing delays the entry.
  • Fans have urged a tampering review involving Ole Miss, but those claims are unverified and no formal investigation has been reported.
