Former 3-star Arkansas commit flips his pledge to Ole Miss
Ole Miss has flipped a three-star defensive end that was previously committed to Arkansas.
On Monday morning, Ryder Anderson out of Katy, TX announced his decision to break his pledge with the Hogs and plans on heading to Oxford next season instead. Anderson made these comments via Twitter:
“I am now committed to attend and play football at the University of Mississippi. I truly believe that this is where God has guided me and I am thankful and excited! #HottyToddy”

Anderson (6-foot-7, 230 pounds) is the No. 75 player at his position from the 2017 recruiting class, according to 247Sports. He committed to Arkansas back in June, but received an offer from Ole Miss on Nov. 17. The timing of Anderson’s commitment is interesting, as Ole Miss does not have a defensive coordinator after the school announced Dave Wommack would retire at the conclusion of the season.
Ryder is the younger brother of Oklahoma sophomore running back Rodney Anderson.
Rebels coach Hugh Freeze now has 11 commits for his 2017 class — all whom serve as three-star prospects.
Insert witty “Ole Mi$$” comment here.
I wonder if the God that told him to commit to Ole Miss is the same God that told Ben Carson, Ted Cruz, Mike Huckabee, et al; to run for president? If so that God is an incredible prankster.
From someone from the trashiest team in the Country. Cover them rapes up Butch
So lame when players put GOD into it…..just guessing but I’m pretty sure the man upstairs has more r things to worry about than where they go to play college football…..jackasses
What makes you think that? If He is God then He should be able to handle all things at once considering He would be an all-knowing, all-powerful being.
^^^This is what people don’t understand when they say things about God not caring about sports or whatever. It’s not about the sport, it’s about the people playing the sports.
Loading up on those 3* players. Gonna kick Bama’s ass with them
Sad to see him go but if he really thinks it’s what he needs to do, then best of luck to him at Ole Miss.
Well – hate to see him flip, but if he doesn’t want to be a Razorback, then we don’t need him. Good luck to him at OM (except when they play the Hogs) and wish him well.
