Report: Ole Miss releases signee after burglary charges
Tae-Kion Reed, a 3-star defensive lineman who committed to Ole Miss on National Signing Day, made waves when he threw a Mississippi State hat across the room while picking the Rebels.
On Thursday, Reed made waves for another reason, as his arrest for burglary earlier this week cost him his spot with Hugh Freeze’s squad:
