The 6-foot-4, 295-pound Reed was rated as a three-star prospect and Mississippi’s No. 29 overall prospect, according to 247Sports. The big defensive lineman decommitted from Mississippi State just before signing day and is most known for his National Signing Day video where he threw an MSU hat and put on an Ole Miss cap.
