On Tuesday morning, Ackerman (Miss.) Choctaw County four-star defensive lineman Ben’Jarvius Shumaker flipped his commitment from Ole Miss to Colorado.
The move came as a surprise, as on Monday, Shumaker announced that his recruitment was shut down and that he was locked in with the Rebels.
Now, the blue-chipper is saying he’s back with Ole Miss. He released a statement on Tuesday evening to announce that he’s re-locking in with Pete Golding and the Rebels.
“First and foremost, I want to thank God, my family, and every coach and program that has invested time, energy, and belief in me throughout this recruiting process. The relationships I have built and the opportunities I have been given are something I will never take for granted. After careful thought, prayer, and conversations with my family, I have decided to remain committed to Ole Miss and officially shut down my recruitment,” Shumaker wrote on X.
“I apologize for any confusion that may have come over the last several hours. This process has reaffirmed for me that Ole Miss is where I am meant to be. I believe in the vision for the program, the relationships my family and I have built in Oxford, and the opportunity to develop both on and off the field. Thank you to everyone who has supported me throughout this journey. I am excited for the future, ready to get to work, and proud to call the state of Mississippi and Ole Miss home.”
Shumaker is the No. 76 overall prospect and No. 7 DL in the 2027 cycle, according to the Rivals Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all major recruiting media companies. He’s also the No. 3 recruit in Mississippi.
