OXFORD — Ole Miss football coach Lane Kiffin has added another weapon from the transfer portal to his offense next season.
Former Penn State wide receiver Harrison Wallace is transferring to Ole Miss. He announced the move in a social media post Sunday. Wallace was Penn State’s top statistical wide receiver this season in his redshirt junior year. Wallace caught 46 passes for 720 yards in 2024. He also had four touchdowns.
The 6-foot-1, 194-pound receiver was a former four-star prospect in the 2021 recruiting class. Wallace committed to Penn State out of Montgomery, Alabama.
Wallace was the No. 54-ranked player in the transfer portal, according to 247Sports. He is the No. 16 receiver.
Kiffin and the Rebels’ coaching staff have racked up another strong transfer portal recruiting class.
It is the No. 2-ranked portal class behind LSU. Wallace will join transfers Deuce Alexander (Wake Forest), De’Zhaun Stribling (Oklahoma State), and Caleb Odom (Alabama) as receivers coming to Oxford.
