After a promising freshman season, where he made an impact in games like the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl, Lee has expressed his desire to continue developing under Ole Miss’ system. He believes his time to shine is approaching and values the mentorship from veteran teammates like Tre Harris and Jordan Watkins.
In an era where transfer movements are common, Lee’s decision is seen as a strong statement of loyalty and confidence in Ole Miss’ direction. With other wide receivers like Ayden Williams and Juice Wells in the mix, Lee’s versatility as both a slot and outside receiver makes him a critical piece for the Rebels in 2024.
