Ole Miss is usually known for football, but their mens basketball squad got a couple of quality front-court recruits yesterday.<\/p>\n
First, Blytheville (Ark.) four-star center Rashaud Marshall announced his commitment to Ole Miss – for the third time. Marshall (6-foot-9, 215 pounds) is billed as an old-school powerful low-post big.<\/p>\n
\nThis could be an interesting re-heat in the 2023 recruiting cycle.<\/p>\n
Rashaud Marshall is a throw back big. A low post presence who pairs his unquestioned toughness & brute strength with some footwork & touch.<\/p>\n
