Ole Miss offensive coordinator Phil Longo hit the motherload back in December when he flipped four-star quarterback Matt Corral from Florida and signed him during the early signing period. He was no doubt a key cog in the Rebels being able to land two more blue-chip receivers in Miles Battle and Elijah Moore, and he was also an active recruiter on campus during CROOTAPALOOZA.

But Phil not only struck gold when he found his quarterback of the future, but it was the baggage that Corral brought with him to Oxford. And it’s the good kind, trust me. The 6’2, 202-pounder is not only bringing a cannon for an arm and the most swagger we’ve seen since CK10 was under center, but he is pals with Poison front man Bret Michaels due to the fact that he dates his daughter, Raine.
