4-star RB Henry Parrish commits to Ole Miss over Florida and Oregon

It didn’t take long for Lane Kiffin and his staff’s Florida connections to pay off as new running backs coach Kevin Smith has reeled in his first playmaker at running back.

Four-star Henry Parrish, who was previously committed to Pittsburgh, has verbally committed to the Rebels over notable offers from Florida, Florida State, Iowa, Miami, Michigan, Oregon, Penn State, Tennessee, and Utah.

The nation’s 155th overall player seemed to be considering staying close to home as Greg Knox and the Gators were seemingly making him a priority, but Kiffin and Smith cashed in on their relationship that was developed after being Parrish’s first offer while at FAU.
