Safety Deontay Anderson transfers from Ole Miss to Houston

HOUSTON -- Former Ole Miss safety Deontay Anderson has transferred to Houston, the school confirmed on Thursday.

Anderson, who was the No. 1 safety in the 2016 recruiting class, spent his first two years at Ole Miss. He was the No. 41 overall prospect in the 2016 ESPN 300 and was an Under Armour All-American. He's a product of Manvel (Texas) High, which is just south of Houston.

When he committed to Ole Miss, Anderson starred in one of the most unique commitment videos, featuring Anderson skydiving before announcing he was signing with the Rebels.
