For the second consecutive year, a quarterback will not be representing Ole Miss during this year’s media days. Instead, senior defensive end Cedric Johnson, sophomore running back Quinshon Judkins, senior defensive back Deantre Prince, and head coach Lane Kiffin will be speaking Thursday morning at 9:05 a.m.
Last season, Johnson compiled 32 tackles and four sacks. Judkins, in his first season in Oxford, amassed 1,567 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns on the way to being named Freshman All-American. Prince compiled 39 tackles and one interception.
