Ole Miss has started 3, 4, 3, 4, 3, 4, 4, 3, 3, 2, 4, 3, 4, 6, 1, 5 and 8 whites. Last year got as high as 9 when John Rhys Plumlee moved into a starting WR role. This year is 6, but I caution that the recent high number of starters for Ole Miss is the product of a white OL with very limited depth. In a year or two, Ole Miss will be back to the 3ish starter total, especially with how the recruiting classes look.
USC transfer Jaxson Dart is the main story here. He technically has not won the starting battle but I bet he will. Unfortunately, TE Michael Trigg came along with Dart and will probably take ove Casey Kelly (brother of Chad)'s starting role.
After Chance Campbell grad transferred to Ole Miss and became the ultra rare white defensive starter last year, he was drafted by the Titans. Now the defense is barren. Although there is a walk-on named John Porchivina, a 2014 high school grad who had 2,332 rushing yards in two years in HS and was a three star recruit and former Cal commit. He left Cal to join the military and now returns to Ole Miss as a soon-to-be 28 year old. Hope he sees the field.
