    Coming off his second official visit to Ole Miss, class of 2022 four-star center Felix Okpara is getting ready for Peach Jam later this month.

    Okpara, the 6-foot-11, 210-pound center from Hamilton Heights (TN) Christian Academy, was on Ole Miss’ campus from June 27-29.

    “It was good,” Okpara said. “I love the fact that the head coach [Kermit Davis] was very involved in the visit.”

    Ranked by 247Sports.com as the No. 9 center and No. 47 overall prospect in the class of 2022, Okpara says he fits the Rebels’ play style on offense and defense.

    With the NCAA’s interim name, image and likeness rules coming into effect on Thursday, Ole Miss also pitched their reputation to Okpara.

    “It’s going to be great cause Ole Miss is in a small town and everyone is going to know who you are,” he said.

    Okpara took his first official visit to Ohio State from June 17-19.

    He says he doesn’t want to take any other visits this summer,

    Okpara is a good shot blocker that can guard multiple positions. He plays aggressively and can shoot the mid-range with consistency.
