Evans' Comments on Flannigan
"Jason comes to Ole Miss from a great high school program. He has been extremely well coached by his dad. We had to beat out some top schools to get him. Jason is an outstanding athlete. He is a very tough, hard-nosed player who also excels on the defensive end. We expect him to add a new dimension to our team with his speed and quickness."
