5/25/2024 | Football

OXFORD, Miss. – Lane Kiffin has coached some of the best running backs in college football history, and his RB room will once again be laden with talent in 2024.
 
Pro Football Focus tabbed Ulysses Bentley IV as the No. 1 returning running back in the Southeastern Conference with a grade of 87.4, one of three players on the list with the Ole Miss logo next to their name.
   
Bentley has been electric in two seasons for the Rebels, notching nine total touchdowns and just shy of 1,000 all-purpose yards since transferring from SMU in 2022.
 
Bentley announced his decision to return shortly after the Peach Bowl victory, and will be one of several key returners on the Rebel offense this season.
