Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney accused Ole Miss’ coaching staff of tampering, claiming their actions influenced linebacker Luke Ferrelli to flip his commitment from the Tigers to the Rebels.
Ferrelli, who played at Cal in 2025, initially committed to Clemson on Jan. 6. However, he re-entered the transfer portal on Jan. 16 – the last day for non-national championship players to enter – before committing to Ole Miss six days later.
On Friday, Swinney outlined what he described as deliberate tampering by Ole Miss to lure Ferrelli to the Rebels.
