Danny O’Brien checking out Ole Miss

According to tweets from Ole Miss beat writer Yancy Porter of OMSpirit.com (Ole Miss’ Scout.com affiliate) and CBS’ Bruce Feldman, O’Brien is set to visit the Rebels on Tuesday. Former Terps tackle Max Garcia will also be on that visit.
O’Brien was the ACC’s Rookie of the Year in 2010 under old head coach Ralph Friedgen, but was benched midway through last season after an inconsistent start. Still, O’Brien was productive enough early on in his career that he’s still one of the most sought after transfers this offseason, and the Rebels got zero production out of the quarterback spot last season.

Of course, Ole Miss was bad in general on offense and adding O’Brien could give the Rebs a boost. As a plus, O’Brien still has two years of eligibility left even though he’s on track to get his undergraduate degree this spring.
