Talented DT London Simmons at Arkansas, will return for OV
FAYETTEVILLE — Flowood (Miss.) Hartfield Academy Class of 2025 three-star defensive tackle London Simmons was at Arkansas on Wednesday with his teammates for a 7-on-7 tournament and then he will return soon for an official visit.
Simmons, 6-3, 300, has an official visit set to Arkansas on June 21-23 along with his teammate defensive lineman Reginald Vaughn. Simmons has a long list of offers including one from the Hogs. Simmons talked about why he was at Arkansas on Wednesday.
“I’m just here to support my teammates and maybe get a little tight end work done,” Simmons said. “Just here to support my teammates and cheer them on.”
While at the 7-on-7, Simmons said he’s excited to get back in 10 days for an extended look at Arkansas.
“Yes sir, I’m definitely looking forward to it,” Simmons said. “I love the coaches here. It’s like a family environment That’s what I’m usually from. I love like family environment coaches.”
Simmons got a chance to get a early look at some of the facilities and he was impressed.
“Me just being here and the weight room is just like right up here,” Simmons said. “You have a view down on the field. It’s amazing.”
When it comes time for Simmons to pick a school he has a few particular things he’s looking for. He feels Arkansas checks plenty off of that list and he will know much more after his next visit.
“Yes sir, this is my first time visiting here so I have to see it some more,” Simmons said. “Just go around and see the campus more and talk on my official visit.”
Simmons said he likes Alabama, Florida State and more in addition to Arkansas. All three of those schools plus LSU and others have offered this talented lineman. If Simmons attends Arkansas he would play for Deke Adams.
“Coach Adams and Coach (Sam) Pittman are amazing,” Simmons said. “They are good guys to talk to. They are around like a family environment.”
As a junior, Simmons finished with 80 tackles, 25 tackles for loss, 15 sacks and three forced fumbles.

Today’s Locked On Ole Miss Podcast discusses why Lane Kiffin and the Ole Miss Rebels will beat the Arkansas Razorbacks in Saturday’s matchup. This will be the next opportunity to play clean football, and I think they will put it together against the Hogs and Sam Pittman and cut down on the penalties that have been allowing teams to stay in the game.
This matchup is absolutely massive for the Rebels because of what it means in the season as a whole, and Taylen Green against the Ole Miss defense will draw everyone’s eye. People look at the Arkansas stats and assume this is a typical Bobby Petrino team, and that isn’t quite right. John Nabors of Locked On Razorbacks said that if Ole Miss goes up by 14, it is over because this team is not a play-from-behind team.
In our final segment of the day, we give our final thoughts on Ole Miss vs. Arkansas and talk about expectations for Saturday and why everything points to an Ole Miss win, but Ole Miss fans before a trip to Fayetteville have seen this movie before.

The No. 19 Ole Miss Rebels have a big test on Saturday when they travel to face the Arkansas Razorbacks in Fayetteville, and we now know what uniform combination coach Lane Kiffin’s team will feature on the field.
For the first time in two years, the Rebels will not be wearing a different uniform combination in each of its regular season games. Ole Miss is reusing the uniform it wore earlier in the year at South Carolina, opting to don powder blue helmets, white jerseys with powder blue accents and white pants.
You can view the uniform reveal below, complete with modeling from edge rusher Princely Umanmielen.

Since this is the first year the Rebels have ever used this jersey, they are technically undefeated all-time in this uniform combination after knocking off South Carolina 27-3 in Columbia earlier this year. They hope that good luck follows them to Fayetteville this weekend, a place they have not won since 2008.
The last time Ole Miss reused a uniform combination during the regular season came in 2021, but the last time they did it in a campaign including the postseason was in 2022 when they repeated a uniform in the Texas Bowl against Texas Tech. Assuming this is the Rebels’ only road jersey in this year’s rotation, we should also see a repeat when Ole Miss travels to face Florida later in November.
Kickoff on Saturday between Ole Miss and Arkansas is scheduled for 11 a.m. CT, and the game will be televised on ESPN.
