Corey Barber loves Ole Miss. The playmaker out of Pinson (Ala.) Clay-Chalkville committed to the Rebels in May, but after the coaching change in Oxford, he is going to take a step back in his recruitment.
“I am going to back off my commitment to Ole Miss,” Barber told Rivals. “I have some great relationships there, it is a scheme I liked a lot, and now I have to consider my options.”

“I have been talking with Coach McDonald today. He is a great guy and we have a great relationship. LSU is now a school I have to consider.”
Barber said Alabama and Washington were other schools on his radar. The four-star is focused on playing for state championship later this week, but before then, he plans to put pen to paper and sign with a school.
“I am still signing on Wednesday,” Barber said. “There is a lot to think about, and a lot has happened, but I still plan to sign on Signing Day.”
