4-Star Ben'jarvius Shumaker Flips Twice in 24 Hours, Recommits to Ole Miss

Summary
Less than 24 hours after saying he had shut down his recruitment, four-star defensive tackle Ben'jarvius Shumaker flipped from Ole Miss to Colorado and then back to Ole Miss on Tuesday.
Shumaker, a composite top-100 prospect and Mississippi's No. 2 player, had originally committed to the Rebels in March and publicly reaffirmed that pledge on Monday before the rapid reversals.
Ole Miss still ends the day with a key 2027 commit, but Shumaker issued a statement to contain fallout after the back-and-forth drew immediate scrutiny online.
The episode underscores how unstable college football recruiting has become, with programs effectively forced to keep re-recruiting even blue-chip commits until signing day.
