Mills-Knight is in a dynamic backfield duo featuring young Canadian David Gabriel Georges at the Baylor School, who has yet to lose a game this year because of the effectiveness of their ground attack. Mille-Knight is a really physical back at 210 pounds and shows real quality burst for a player of his size. Sporting a plethora of major offers, including several in the SEC, Mills-Knight lands with Lane Kiffin’s powered Ole Miss offense. Mills-Knight is the only RB commit for the Rebels – a key indicator of their confidence in him as an addition to their RB room.
