3-star IOL Joseph Cryer commits to Ole Miss
Many (La.) Natchitoches Central three-star interior offensive lineman Joseph Cryer has committed to Ole Miss. He announced the news on Twitter
The 6-foot-4, 290-pounder is the No. 987 overall prospect and No. 81 interior offensive lineman in the 2024 cycle, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is also the No. 32 player in Louisiana.
Cyer is currently on campus at Oxford for his official visit. It’s his third visit to campus as he was also on campus April 4 and April 29.
In late March Cryer landed an offer from Ole Miss after talking with first-year Ole Miss offensive line coach John Garrison.
“I like Ole Miss,” Cryer told On3 following the offer. “One big reason is because my cousin (Justin Cryer) played baseball there. I love the atmosphere of the fans and just how the team does things around there.
“The communication has been amazing. I have talked a lot with coach Garrison and (Ole Miss assistant offensive line coach) Hunter MacKay I’ve heard a lot from coach Kiffin. Just been building a good relationship with them.”

Cryer currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $18.7K. The On3 NIL Valuation is the industry’s leading index that sets high school and college athletes’ projected annual value (PAV). The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.
