Ole Miss joins chase for Omaha small forward Frankie Fidler
On3’s Joe Tipton reported Tuesday Ole Miss and head coach Chris Beard have contacted Omaha small forward Frankie Fidler. The Rebels are joined by Alabama, Indiana, Nebraska, Georgetown and Arizona State, per Tipton. Last season, Fidler averaged 20.1 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 2.6 assists per game.
The list is sure to grow as Fidler is one of the most productive and explosive scorers in the country. His frame allows him to play one-through-four on the floor. The 6-foot-7, 217 pound prospect started every game for Omaha in 2023-2024, leading the team in nearly every category.
Fidler was tops in minutes (33.5), field goals made (152), free throw percentage (.887), points (469) points per game (14.7), total rebounds (185), rebounds per game (5.8) and steals 39. Furthermore, he was second on the team in blocks (17) and assists (86).
Frankie Fidler has been as consistent as anyone in the country during his college career.
Through three seasons, he has averaged 16.1 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists and has shot 45 percent from the field. From deep, he has been lethal throughout his time in Nebraska, shooting 35 percent. After his record-breaking campaign this season, he became the third Maverick in history to be named to the NABC All-District Team.
