Riley Blevins, and Courtney Cronin

Fred Walls was taken aback when he spoke with Ole Miss coaches on Monday.

The Olive Branch standout linebacker was informed he no longer had an offer from the Rebels.

"It kind of took my by surprise," Walls told The Clarion-Ledger on Tuesday.

The three-star linebacker had been committed to Ole Miss since last December.

Ole Miss now has 14 players committed in its 2015 class.

The Rebels accepted a commitment from unranked junior college linebacker Terry Caldwell on Tuesday, the second linebacker in their class with Dandy Dozen selection Leo Lewis.

Walls says Ole Miss offered him a grayshirt, which means he would have to wait until the second semester of his freshman year to enroll.

"I feel like I could step in somewhere and make a difference," Walls said when asked why he turned down the grayshirt deal. "... I just hope to (now) prove myself and how good I am."

Walls says he's not sure of his next move.

247Sports.com lists Ole Miss as his lone Division-I offer.

""(I just want to) look at some more schools to see if I would be a fit," he said. "I'd like an offer from all SEC schools. I don't really have one on my mind."
