Ole Miss star running back Kewan Lacy reached agreement to return to the program next season, according to On3.
Lacy has 1,464 rushing yards — which ranks third in the nation — and 23 touchdowns so far this season with the Rebels. He had two touchdowns in last week’s win over Georgia in the Sugar Bowl, helping push the Rebels into the College Football Playoff semifinals.

Lacy has scored a touchdown in all but one game this season. His 23 TDs lead the SEC.
Lacy’s commitment comes the same day Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss also agreed to return, provided he is granted another season of eligibility.
The Rebels will face Miami in the Fiesta Bowl on Thursday for a chance to reach the national championship game.
