Ole Miss baseball lands star Louisville OF Isaac Humphrey out of transfer portal

OXFORD ― After a week full of bad transfer portal news, Ole Miss baseball bounced back with a big commitment on Monday.

Louisville outfielder Isaac Humphrey announced he has transferred to Ole Miss on social media.

The 6-foot-3, 210-pound lefthander posted a .310 average and .977 OPS to go with 10 home runs last season in the ACC. Humphrey has hit for average throughout his collegiate career, but paired that with real power for the first time last season, when 25 of his 57 hits went for extra bases.

Humphrey can run a little bit, too. He's got 26 stolen bases in 166 career games.

He's the third outfield reinforcement for Mike Bianco and the Rebels, joining Illinois' Ryan Moerman and New Orleans' Mitchell Sanford ‒ the Southland Conference's Hitter of the Year in 2024.
