Gregory LaMar Little (born November 4, 1997) is an American football offensive lineman. He currently attends the University of Mississippi in his sophomore year.

High school career

A native of Allen, Texas, Little attended the Allen High School, where he was a three-year starter on the offensive line. Blocking for quarterback Kyler Murray, Little helped Allen to back-to-back 16–0 seasons and 6A Division 1 UIL state championships in 2013 and 2014. In Little's senior season, Allen went undefeated again until they were upset by Sam Ehlinger's Austin Westlake team in the state championship semifinals.[1]

Regarded as a five-star recruit, Little was ranked as the No. 2 prospect overall, behind Rashan Gary, in the class of 2016 by ESPN.[2] After his junior season, Little verbally committed to Texas A&M, who had signed Allen quarterback Kyler Murray. Few days later, he decommitted from the Aggies.[3] Little eventually chose Ole Miss over scholarship offers from Alabama, Auburn, Texas A&M, Louisiana State, and others.

College career

In his true freshman year at Ole Miss, Little played in every game with five starts at left tackle, where he replaced Laremy Tunsil.[4]
