Netflix’s ‘SEC Football: Any Given Saturday’ is now streaming, with almost all of the SEC schools being featured, all except six. One of those six is Ole Miss, which barred cameras from taking a behind-the-scenes peek at how the team operated. This meant that fans were not able to see Rebels stars like Cayden Lee be their true selves during practice.
In an interview with Paul Finebaum on ESPN, the Ole Miss wide receiver talked about his school not being featured on the Netflix documentary because his coach did not allow Netflix to film.
“I feel like it would been really cool to be in a TV show. Uh you know, I’ll tell him about it later. It’s all good. But, you know, it would have been exciting to be in the TV show, but let’s just stay focused and let’s just get ready for this season. That that’s what we’re focused on right now,” he said. (4:25)

The analyst then noted that he is marveling at Kiffin, especially during the SEC Media Days. He also praised the Ole Miss coach for what he has done with the team so far.
Texas, Georgia, Alabama, Ole Miss, Missouri and Oklahoma are the six schools that refused to allow Netflix to film them as they got ready for the 2024 season. The reasons for why these schools turned down being featured in the documentary have not been stated.
