Heard what Hal Mumme had to say at his presser today on the SEC. He said the key to SEC teams are the defensive ends and cornerbacks. Smaller schools rely on one athletic safety to make the plays.

Thoughts? Does Ole Miss have the DE's and corners to catch the top of the SEC?

DE's...for the next two years...absolutely.

CB's...maybe. Hilton was an animal this season and Jones looked real nice.

The starters are probably good enough. The depth, not so much, especially at the CB.

When he was first hired, Hugh Freeze said that he felt the keys to success in football were to have a good DL and a good quarterback (then he said something really Hugh Freeze-ish about having a good attitude).

That more sounds like a quote from Hal Mumme's buddy Joe Lee Dunn.

I am not sure what would make anything coming out of Mumme insightful though considering it didn't pan out well in the SEC and has been steadily dropping divisions. Isn't he D3 now?

Groundbreaking.

I may be a little biased against Mumme though. I'm not even mad about him cheating at Kentucky. I'm just mad he was too dumb to get away with it.
