Ok. He threw for 2994+ yards in 3 consecutive seasons. Not even Eli did that.

Considering what Hugh Freeze and Bo Wallace inherited when Nutt left, we owe them both our respect and good will. The average person, much less Ole Miss fan, have NO idea how bad things were when they came on board.

I never heard Bo Wallace blame ANYBODY or ANYTHING for losses. It made him just worked harder. He showed class and courage when doubters were all around. He committed himself to winning, and did a damn good job at Ole Miss.

Are we going to miss him next year? In one word...absodamnlutely!
Will others play and succeed at Ole Miss?...see one word above.

Will Bo Wallace be forgotten? Not by me and hundreds of other Ole Miss fans who are able to see beyond the win lose columns to realize how far this program has come since Freeze and Wallace came on board.

It is unfortunate that so much of the whining and bitching and moaning is so public now. Everybody has something to say. So much to say so little to be contributed.

Bo Wallace is a class act, and I wish him every success. Thanks, Bo, for showing us how to be a winner in football and life!

You're the only person I have ever seen asserting that Bo Wallace was good at life

Bo Wallace was a try-hard, wannabe. Good luck to him after his 5-6 years of 50k a season arena career is up and he has to rely on his general studies degree. I'm sure the fact that he's a "winner" will get him extremely far in his post-football endeavors

ETA: If Freeze were to eventually add him to the staff, I'd just laugh my dick off

Numerically, he is the best QB you've ever had. Don't piss on a good thing, the chances of another QB equalling his productivity more than once in a decade or so are slim. You should be thankful for it, without him you would probably be hunting a coach again instead of being very happy with your current one. Not that Freeze isn't a good coach. I'm just saying that there was no QB to play other than Bo, and you can't win games without a QB.

He was a damn good player and a lot of you shits don't give him the credit you should.

This pretty much says all you need to know.

Skirp is right. I don't see how any of you assholes can act like Bo hindered this program.

Sounds to me as if you're a wannabe who needs to try harder.

I noticed that quite early on. The guy wasn't a pretty boy who was skiddish about getting hit. He didn't mind getting dirty. Not one bit. Dak, no disrespect to his ability, didn't play as well once he got stuck a few times.

I think Jevan Snead had more potential than Bo. If Freeze could have had Snead....I believe the guy would be playing in the NFL. Nutt ruined his arse

Jevan Snead was John Elway with a bigger arm and quicker release

I don't think most are disrespecting Bo Wallace, I only seen a few who openly remarked that he was trash in their opinion of him.

Most including myself have only pointed out the obvious flaws in his game.

All heroes must have their flaws and work to overcome them before they can become our hero.

Bo will be remembered as the QB who put it on the line and stepped up to play in big games. Whether or not the supporting cast was up for it or not. Bo competed and gave maximum effort when he stepped on the field. The issue were his flaws as a player. He wasn't perfect, he never made excuses.

Anyone who questions his heart, should get curb stomped. If all Ole Miss players put it on the line like Bo and Quon did every play, maybe we win a couple of more games.

Losing is not failure, lack of effort is failure.

The 2012 team will always be a favorite because they played their hearts out to win. I expect nothing more or less from any Ole Miss Rebel team.

Lack of effort was not one of Bo Wallace's flaws.
