For Ole Miss (if the NCAA allows the university to field a football team), Swag could have a lot of fun despite losing Treadwell. Adeboyejo, Stringfellow, and Engram are all going to get a ton of targets. After that it gets interesting to me. There will be a lot of young and inexperienced talent on campus once fall camp starts.

Quincy Adeboyejo -- 600 yards and 7 touchdowns in '15
Stringfellow -- 500 yards and 5 touchdowns in '15
Evan Engram (TE officially) -- almost 1400 yards receiving in his career at OM (over 400 yards in '15)
Markell Pack -- 380 yards and 3 touchdowns in '15.
Van Jefferson -- 4* out of HS. Redshirted last year but supposedly he has passed some veteran guys on the depth chart.
Demarcus Lodge -- 4* out of HS. Played a little last year. Everyone likes his athleticism and size.

AJ Brown -- 4* will be a true freshman. He looks really good on film.
DK Metcalf -- 4* will be a true freshman. Lots of size still some developing to do.
Tre Nixon -- 4* will be a true freshman. Supposedly has some nice wheels.

Very true. TE is the only spot you can realistically feel confident about on offense for us.

Questions everywhere.

I've been unhappy with Azzani for a while. He was the one I wanted us to upgrade. That said, Preston Williams is going to shine this year. His talent will overcome any coaching deficit.

Wasn't a huge fan of him before 2015 but he proved me wrong and many other doubters, kids got a lot of heart. Couldn't really ask for more as a fan.

I'll expand.

1 - Josh Malone - Will play like a 5' 2 receiver and get pushed around at the line of scrimmage. He will want to only run deep routes but won't fight for the ball.

2 - Preston Williams - He will show flashes of greatness but be gimpy all year and we will only hear of how good he could be.

3 - Josh Smith - He will mysteriously play like a 5* recruit and have 70% of our production.

Preston ain't Marquez North. Hell, he was still rehabbing his ACL while playing last year as a true freshman who missed half of fall camp because the NCAA decided he needed to retake his ACT as they thought he might've scored too well and yet he was still more productive than North. He doesn't have a history of being gimpy and even when he was gimpy he still had a good true frosh campaign despite the circumstances.

SC's WR situation will probably be pretty typical for us in '16. We'll have a Fr All SEC WR step up and then another All SEC WR come forward. Very possibly another Fr All American or All American WR Looking back the past 10 years, that seems to be a pretty consistent pattern.


I think Bryan Edwards will probably be our Fr All SEC WR. He's big, fast, has great body control and a basketball background as well. He already caught 2 TD's in the spring game and was willing to take the contact to secure the catches. He'll be in the mold of the Rice, Alshon mold.

Our speed WR is going to be Deebo Samuels, he's a sub 4.4 guy with decent size. He'll help us stretch the field to open the running game and will be lethal in zone coverages. He's probably a good candidate for the All SEC WR that we'll have. He fits into the Elllington, Sanders, Williamson mold.

We'll have a great possession WR this year in Jamari Smith. He's a former RB and DB, but a workhorse in the weight room and his star shone bright in spring camp and the spring game. He is very elusive and gets separation quickly, so we'll hit him in the slot a lot. He's in that Cooper, McKinley mold for us.

After that the 2 Deep is wide open.

Arkansas returns 142-2160-25 including a backup TE, replace him with a healthy Hatcher and we would probably be right up there in receptions and yards
