I could care less about someone's personal sex life. It's none of my business. Now, not fielding a good defense or allegedly getting into a verbal spat with an NCAA investigator. That's what upsets me. ...

re: does Luke get fired
Posted by Powell on 11/18/18 at 12:35 pm
No, I don't think so. If it's clear that his recruiting classes can't contribute and improve the team, then he'll be gone. Now, whether that'll happen or not, we'll see. He's been coaching with several liabilities and I'm not sure any coach would do too much better with this squad. They'll most l...
re: Ole Miss Chancellor Resigns
Posted by Powell on 11/9/18 at 11:38 am
I don't speak for all, but sports aside, compared to the last two chancellors he doesn't look to have done as well. Under Khayat and Jones, enrollment increased and academic standing improved. I don't think these same factors have significantly improved as much under Vitter. As far as his politics,...
re: Being an Ole Miss fan sucks (a melt thread by Landmass)
Posted by Powell on 9/17/18 at 12:11 pm
Good grief! Why not just sit back and see what happens. All programs except maybe Alabama with Saban ebb and flow. Ole Miss has gotten rid of the racist symbols and can now compete for the type of athlete other programs attract. We'll possibly change a few coaches, build up the program and win s...

re: Which MS team has more fans? Ole miss or state?

A two star running back may cause some excitement
Posted by Powell on 8/10/18 at 6:17 pm
Ole Miss has a two star running back that no major program wanted. He may have even been a consolation signing due to Ole Miss losing out on another student athlete late in the recruiting season, but he's on the team now and may be an exciting addition to the SEC. Keep a watch on him. His name is...

Currently, I have not seen anything about Alabama in the Rebel Rags court case. Just, Mullen, Stricklin, Sheridan and the NCAA. If the judge rules the NCAA transcripts and investigation proceedings will be ma...

re: Ole Miss Fans, talk to me about your football team this year
Posted by Powell on 8/8/18 at 1:25 pm
It's true. The State game was not one of his better games. On the very first play that wasn't a penalty, Lodge had gotten behind the defender and if the ball had been put on the money, he probably would have scored. He also missed Lodge for another touchdown later in the game. Also, who knows wh...
re: Ole Miss Fans, talk to me about your football team this year
Posted by Powell on 8/8/18 at 11:14 am
If our linebackers improve, Ole Miss will be a very good team. If the linebackers don't improve, Ole Miss could be one of the worst teams in the conference. Last year they overran the play a lot or were out of place, and when they didn't, they weren't as physical as they needed to be. Ole Miss shou...
re: Ole Miss could win 8 games.
Posted by Powell on 7/31/18 at 6:45 pm
The difference between 3 wins and 9 wins will be the linebacker development. No one knows how that will work out, so to guess the final record is fanciful speculation. One thing for sure, Ole Miss has improved the QB position and have possibly the best receivers in the nation. They should be fun to...
re: Ole Miss could have hired both Morris or Pruitt and passed
Posted by Powell on 12/7/17 at 2:14 pm
From what I understand, Pruitt and Morris would take the job if offered. However, why would Ole Miss offer as long as the team continued to develop? Why start over with new coaches and a new system when there are some pretty good players returning? Ole Miss has the chance to be very competitive ne...
Self imposed plus one year bowl ban
Posted by Powell on 12/1/17 at 3:40 pm
I really thought it would be the self-imposed with four or five extra scholarship reductions. Didn't think it would be the self-imposed with an additional year bowl ban. Ole Miss has twelve seniors who could transfer without sitting out but I doubt if they want to. The Rebs have a better coach tha...
re: Dan Mullen will be the next coach at the University of Florida.
Posted by Powell on 10/31/17 at 3:25 pm
Don't think he will leave. He's a good coach but has issues retaining staff and has had disappointing recruiting years. State fans like him and they are happy with anything over six wins a year. Florida is a harsher and more demanding. He needs to stay in Starkville. ...

"...penalties announced as early as next week, but within next three weeks. Accepting the one year bowl ban, 25 schollies taken overall and some other ineffectual stuff."
Delta, you may be right but I heard anywhere from accepting self imposed sanctions to 21 overall scholarships. Ole Miss has al...

"I'm hearing Ole Miss gets a slap on the wrist and the rant melts"
No, Ole Miss will have serious sanctions. It'll most likely be the self-imposed sanctions with a few extra scholarships thrown in. Academic fraud is serious. Barney may also get a show cause. The one-year bowl ban will most lik...
