Questions and Few Answers


Coming into the Spring Game, I did not know what to expect of this football team. After the game, I still have no idea what to expect from this team next year. The Ole Miss fan base is definitely behind the new coaching staff, this was obvious in the number of fans in the stands. On defense, we are going to be pretty darn good. The d-line is looking real good(even without standout McKinley Boykin). Patrick Willis is going to be one of the better players in the SEC next year. He along with the rest of the defense will keep us in most of our games. The offense is a different story. The O-Line still has many questions to be answered. We are really lacking in this department. The quarterback situation has not gotten any better since last season in my opinion. Spurlock is still making the same type decisions he made last year. I just wish BenJarvis Green-Ellis( or whatever his name is) was going to be playing next year, he looked pretty good at the RB position, but he will have to sit out due to transferring. Finally the kicking game looked bad, there is definitely room for improvement and positions up in the air in the kicking department. Hopefully the summer workouts will improve this team. Overall though, not too bad just room to improve.
