Rebel Roundup - 12/15/09
Ole Miss official: Kansas hasn't inquired about Rebels coach Nutt | LJWorld.com
Well, if Pete Boone says so... Actually though, I have gathered from all of the recent hoopla that any discussions between Kansas and Nutt were just that--between Kansas and Nutt, not the Ole Miss athletic department. By the way, Turner Gill is the new Jayhawks head coach, if you haven't noticed.
Rolling Rebels Move to Number 20 | Brandt
"Rolling" Rebels? Whatever, Brandt. I'll give you a pass because you cover basketball better than any beat writer I can recall. He has some good notes on the UTEP game you should check out. That's going to be a tough one, but a win there really will help our ranking and RPI.
It's all in the Numbers | WJTV
Jason Hurst of WJTV takes a good look at RPI scores and how they are affecting both Ole Miss and Southern Piss (tAbLeS tUrNeD AGAIN!) with regards to poll rankings. We Rebels and they Golden Eagles are both one-loss teams, with Southern's lone loss coming at our hands and our lone loss coming to a top-10 Villanova squad. It's a good read, albeit a bit confusing because, after reading it, I had to ask myself, "where is Mississippi State on this list?" I mean, they are the basketball powerhouse of the SEC West, right? That's what they say, isn't it?
Ex-Pineville Star to Sign | The Town Talk dot Com
Damien Jackson, a four-star safety commit out of Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College, was a star free safety at his hometown Pineville High. Sayeth the article:
Jackson, the All-Cenla Defensive Player of the Year in 2007, is "the best free safety I've ever coached," said former Pineville football coach Mike Richard.
Sounds good to me.

FYI
Sandra Bullock was nominated for a Golden Globe this AM for her portrayal of Leigh Ann Tuohy in “The Blind Side.” Nice to see the movie get some recognition in the awards season.

Good news
about Damien Jackson. Nice to see these 4-star and 5-star (Wayne Dorsey) recruits committing to the Rebels, even if it is verbal commits. I don’t rest until the name is signed on the dotted line. Just hate they are both JUCO and we only get 2 years with them.
DAMN IT TO HELL!!! I WAS going to say something nice about LSU... but my clock ran out.

Nice read
from recruit Wayne Dorsey’s hometown (Baltimore, Maryland) newspaper. He and a friend from Baltimore have been playing together at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College. Now Dorsey is coming to Ole Miss, his friend is going to MSUx…
Dorsey has teamed with former City lineman James Carmon these past two years to help MGCCC to consecutive Top 10 national rankings. Carmon, a 6-foot-7, 365-pound defensive tackle, committed to Mississippi State earlier this month.
Egg Bowl coming up
“Last night he came in and was talking about the Egg Bowl this year and how he can’t wait for it next year,” Dorsey said. “I think [the rivalry] has already started. Since I’ve been seeing him, I’ve been telling him, ‘Hotty Toddy’ [Ole Miss’ fight song] and he’ll say, ’Don’t say that to me.’ But no matter what, we’re going to be close because of this experience. The rivalry’s not going to break the bond that we have.”
“I wasn’t going to get through the [NCAA] clearinghouse, and [the Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College coaches] said that if I wanted to come in and work … I would have many options,” Dorsey said. “But my first thoughts were, ‘Mississippi? I’m born and raised in West Baltimore. I’m not going all the way to Mississippi.’ But everything worked out for the best.”
