We promise. We've got our thoughts on the football team thus far and, no, they're not all bad.
Snead's gone but not hope at Ole Miss | The Clarion-Ledger
Rick, you've lived in Mississippi forever; you know that hope is always in ample supply in Lafayette County. And, frankly, none of us are really that beat up over Snead's departure.
Ole Miss scrimmage shows team's depth at running back | The Commercial Appeal
"Depth at running back" during spring football is kind press-speak for "they don't have anyone willing or capable of taking the number one halfback spot by the reins." You know it. Brandon Bolden, Enrique Davis, Devin Thomas and others are all good backs, but none of them are particularly great and, unless one breaks out and asserts himself as the back our running game could be pretty frustrating.
Ole Miss edges Gamecocks | WACH
Leave it to Ole Miss to lose the Friday and Saturday night games for the first time all season right before winning the Sunday game of an SEC series--also the first such event of the season. South Carolina's a good ballclub so this one doesn't sting so bad. Still though, we're far to poor in relief pitching and inconsistent overall to expect this club to get far.
Chadwick Nets 600th Win As Rebels Drop MSU | OleMissSports.com
Ole Miss Rebel mens tennis defeated State for the 25th consecutive match and Billy Chadwick earned his 600th career coaching victory. Dynasty, bitches. More to come from Ivory or 25 Days a Week.
Rebels Second At SEC Championship - OleMissSports.com
For a school that's trying it's damndest to fight it's snobby, white, Southern country club stereotype, we're pretty good at country club sports. Congrats to the Rebel golfers for their 2nd place finish at the SEC Tournament, the best finish in the West.

I actually completely disagree about the "running back situation."
Of course, the old adage on quarterbacks is if you have 2, you don’t have any, but when dealing with a position like running back (especially at least one that we’ve already seen as a productive member of our offense), there’s reason to be optimistic. Of course, Bolden and "Enrick" won’t be Dexter McCluster, but who’s asking them to be? Bolden has consistently shown that he hardly coughs up the ball, can make big plays, and never takes the first hit.

Tennis Match was Awesome - I'm Addicted!
Jonas finally won a big match tie-breaker and did it against States’s biggest anuswipe (srsly: that guy did not get bullied enough in middle school), and Chris continued to play in a match in which he probably should have retired due to injury. During one point, Chris injured his back, which drastically altered his ability to hit a backhand shot (or even bend down to grab his towel). He lost the first set, started forcing his forehand and playing conservative with defensive hits on his backhand, and he won a second set tie-breaker that did not allow State to get a confidence boost when they needed one. Shortly after, Jonas won his match, which in addition to the tie-break win included a comeback (from 0-3 down) in the first set. That sealed it as we all waited for Adrian to finish off his opponent. Oh ya, and aside from losing the first set, Tucker looked dominant again. It was cool. I hope there is still more tennis to be played in Oxford. State sucks! Woohoo!
I'm a Rebel, but I bleed the cherry and silver of the Lobos.
Don't forget to mention that the chair ump at Jonas' match
was a real dumbass. Jonas seemingly had the cards stacked against him but was able to take Lil’ Rambo (y’all should have seen this guy—hilarious) down in tiebreakers.
