Ole Miss players react to the NCAA ruling

As of now, everyone seems all in.

By Zach Berry
Josh McCoy-Ole Miss Athletics

On Friday, Ole Miss was unfortunately handed yet another year of no postseason play, scholarship reductions, and some coaches were given show-causes. But, spirits remain high after a 6-6 year and an Egg Bowl victory and there seems to be the slightest hint of momentum now that the decision is behind everyone.

But one thing that can save you from apathy and mass exodus is if current players and recruits come together and show some loyalty towards not only Ole Miss, but each other. Matt Luke is certainly going to be someone who will be able to bring the best out of each and every one of the players and recruits when it comes to showing love to Oxford and the Flagship.

He may not of been everyone’s first choice for head coach, or even their second or third, but he will be the perfect candidate to show solidarity and hold this thing together while we recover from a five-year enema.

The players seem to be ready for anything now that the questions have been answered. Let’s see what they’re saying.
