Improved pitch key for Sullivan
Charley Sullivan looks like a different pitcher compared to the last time he pitched in Oxford as a Charger. Heck, the former EAGLE All-Area teamer has changed just from last year. (April 12, 2013, Page 6A)
Sullivan earns complete game win vs. Vols

Rebs top ‘Bama, keep hopes alive
Andy Kennedy’s goal of earning a bye for his Ole Miss Rebels in the first round of the Southeastern Conference Tournament became more of a reality Tuesday night with an 87-83 win over Alabama. While the ending at C.M. “Tad” Smith Coliseum wasn’t ideal — Alabama hit six 3-pointers in the final 1:55 to cut a double-digit lead down to four — the Rebels played much better than they did last Saturday at Mississippi State to earn the win.

Wallace’s job could be up for grabs
Just five weeks after sophomore Bo Wallace secured the starting quarterback position away from Barry Brunetti, Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze announced Monday there would be more competition this week between the quarterbacks. In essence, Freeze is going to have a mini summer camp this week to see who can best lead the Rebels (3-2 overall, 0-1 in Southeastern Conference play) against the red-hot Texas A&M Aggies (3-1, 1-1).

VIDEO BLOG: Ole Miss hasn’t exactly gone back to the drawing board, but head coach Hugh Freeze did make it pretty clear that just because Bo Wallace has been the man, doesn’t mean he will continue to be QB 1 if he continues to turn over the ball. (more…) (October 1, 2012)
Rebels fight, fall to No. 1 ‘Bama 33-14
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Hugh Freeze’s face walking into Saturday night’s postgame press conference to talk about his Ole Miss Rebels’ 33-14 setback to No. 1 Alabama in front of 101,821 fans at Bryant-Denny Stadium said everything that needed to be said. It appeared that Freeze was more pleased with how his team played against the vaunted Crimson Tide even before he said as much.
His face also seemed to show disappointment with mistakes made again during the course of the game, such as the 99-yard kickoff return for a touchdown turned in by Christion Jones that erased the Rebels’ only lead of the game.
In the end, Freeze was pleased with the effort, the fight and the attitude his Rebels displayed in their first road game in a hostile environment, but he just wanted the game to be a little closer late and he took blame for not allowing that to happen. (October 1, 2012, Page 1B)
