Ole Miss sits LT Tunsil amid NCAA probe

“It’s rare that she can come”.

“UT-Martin Coach Jason Simpson is a wonderful man. He and I worked some camps together when I was at Lambuth up in the mountains at FCA camp”, Freeze said.

Ole Miss lined up Nkemdiche in the backfield as a full back and ran a screen pass to him for a 31-yard touchdown pass.

Freeze isn’t sure how his team will perform in the first game, but he is sure about one thing; he has a starting quarterback-for now-going into the 17th-ranked Rebels’ home season-opener against FCS school UT-Martin.

ALL EYES ON THE QBs: Junior transfer Chad Kelly – the nephew of NFL Hall of Famer and Buffalo Bills QB Jim Kelly – makes his debut as the starter on Saturday.

He threw for 211 yards and two touchdowns and also added a 20-yard touchdown run. The Rebels were so efficient, and explosive, on offense they only had possession for 9 minutes in the first half.Buchanan also had some impressive moments as he completed four of his six passes for 58 yards. He beat out sophomores Ryan Buchanan and DeVante Kincade for the job, though Freeze has said repeatedly the competition was very close and he doesn’t want the depth chart “set in stone”. I like all three.

It was a message to the rest of the Rebels’ opponents: You aren’t getting rid of us so easily. Saturday provided evidence that his teammates Treadwell and Nkemdiche are well on their way towards holding up their end of the bargain, potentially making the 2015-2016 season a historic one for Freeze and the Rebels. Treadwell – who was the team’s leading receiver in 2014 – broke his leg and dislocated his ankle in a gruesome injury against Auburn last season.

The secondary continued their dominant ways from last season by holding UT-Martin to 176 yards through the air and forcing one interception. Good luck tackling that guy, SEC defenses. His explosiveness was demonstrated with how quickly he burst through the line of scrimmage to block the field goal, which was just a 23-yard attempt.

Ole Miss said during the summer it was working with the NCAA regarding potential violations after Tunsil’s stepfather made allegations that the offensive lineman had improper contact with agents and received improper benefits.

22, nearly the whole first round of the National Football League draft will be Ole Miss players.
