9/4 Ole Miss Gameday!

SECGridironGirl — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 16:35:43 +0000

Quarterback transfer Jeremiah Masoli has finally been approved by the NCAA to play this year for Ole Miss.

Ole Miss still has not decided on their new mascot, but to me they will always be the Rebels.

Defensive End Kentrell Lockett will miss this week’s opener against Jacksonville State but will return for next week’s game agains Tulane.

Tennessee Coaching Search

SECGridironGirl — Thu, 14 Jan 2010 01:00:32 +0000

Update 1/13 @7:00pm: While many think Tennessee’s number one focus is Will Muschamp there are mixed messages floating around right now: one source says Muschamp met with Tennessee officials this morning another reports that a Knoxville radio station is reporting that Muschamp turned down Tennessee’s offer.

————————————————–

According to @dandbradio one report of a plane heading to Oxford for Houston Nutt tonight, another report says Jon Gruden has already been contacted.

Tony Barnhart, @MrCFB adds Will Muschamp, David Cutcliffe and Phillip Fulmer to the list.

Mark Schlabach says the #1 target for Tennessee is Will Muschamp, however Texas beat writer Suzanne Halliburton says according to her source there is no truth to the Muschamp to Tennessee rumor.

More names in the mix include Air Force coach Troy Calhoun, Oklahoma State’s Mike Gundy, TCU’s Gary Patterson, Connecticut’s Randy Edsall, and Alabama’s Kirby Smart
