With the summer months now upon us and the calendar firmly entrenched in June these national preview magazines are going to start rolling out as the precursor to preseason polls and All-American lists. The Rebels continue to earn high praise and national expectations are still rising with Lindy’s annual issue no different, startin...

The success Ole Miss has sustained under Lane Kiffin has been attributed to the potent play of the offense under the guidance of Charlie Weis, Jr. Weis was hired in January 2022 as co-offensive coordinator by Kiffin and shared that title with former tight ends coach John David Baker. Baker was hired away by East Carolina last December to take over the Pirates offense. Now Weis is the sole offensive coordinator of one of the top offenses in college football and is being compensated as such. He signed a new three-year contract after the 2023 season and this season’s salary makes Weis one of the ...

Former Ole Miss defensive tackle KD Hill isn’t even a year removed from the car accident that cost him his right leg below the knee. Actually, surgeons performed the amputation while Hill was still in the car. His football career was over in an instant and after Hill had been readying for the NFL. He’d put forth strong showings in minicamps with the New York Jets and Buffalo Bills, resulting in a contract with the XFL’s Orlando Guardians. “I knew that God had better plans for me,” Hill said, in an exclusive sit-down with the ‘Ivey League,’ a podcast powered by the Ole Miss Spirit and RiverLand...
