Bo Wallace told me Senior Bowl contacted #OleMiss about him replacing Nick Marshall as third South Team QB. Ole Miss failed to inform him.

Damn! That's a terrible thing to do to a player who gave your program a lot over the past 3 years.

It is unfortunate. I want to believe Hugh Freeze, and I have defended him before (I have defended his faith, rather). It does seem, however, that he is crossing the line and routinely doing things that contradict what he preaches. Some of it is unavoidable, some of it is not. He is appearing, to me, to be somewhat of a slick salesman rather than living his life based on Christian principles. A master of deception is much worse than a non-believer, in my mind. I am not ready to crucify him yet, but perhaps he should tone it down a bit, if he is going to do things like this to one of his most productive players (who cannot help him anymore). It truly seems he threw Wallace under the bus repeatedly, and now has cast him out into the street. It also seems that he preaches Christianity to the right people, and feigns ignorance when it comes to the 'other' aspects of Ole Miss, of which they are truly known for and self-proclaimed undefeated therein, in January and other times.

Sounds like a potential lawsuit...but what would the damages be? That'd be

difficult to prove. I feel terrible for him. That's horrible. It would have given him a chance to at least try to continue his career.

All I'll say about Hugh Freeze's faith is
And when you pray, you shall not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

If this is true, it is very dumb of Ole Miss or Freeze to do. If it is true, you'd think it would be a PR nightmare to do this to a former player who is weeks removed from being a part of the team.

17 I hope its true.

Well it says 3rd QB and we all know how upset Bo gets when he doesn't come in 2nd or 3rd. Hugh was just trying to protect him.

Wow. That says a great deal about what Rev. Freeze thinks about his ability

to prepare QBs for the pros. That's also not very Christian like.

I'm sure Kellenfatass will posts some tweet about the "real" story.****

What a shock that is. The OM machine will whitewash this and make it like it never happened. Bo and Hugh will come out with statements soon about how this was all a big misunderstanding and Bo loves Ole Miss #HottyToddy

And they beat a top 20 team!!!!

and beat their #2 rival... We are #2 right? I think we should be. If we're not, it motivates me to be even more rivalrous. But also, yes. Kelly has a chance to be just as productive as Wallace. He's more of a liability off the field, but it's not like that's ever gonna stop Freeze.

Someone is lying ...

Ben Garrett ‏@SpiritBen

Ben Garrett ‏<s>@</s>SpiritBen <small class="time"> 28s28 seconds ago </small> <s>#</s>OleMiss says it was never contacted by the Senior Bowl regarding Bo Wallace. I've independently confirmed no invite was extended.

Did Ben 'confirm no invite' with Ole Miss or the Sr Bowl?

Honest question: Do OM fans really believe Chad Kelly will be better than Bo?

I can only speak for myself. I don't really know what to expect out of Kelly. His juco highlights don't mean much to me. As it stands, I have no reason to think he will be better or worse than Bo. He's unproven, so if I had to pick an answer, I would say he won't be better than Bo. I don't get overly optimistic about this sort of thing.

I remember one game that they had a running game.**

Freeze's has gone defense. Their defense won those games. His offense ain't what it used to be. But it was only a matter of time before everyone adjusted to (his) read-option spread.

The writing on the wall is that you have to have a QB who can run as well as pass.

Just curious, where in that did it say Freeze knew at all? Just curious how you immediately jumped to "freeze didn't tell him" when it says Ole Miss. Could have easily been a football office staffer. This is assuming it happened, which Garrett says Ole Miss and Senior Bowl officials deny. Garrett says Bo's representation told Bo of invite.

I have no idea if kelly will be better, worse, or equal. I do remember buddy Stephens saying of the two that bo has the stronger arm. If true, that's gotta be a good thing for us
