After losing senior all-SEC quarterback Chad Kelly for the year in a win over Georgia Southern, Ole Miss head coach Hugh Freeze now turns his attention to Texas A&M and his team’s prospects of bowl eligibility. During Freeze’s weekly Monday press conference, Hugh said he “would rule nothing out” and “all options are on the table” with regards to who the Rebels’ signal caller will be.
This is a frustrating non-answer to a question that has had Ole Miss fans worried since Saturday: where does this team go from here? Do they stick with backup Jason Pellerin, who has seen a fair number of snaps this season so far, or do they pull the redshirt off of blue chip freshman quarterback Shea Patterson?
