Since the moment that Chad Kelly left Vaught-Hemingway Stadium last Saturday favoring his right leg, Hugh Freeze was faced with uncertainty, and once an MRI revealed significant damage to Kelly’s knee, Freeze has been faced with one of the more difficult decisions he has had during his tenure at Ole Miss.
Should he go with backup Jason Pellerin? Or should he take a peek into the future and let loose a talented true freshman in Shea Patterson?
On Wednesday after practice, Freeze made it clear that while he would talk to his coaching staff and the players’ families, it would ultimately be his decision.
