The Ole Miss Rebels hope to start strong in 2011

BY DAVID COLLIER dlcollie@olemiss.edu

The Rebels hope to get off to a better start this season than they did last season, when the Jacksonville State Gamecocks shocked the world in a 49-48 double-overtime win over Ole Miss, but the task will not be easy.

This is because Ole Miss will welcome the Cougars of Brigham Young University to open up the 2011 football season with a non-conference matchup.

“I know that (BYU head coach) Bronco Mendenhall and his team will be tough,” head coach Houston Nutt said. “They will be smart and disciplined.

They have a quarterback (Jake Heaps) coming back with a lot of confidence and experience.

“They have receivers that are tall and some big offensive linemen. They have a good football team. They are tough, experienced and disciplined. They don’t beat themselves.”

This first game is vital for the Rebels in setting the tone for the rest of the season, Nutt said.

“There is no doubt about it that in the first game you need to get off on the right foot,” he said. “It is very important. We

would not approach it any other way.”

Nutt said his players respect BYU. “They know they have a good football team,” Nutt said. “This is a big game, a new start and a new season. Everyone is very anxious.”

This Saturday will also mark the first start for sophomore Barry Brunetti, who was named the starter last week. Junior Zack Stoudt is also expected to play in the game Saturday.

Brunetti is excited to get the nod, but also understands the responsibility that comes with it.

“I’m anxious,” Brunetti said during practice this week. “I’m ready. I know the offense. I know the game plan. I’m glad my family and friends want to come see me play, but I’m not going to let that be used against me.

“You just have to turn the phone off a couple of times.”

Offensive coordinator David Lee has noticed a difference in Brunetti’s play as Saturday approaches.

“Barry looked good,” Lee said.

“It’s the first time I truly felt like he looked like a starter, practiced like a starter. He hit what he was throwing at. I’m encouraged.”

But even if Brunetti and com-

pany move the ball down the field and put points on the board, the defense will need to hold off the air raid of the Cougars.

BYU sophomore quarterback Jake Heaps will be a handful for the Ole Miss secondary. New defensive backs coach Keith Burns, as well as the additions of junior college transfer Wesley Pendle-

ton and freshmen Senquez Golson and Cody Prewitt, will play a huge role if the unit has hopes of improvement this season.

The pass defense starts with the defensive line, led by senior defensive ends Kentrell Lockett and Wayne Dorsey.

“Defensively last year, we felt we were solid and had a lot of

experience,” Nutt said. “We just didn’t play with that experience and passion.”

Nutt said Justin Smith, Lockett, Wayne Dorsey, Byron Bennett, Carlton Martin, Gilbert Pena and Uriah Grant have to get it done for the Rebels.

Teenagers are feeling the effects of a struggling economy

BY SARAH HARDEN seharden135@gmail.com

Gettings jobs over the past year has been tough, particularly for teenagers and young adults.

Economics professor Nilufer Ozdemir believes the low number of jobs available is due to the state of the economy, which is causing older workers to fill jobs typically taken by younger workers. This is due to the loss of jobs for skilled workers.

“We had a terrible financial crisis in 2008, and then we got into a very deep recession in the aftermath of this crisis,” Ozdemir said. “A crisis like this in general

Johnny DuPree as governor in a place like Mississippi?

BY EMILY STEDMAN stedmanemily@gmail.com

Mississippi is the home to 2.97 million people. Of that population, 37 percent or 1.1 million people are black.

Even after the Great Migration of the 1940s, when a high number of blacks fled the state in the face of civil rights unrest, as of the 2010 census, this state had the highest proportion of blacks in the nation.

As a result, Mississippi has more black locally-elected officials than any other state in the country.

But, it has yet to see a black person, male or female, elected to a state-wide position since Reconstruction.

In the 1970s, two men ran, unsuccessfully, for governor of Mississippi.

Charles Evers, the brother of slain civil rights activist Medgar Evers, ran in 1971, and State

Sen. Henry Kirsey ran in 1975, but neither men faced a primary election.

While Congressman Bennie Thompson represents Mississippi’s 2nd Congressional District, which includes much of Jackson, Clarksdale, Greenwood, Vicksburg, Greenville and Clinton, no black person has held a national senate seat in Mississippi since Blanche Kelso Bruce in 1847 (and he was elected by the state legislature, not by the people, as the 17th Amendment had not yet been passed).

This is where Johnny DuPree enters the picture.

DuPree is the three-time elected mayor of Hattiesburg, Mississippi’s third-largest city.

DuPree was the first black man to hold that position and has since become known as the most influential black person in the state.

DuPree won a run-off primary against Clarksdale lawyer and businessman Bill Luckett,

who was backed by Morgan Freeman.

With this win, DuPree became the first black candidate in modern times to win a major-party nomination for Mississippi governor.

He will face current Lt. Gov. Phil Bryant on Nov. 8.

His platform focuses on five issues: education, budget issues, job creation, corrections reform and Medicaid.

To some, DuPree faces an uphill battle. Bryant has already spent $3.1 million on his candidacy. This figure is more than double what DuPree and Luckett have spent combined.

But, to others, DuPree should not be underestimated or dismissed.

He has shown, as mayor, that he is comfortable in typically white political circles.

And, as a black candidate in a state known for its heated racial climate, DuPree is likely to gain national attention and possibly

and people achieve firsts in any field when they are of any race, religion or gender?

Change can be hard. The status quo treats the majority of people quite well.

But, for a state that has come so far, despite the rumors and reputation and stereotypes, isn’t it at least a little thrilling to be present as DuPree pushes forth and, win-or-lose, brings a new angle and opportunity to politics in Mississippi?

Mississippi is a hot-bed of Southern politics, and Mississippians are strong-willed and unafraid to voice their opinions.

Hopefully DuPree’s candidacy can continue to bring awareness to the potential for political advancement and activism in this state.

even receive substantial out-ofstate support.

So what about DuPree’s race?

He’s clearly qualified and popular (among all races). DuPree has made it his mission to run a clean race.

Not only does he hope to refrain from criticizing others and to run on his own ideas, but he also aims to run a race-neutral campaign.

And, clearly, Bryant will not be the one to bring up this issue.

When President Obama ran his campaign back in 2008, and even following his win and inauguration in 2009, many people claimed that his race is why he won.

And sure, there was a huge chunk of the population that got wrapped up in the “timesthey-are-a-changing” vibe. But is that really so awful?

Shouldn’t we get excited when boundaries are broken

The white boys are coming to town

BY AMELIA CAMURATI acamurati@mac.com

Nothing is more prominent at Ole Miss than the stereotype.

The Greeks. The ignorant.

The spoiled. The partiers. The conservatives. The racists.

The list goes on and on. Most are based on some form of truth, some are extreme exaggerations and none are actually true.

Last week, Daniel Sorensen, a sophomore defensive back at Brigham Young University, was interviewed about his thoughts on tomorrow’s game in Oxford against the Cougars.

For those not in the know, Sorensen was originally recruited

by Ole Miss a few years back, but chose BYU in the end based on their religiously based curriculum and his desire to take a mission trip.

When asked the hypothetical, “What if you’d attended Ole Miss and had to play BYU?” Sorensen babbled for more than two minutes about the importance of his faith and his hopes to beat us.

“The purpose of BYU, and why we’re playing, and where we are trying to go with this

program — it kind of fires you up, it kind of gets you excited,” Sorensen said. “To go out there and play for a specific purpose of showing people that we’re playing for more than football.”

More than football? Is there such a thing?

Not in the Southeastern Conference there’s not, so I think you made the right decision.

BYU has its own stereotypes in tow, from the religious zealots to the “racist white boys” description that is getting so much hype thanks to Sorensen.

“What if we go out there and dominate, and people start seeing us and we put us on the map when we are on ESPN?” Sorensen said. “They start wondering who these kids are, what are they doing with their lives and why are they so good.

Maybe a bunch of white boys out there who go down and, you know, beat up an SEC team, a big, physical team like that, and we go in there and dominate.”

First of all, if you want to be “on the map” for beating up an SEC powerhouse ... you might want to head a bit further east. Rebel pride for life, but we aren’t ranked highly. A loss this weekend wouldn’t be

the biggest upset we’ve had in a season opener. Don’t expect a SportsCenter top package and A1 headlines across the country if you manage to “go out there and dominate.”

Trivialities aside, many BYU fans are outraged over the coverage this word slip is getting.

“Comments like these can be taken the wrong way by those who don’t understand how much BYU has to put up with the white boys label,” said a fan on the CougarBoard online message boards.

It’s not just the school that deals with that stereotype — it’s the entire LDS clan.

We fight day after day to remove the stigmas surrounding our beloved Ole Miss that stuck to the campus and infiltrated our home. We understand having ugly assumptions muddle good accolades.

We’re not racists, and I’m betting you’re not, either, Daniel.

So, you offended a good chunk of people. Who in the public eye hasn’t at one time or another?

Essentially, everyone is up in arms because a young adult said his football team was a big ol’ group of white boys.

Letters to the Editor To: Mayor Pat Patterson, Board of Aldermen Most people in the Oxford community do not go to bars on the Square, but we learn now that we are burdened with even more expenses created by bar operations.

The recent announcement about the hiring of four new police officers because of recent disturbances on the Square greatly concerns those of us who are footing the bill for these new salaries.

Why should we, and not the business owners involved, be responsible for this additional degree of security prompted by their needs?

We look to you, our elected officials, to find ways to solve this problem.

Elizabeth Shiver Brenda and Bill West To the editor: While I tend to agree with Adam Ganucheau’s opinions about our growing student population in his column, I was disappointed by the jabs taken at other schools, especially Mississippi State (“MooU”).

Part of considering ourselves a “quality” university is

being respectful of other institutions, especially our neighbors.

Demeaning names and downright insults don’t speak well of us here at Ole Miss or improve our image.

While I, too, am proud to be a part of this school and its programs, being a truly great school does not mean that other schools do not have their own points of pride, and it certainly does not necessitate stooping to rudeness.

Ryan Ezelle Junior International studies and Spanish rkezelle@olemiss.edu

Well, did he lie? Where the hell is the offensive part of this?

With the exception of a handful of players, he’s right. BYU is a school predominately attended by white Mormon kids, and the athletics department reflects that population. Ours just happens to be the reverse.

Political correctness runs rampant across the wires in today’s society and masses are becoming offended on a daily basis by simple errors in judgment.

How many black football players do we have in the SEC? Can anyone do that math real quick? How about at Ole Miss alone?

He didn’t attack our team; he made a statement about his own. We joke about our snobby students and our pathetically low acceptance standards because we don’t want that to define who we are as a university.

So ... why can’t he?

Race relations are tense south of the Mason-Dixon line, but

THE

that’s not something ingrained in his subconscious. He’s not some redneck white knight — just a nice, religious boy who talks too much.

He didn’t cast racial slurs. He didn’t threaten our boys. He really didn’t do anything wrong.

This weekend isn’t about race, religion, sex, creed, gender or anything else protected by hate crime legislation. We’re in football country, and football we will play. If you want to fight this battle, it’s on: Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, 3:45 p.m. Be there or be (at the) Square.

I don’t think you’re in Utah any more, BYU boys, which reminds me...

Enjoy the Mississippi weather because humidity is a bitch.

Can’t wait to party it up tomorrow with y’all in the Grove.

Gameday shuttle returns for 2011 football season

BY NORMAN FRENCH nmfrench@olemiss.edu

The gameday shuttle service to Vaught-Hemingway Stadium is returning for the third year, provided by the city of Oxford for all home games in the fall.

City officials said the service benefits the city, the university and visitors alike.

“Basically, it will get people to go to the game and to have a good experience when coming to Oxford,” Matt Davis, the service’s coordinator, said.

“A lot of people come to Oxford, and they think it’s too

crowded. The shuttle service allows them to enjoy themselves on game day.”

Fans will park at either Central Middle School or Oxford Activities Center, and from there they will be shuttled on 40-60 passenger buses to the stadium.

To park and ride the bus costs $5 per person, round trip, and parking lot security will be provided at both locations at no additional charge.

The service starts three hours prior to kick-off and ends two hours after the game.

“When 65,000 to 85,000 folks come to town, it just

kills our infrastructure, so we are looking for ways to move people to the stadium and back into town as efficiently as possible,” Mayor Pat Patterson said.

The service has been offered for two years and has gained popularity from season to season.

Buses were added and many customers now rely on the service for gameday transportation.

“We have gotten more reliable with our service,” Davis said.

“People enjoy our service and love to come use us. They will call us in June and ask us

if we’re still doing it. We’ve had a great response to what we’ve done.”

The service is open to anyone, but it is especially popular with fans driving into town hoping to avoid the stress of gameday traffic.

Davis said many visiting teams’ fans call him before the game asking about the service.

“I don’t think it’s designed as much for students as it is for out-of-town folks,” Patterson said.

Alcohol is not allowed on the buses, but small coolers are acceptable.

“The drivers will normally

let a personal cooler or something small on, but if you come up there with a huge cooler or something like that, they’re just not going to let you on with it,” Davis said.

“It takes up space, which allows less space for other people.”

While not directly affecting students, the service allows for a more comfortable gameday environment.

“The service helps with congestion around the stadium, helps with congestion around University Avenue and Gertrude Ford, and it’s just a way to move folks more efficiently,” Patterson said.

New director of Boys and Girls Club makes a smooth transition

Lamont Watkins recently moved to Oxford to become the new director of the Boys and Girls Club.

Watkins, who is originally from North Carolina, said he is excited about his new position and the potential of the club.

“This club has a lot of potential and I am excited about the opportunity to be a part of the growing process that is going to take place,” Watkins said.

DeAundra Vaughn, project coordinator of the club, said Watkins’ transition has been a smooth one.

“So far it has been great,” Vaughn said. “He has come in with new ideas. He gives us a new way of doing stuff — not stuck on the old.”

Vaughn admitted she was initially worried that there might be challenges with a new director since the club spent most of the summer without one.

“With his leadership style there hasn’t been one (challenge),” Vaughn said. “We worried if we were going to be able to get used to working under a new boss, but it has been easy.”

Growing up in Raleigh, Watkins was a member of the Raleigh Boys Club and then he began his career with the Boys and Girls Club in Mobile, Ala., as its physical education director.

“I moved to Alabama in 1993, (and while) pursuing my master’s degree, (I) worked with a minor league baseball team in Mobile,” Watkins said.

“Once that was over with, I really did want to move back

to North Carolina. I got in contact with a friend of mine who was one of the directors when I was growing up and he told me that the head director of the Boys and Girls Club when I was a child was now the executive director of the Mobile Boys and Girls Club.

I called, and we reconnected.

He had a job for me. That really started the ball rolling,” However, Watkins wasn’t initially sure if he wanted to work with children.

“I didn’t know if I wanted to do that,” he said. “Once I got involved and I saw the impact you can have on a young child’s life, I really enjoyed it.

When I went home for the day I thought I had accomplished something.”

Watkins said he has had a smooth transition into his new job because of his past experience. He has been a director for more than 13 years at different Boys and Girls Clubs.

“I really enjoy my job, and it is a big responsibility because the parents entrust their kids in your hands after school,” he said.

Today, Boys and Girls Clubs are located in all 50 states, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and on U.S. military installations across the world.

The Boys and Girls Club’s mission is to “inspire and enable all youth to realize their full potential as productive, responsible and caring citizens,” by offering after-school programs each week day, as well as summer programs.

Watkins said he believes the after-school program is valuable for the community and its future.

“What we must realize is that from after school to probably about five — that is when a lot of kids can get in trouble,” he said. “The Boys and Girls Club is a positive place and a safe place where kids can interact with each other.”

Watkins likes to remind parents that the Boys and Girls Club is for everyone. At age 6, a child can join the club and remain a member until he or she is a senior in high school.

Interested parents can stop by the club and pick up an application or call 662-832-0602.

New program hopes to manufacture excellence

QUINTIN WINSTINE | The Daily Mississippian

Ryan Miller, program manager, and Jim Vaughn, interim director, talk with Kristen Gaddis, freshman Center for Manufacturing Excellence team member.

BY ELLIE SCHMERLER ecschmer@gmail.com

The University of Mississippi’s Center for Manufacturing Excellence recently opened its doors to a small number of interested freshman and sophomore students.

The center is a product of several years of planning, construction and detail.

With a board that includes companies like NASA, Toyota and GE Aviation, the project was influenced by some of the greatest manufacturing companies in the U.S. The end product is a building with ad-

vanced technology and educational services that will provide students in an engineering major, as well as those majoring in business, accountancy and marketing, with skills that will allow them to compete with the best in the current job market.

Ken Cyree, dean of the School of Business, is extremely thrilled with the new integration of business and engineering programs the center creates.

“Through the process of designing and making a product coupled with how to finance, market and manage the operation, students learn in-depth and hands-on concepts,” he said.

Renée Ruminski, a junior marketing major from Chicago, expressed her enthusiasm in what the center offers business students.

“I’m really interested in the opportunity the Center of Manufacturing Excellence offers, especially the opportunity it provides for marketing majors like myself,” Ruminski said. “It will provide a handson experience that will in the end be extremely beneficial for business students, and I am really excited.”

Ryan Miller, the center’s program manager, emphasized the fact that with the integration of the business school and the center that business and accountancy students are going to start intermingling with engineering students, and soon they will start speaking each other’s language.

With a great strain on “traditional lectures, team building, breakout sessions and laboratory opportunities, students will be able to practice what we preach and get their hands dirty,” Miller said, refer-

ring to the 47,000 square feet the building encompasses and the 12,000 square-foot factory floor that is the center of the building.

Within the building are various classrooms and lecture rooms, two floors of student offices, a robotics laboratory and the factory floor where students will create a product, market it, sell it and have the profits returned to the center.

With its impressive architecture, equipment and teaching philosophy, the center is also allowing the university to move forward in its “green” initiative.

Many of the lights in the building are motion-sensored, and later in the year, the building will get more than 100 solar panels on the roof, which will provide power to many of the surrounding buildings on campus.

With the finishing touches being put in for the interior of the building, the exterior still has a few more weeks of construction to go before the building is completely finished, but a few unfinished brick walls will not stop the center from

progressing in this educational experience.

While waiting on only a few more manufacturing machines for the factory floor, students are already using the facilities and utilizing the classrooms, resources and classes offered by the center.

With these opportunities and relationships already established with manufacturing moguls, Miller will be the first to say how incredible the center is and that the “laboratory space and factory floor space are unique, one of a kind; you are not going to find these kinds of spaces anywhere else at an undergraduate level most likely in the nation.”

Cyree said he is equally excited about the future opportunities Ole Miss Students will gain from the program.

“The partnership between business, engineering and accountancy should be valuable for all involved and we are very excited about this opportunity for our students,” he said.

The center was funded the state in hopes of developing a program that dealt specifically with manufacturing.

“The humidity could be a factor for them,” Nutt said. “It has been one of the hottest summers to date. Once the game kicks off and the sun goes down, we will see. The humidity is definitely different.”

The Weekly Top Zen: Hurricane Bachmann

BY ANDY PAUL docgillis@gmail.com

PHOTOS BY PETRE THOMAS | The Daily Mississippian

TOP: Jacob Hickman, sophomore long snapper, talks about the fan’s cheers for this season and how important their support is to the players. BOTTOM: Students participate in a hula hoop contest during the pep-rally. The winner won two tickets to the Ole Miss/ BYU game Saturday and a sweatshirt.

Michele Bachmann claimed that God is urging Americans to vote Republican by way of Hurricane Irene and this week’s earthquake off the East Coast.

I’m sorry; I should have prefaced that with something, maybe given an amusing anecdote or the like to ease you into all that.

I spent a while trying to figure out something funny to say about it in, but in truth, I instead have come to the sad conclusion that Michele Bachmann is simply much better at comedy than me.

To recap, let me repeat verbatim what Bachmann said at a recent political rally in Florida: “I don’t know how much God has to do to get the attention of the politicians. We’ve had an earthquake; we’ve had a hurricane.

He said, ‘Are you going to start listening to me here?’ Listen to

the American people because the American people are roaring right now. They know government is on a morbid obesity diet, and we’ve got to rein in spending.”

So here’s what you all are probably thinking: “But Andy, I see no joke here. This is horrifically offensive, callous and absurd. Hurricane Irene had already claimed 42 deaths at the moment you remembered on Tuesday night that you had a column due the next day. The recent earthquake is responsible for millions of dollars of damage. How could any sane person seeking a presidential bid think this to be a good thing to say?”

To which I respond: First off, please, call me Mr. Paul. Show some respect; we’ve been over this before. And secondly, no, you clearly don’t understand.

Bachmann is telling a joke that obviously went right over your head. Just like the flood waters.

You see, Bachmann added a few days later, “Of course I was being humorous when I said that. It would be absurd to think it was anything else. I am a person who loves humor. I have a great sense of humor.”

Well, obviously. Now do you get it, you hyper-sensitive liberal elitists? She was making light of the natural disasters.

The past weekend has confirmed it for me, as it should for you. Michele Bachmann has entered this political race in an Andy Kaufman-esque character disguise. She is holding a mirror up to society and saying, “Look, look how gullible, angry and scared the American public is.

You have every right to be upset with your government and demand a radical overhaul of policy in Washington. But make sure your anger and fright don’t lead you into the hands of soulless, opportunistic politicians like the one I am portraying purely for yuks.

“Good thing you have me, Michele Bachmann, comedic genius and champion of the downtrodden, to show you just how terrible this new political spin movement is.”

In this age of hipster irony and meta-commentary on just about everything, it’s good to see some old-fashioned comedy lighten up this already heated and dirty presidential race. God bless you, Michele Bachmann.

Volleyball continues road trip with Louisville tournament

BY MATT SIGLER mcsigler@olemiss.edu

This weekend the Ole Miss volleyball team continues its season-opening road trip and travels to Louisville for its second tournament of the year, the Crowne Plaza Cardinal Classic.

The Rebels (0-2) are coming off a tough weekend at the Burnt Orange Classic in Austin, Texas, where they faced three top-notch teams, including the Israeli National team in an exhibition.

“I think we came out and opened up very good,” head coach Joe Getzin said. “The Israeli National team is ranked 50th in the world, and we played well throughout the match and executed well.”

The Rebels opened up the season against the Israeli National Team last Friday and took the match in three sets; 25-23, 25-15, 25-15. The Rebels were led by sophomore

Kara Morgan, who had a career-high of 11 kills and also added 10 digs in the match.

The Rebels then opened the regular season last Saturday with a four-set loss to No. 4 Texas, a Final Four participant last season.

“Against Texas, we went four sets and played competitively in sets one through three,” Getzin said. “We just lost focus and ran out of gas in the fourth.”

Ole Miss finished the tournament later that day, falling to Pepperdine in three straight sets.

“We didn’t play bad against Pepperdine,” Getzin said. “We just didn’t respond to what they were doing.”

The slate doesn’t get easier with Louisville, Wichita State and Eastern Illinois all on the schedule for the Ole Miss volleyball team this weekend.

Soccer takes undefeated record on the road

BY JAKE THOMPSON jcthomps@olemiss.edu

Fresh off their first 3-0 start since 2005, the Rebels take their undefeated record to Auburn, Ala., for a pair of tough road games this Labor Day weekend.

These 270 minutes of shutout defense, led by reigning SEC Defensive Player of the Week senior goalkeeper Alley Ronaldi, were the longest since the first three games of the 2003 season.

“Alley is playing great,” Mott said. “She is in great form and (has) really taken that leadership role back there, and she is really on her game right now.”

In the first game this weekend, the opponent is Wright State, followed by the headliner of the weekend slate, No. 9 Duke, in Sunday’s matchup.

The Raiders of Wright State (3-1) enter the tournament coming off a close loss to nationally-ranked Ohio State last Sunday.

Wright State has allowed only three goals this season, and head coach Matt Mott will not be looking forward to the Duke game, knowing it will be a tough one.

“Wright State is a very well-

coached team,” Mott said.

“They have six seniors and a great goalkeeper, so we are going to have to be at our best Friday night.

They will be dangerous and very organized. They don’t give up a lot of goals. They’re going to be a team where we have to be at our best to perform against them.”

After an upset victory over then-No. 1 Notre Dame, the Duke Blue Devils (4-0) are ranked No. 9 in the NSCAA Coaches’ Poll and No. 5 in the Soccer America Poll.

A Final 16 team last season, Duke has allowed only one goal through in its first four games.

Coach Mott knows this is a huge game and a great opportunity for his team.

“It’s a lot of fun to play against a team like that and to really measure yourself of where we are at this stage of the season,” Mott said.

The players also know this is an important and challenging weekend for the team.

“We are really excited,” sophomore forward Erin Emerson said. “They are both good teams. We are playing and it will be good competition for us.”

VOLLEYBALL, continued from page 8

different to the table and should be a tough match for the Rebels.

“We scheduled against good teams,” Getzin said. “We’re going to have to keep playing good teams to be at this level.”

The Rebels have had a short week after having Monday off.

Getzin said their first day was mainly focused on individual skills, while day two was spent on scouting and film study.

However, he was outspoken about one thing the Rebels must do to have continued success: “We have got to do a better job at getting more kills,” he said. “I was hoping we would have had more than we did.”

The outlook for the Crowne Plaza Cardinal Classic appears to be challenging for Getzin and the Rebels.

“It is Louisville’s home opener,” he said. “They have

9.2.11

| T H E D A I LY M I S S I S S I P P I A N | PA G E 1 1

a new coach — it is her first home match — and she is what you could call a Louisville ‘prodigy.’ They will be an amped up and talented team and once again another top 25 team for us.”

Wichita State has been to four-straight NCAA Tournaments and was picked to finish second in the Missouri Valley Conference this year, but Getzin adds that the Rebels cannot take their other opponent this weekend, Eastern Illinois, lightly.

Although the season is young, senior Morgan Springer has emerged as one of the leaders on the team and looks to lead the team this weekend.

“Morgan Springer has exemplified what hard work can do,” Getzin said.

“She was named the best libero in the Texas tournament and has had a great week of practice this week.

She also has a little extra motivation since Louisville is her hometown.”

The Rebels will begin play

ers are two seniors, two juniors and a sophomore who played in six games last season. Starting quarterback Jake Heaps is incredibly talented, but if Ole Miss can generate a pass rush against a very good offensive line, the Rebels have a chance to create a few turnovers and prevent Heaps from getting into a rhythm.

2. Get Brunetti in a rhythm early Ole Miss is going to be able to run the football with running backs Brandon Bolden, Jeff Scott and Enrique Davis, and a veteran offensive line; however, if Ole Miss can get Barry Brunetti into a rhythm early throw-

perienced starters and reserves, the Rebels need to control the ball on offense and not force the defense to make stops on a short field after turnovers. If the Rebels are careless and commit turnovers, Heaps and company will take advantage.

4. Keep an eye on JJ Di Luigi Much of the attention has been paid to quarterback Jake Heaps, but Di Luigi is what really makes the Cougar offense go. He led BYU in rushing yards and was second in receiving yards last year as a junior. Di Luigi racked up over 1,300 total yards and nine touchdowns for the season, so Ole Miss will need to contain him Saturday.
