The Associated Student Body Senate passed a resolution Tuesday requesting three new elevators in the Stockard Residence Hall. Sophomore Senator Michael Howell began working on the resolution as a freshman. “I was actually the Stockard senator,” Howell said. “So (the elevators were) the main concern with most of my constituents. The elevators (were) always malfunctioning and being very unsafe, and so, we knew that we had to do something about that.” Howell said when he lived in Stockard, residents experienced a number of inconveniences related to the malfunctioning elevators. “I know (the elevators were) a major problem for me when I was there,” Howell said. “People would always get to class late. They would get stuck in the elevators. It would skip your
floors. It was just very inconvenient, so we want to do what we can to kind of help someone’s Ole Miss experience.” Howell has continued working on the resolution this school year. He said he has spoken with current Stockard residents who express the same concerns about the elevators. “I’ve spoken to a few in passing,” Howell said. “They say that the elevators are just as bad as they’ve always been, if not worse.” Howell said he has spoken with employees from The University of Mississippi Housing Department about the issue. “I’ve spoken to different CA’s and different people in housing, and they’ve all said that the elevators would be fixed over different breaks in the school year, and things like that, and we haven’t seen any actions being taken, and they’re just constantly being worked on and fixed all the time, but we think

Ole Miss honored as bicycle friendly university
LIBBY GERSTNER

The League of American Bicyclists has named The University of Mississippi an honorable mention on its list of Bike Friendly Universities, which distinguishes the university’s efforts in promoting biking on campus. In order to receive this honorable mention, a group consisting of students, faculty and staff submitted an application, according to Sara Douglass, post-baccalaureate fellow in the Office of Sustainability. Douglass says the group who submitted the application along with her department and the Parking & Transportation department will continue to oversee projects that will continue to improve bike culture on campus. “I have already noticed more bikes on campus this semester as compared to the spring semester, which is great,” Douglass said. “I think the increase in the number of people biking on campus can be attributed to the limited number of commuter spots and
the opening of the Ole Miss Bike Shop.” The Ole Miss Bike Shop, located next to Kennon Observatory, is run by Parking and Transportation Services and offers repair assistance and serves as the location to rent bicycles for the semester through Rebel Pedals, also a parking and transportation initiative. Mike Harris, director of parking and transportation, believes the effort to promote biking on campus serves two purposes. “It is important to see this as a win, win. You not only have the benefits of being healthier and more active while riding the bike, you also have the added benefit of a reliable and convenient transportation mode,” Harris said. As they continue to expand in areas such as Rebel Pedels from 100 to 175 bicycles for rent, both Harris and Douglass have acknowledged a need to educate drivers and bicycle riders about safety. “Some may come from areas
that have a vibrant bicycle culture and understand the complexities of sharing the road and proper signaling techniques, while others may have never been exposed to this type of transportation,” Harris said. Both departments, along with the Parking and Traffic committee and University Communications are working together to produce a pamphlet, which would cover everything from bike safety to registering your bike, according to Sara Douglass. Regular bike rider and junior, Gracie Sullivan, appreciates the luxury of biking to class in order to avoid parking issues, but also has these same safety concerns. “The worst part is at stop signs. I have come close to getting hit a ton of times, but that was mostly my fault. Most of the drivers are nice,” Sullivan said. As the university continues to expand bicycle initiatives and education, both departments anticipate less stressful parking experiences, more safe riding and less carbon emissions a week.

Sportsmanship and the success of Quon BRICE ASHFORD
bkashford@go.olemiss.edu
Upon taking the shuttle after the game, I met an Auburn fan who was also extremely concerned with the health of Ole Miss wide receiver Laquon Treadwell. “Do you know what happened to the young man on the field?” he asked. We then engaged in a conversation about the importance of sportsmanship. I was highly satisfied that the first thing that came out of his mouth was concern for another person. It was clear it was not important whether the ball crossed the plane, nor who won the game. The importance lied in the health and wellbeing of a fellow human being. My only hope was that Ole Miss and Auburn fans alike would also take a moment to forget about the game and extend a sense of respect and sportsmanship toward one another. Sports writer Geoff Ketchum was quoted tweeting, “Man, the people of Oxford haven’t been this despondently heartbroken since public schools were segregated.” I would like to note the irrelevance between segregation and THE DAILY

Saturday’s football game. The state of Mississippi has exhibited leaps and bounds to attempt to end this sort of negative publicity. I’m not saying all of our problems have been resolved; I personally can attest that they surely have not. Racial issues, however, should be left where racial issues are concerned. Why not take that time to extend a prayer, or show respect and grief for your fellow man? I absolutely love the way Athletic Director Ross Bjork responded: “Have you ever been to Oxford & met our people, looked them in the eye, & understand what we are all about? You have no clue.” I could not agree with him more. This town and this university are not to be targeted. As a student of this university, I would like to stand face to face with these insensitive, inhumane individuals. They could clearly use a lesson in civility. Another tweet floating around the Twitterverse this weekend stated, “Not feeling sorry at all for Laquon Treadwell after what happened to Kenyan Drake. #karmaisab****.” To quote AD Bjork, “You have no clue.” Laquon Treadwill was not re-

sponsible for the Kenyan Drake injury in any way, nor is celebrating the injury of any man honorable. Personally, I have seen enough foolishness. The “Opelika-Auburn News” headline dawned the headline “Finding a Way” with a photograph of Treadwell’s injury displayed beneath it. I have read comment after comment defending the publication. I personally believe it exhibits poor taste. The headline alone is not an issue. After all, the Tigers undoubtedly found a way to win, including a scoring drive consisting of twelve men on the field. It is the combination of the picture and the headline that displays poor taste, poor planning or both. There were other defining moments that sealed the win for the Tigers, such as the fumble recovery. The paper has released an editorial justifying its publication. This is undoubtedly inappropriate. I understand celebrating a large win, but that wasn’t the the way to do it. Whether it was intentional or not, it was simply disrespectful. The value of sportsmanship extends beyond sports. It is a reflection of the discipline and home training you received upon being

brought up. It also speaks volumes about your intuitive sense of respect and humanity. The game goes beyond the lines for these players; it becomes a reflection of self, a way to honor their families, their schools and their communities. There are many factors of the game that are more important than the scoreboard. Specifically speaking, character is one of those factors. The same can be said about the fans. I honestly could not care less whether the ball crossed the plane. I do not care what the scoreboard displayed. What I do care about is decency and respect, not only between the players on the field, but also between the fans in the stands and in living rooms across America. The health of student-athletes nationwide should be the primary point of focus for every student and fan alike. My prayers go out to Laquon Treadwell, his family and his many Rebel brothers.

continued from page 1 that all new elevators would be a better solution,” Howell said. Howell said the Housing Department previously ordered new elevators. The elevators were recalled after an incident at the University of Tennessee where the same brand of elevators dropped seven floors with passengers inside. Senator Grace Sullivan said she supported the resolution and was pleased with how it was written. “It’s definitely something I’m in favor of,” Sullivan said. “I always want to make sure we’re just precise, especially when we’re dealing with a department of the university like housing, you know, I don’t want it to sound like we’re demanding something of them or being condescending to them, but I think as Senator Howell explained, I think it’s written in a way that voices our opinion without forcing something on them.” Senator John Brahan also voted for the resolution. Although he voted to pass the resolution, he expressed concern over the reality of the replacement occurring. “Basically, I think it’s a really good idea in concept, whether or not it’s feasible for Student Housing to go through with it, we don’t know,” Brahan said. Howell said the elevators run from $15,000 to $50,000. He said the resolution is meant to show the department and administrators that Stockard residents would like to see these changes take place. “It’s showing the Housing Department as well as the chancellor that as a student body, we take this issue very seriously,” Howell said. “We think that it needs to be acted upon because these elevators have gone on far too long being as unsafe as they are, and we need to see some change.” The ASB Senate passed the resolution with unanimous consent.
Voters elect GOP Sen. Cochran to 7th term JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — Mississippi Republican Thad Cochran has won a seventh term in the U.S. Senate after enduring a primary that was the toughest challenge of his political career and a general election in which he rarely acknowledged his Democratic opponent. Unofficial results show the 76-year-old former chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee defeated two challengers Tuesday — Democratic former U.S. Rep. Travis Childers and Reform Party candidate Shawn O’Hara. All four of Mississippi’s U.S. House members also were re-elected Tuesday, for two-year terms. Democratic Rep. Bennie Thompson was first elected in 1993 in the 2nd District, which encompasses the Delta and most of the capital city of Jackson. Republican Rep. Gregg Harper won the central 3rd District seat in 2008. Republican Reps. Alan Nunnelee in the northern 1st District and Steven Palazzo in the southern 4th District were elected in 2010. Cochran was first elected to the U.S. House in 1972 and won his first six-year term in the Senate in 1978. He waited until late last year to announce he was seeking re-election, weeks after a tea party-backed state senator, Chris McDaniel, had entered the race and lined up financial support from groups that sought to unseat longtime Republicans.
McDaniel led Cochran and one other Republican candidate in the June 3 primary. But Cochran rallied and defeated McDaniel by 7,667 votes in a runoff three weeks later. McDaniel never conceded. Instead, he filed a lawsuit claiming the runoff results were tainted by voting irregularities. A circuit judge dismissed the lawsuit, saying it was filed too late. The state Supreme Court upheld the dismissal on Oct. 24. Some Mississippi voters said Tuesday that they had moved past the bitter Republican primary and were ready to send Cochran back to Washington. Others said it was time to give someone else a chance. Bryon Rushing, 51, of Forest, said he voted for Childers — the first time he had voted for a Democrat. Rushing, who’s self-employed, said he backed McDaniel in the Republican primary. “This country has to get back to the root conservative principles, but I could not vote for Thad Cochran,” Rushing said after voting Tuesday at the Scott County Courthouse. “I didn’t like the way he turned to Democrats to take the GOP runoff.” Susan Ross, 62, of Madison, manager of a medical office, said she voted for Cochran because she’s unhappy with the direction of the country under President Barack Obama. She said she is particularly dissatisfied with the health overhaul
that Obama signed into law in 2010. “I really think we’re headed toward a socialistic problem,” Ross said after voting at First Presbyterian Church in Madison. Ross said she believes Cochran’s seniority helps Mississippi. “I just think we need him in there. We need the Republican leadership,” Ross said. Sherrita Bryant, 25, of Jack-
son, who works at the Nissan plant in Canton, voted for Childers because she was raised in a family of Democrats. Bryant said she believes the Senate is dominated by people who only care about the wealthy. “The people need to have a voice,” said Bryant, who voted at Faith Presbyterian Church in Jackson. “I want to know: What can they do? What can they agree on? It affects us as a whole.”

Album Review: ‘1989’ ELLIE BOND
mebond1@go.olemiss.edu
COURTESY: BIG MACHINE RECORDS
Girls across the world could be heard rejoicing last Tuesday as the highly anticipated fifth album by Taylor Swift finally hit the stands. The oncecountry-darling-turned-popsensation has done it again with her new album, “1989,” leaving dreamy-eyed teens and lovesick ladies longing for that lost flame. Heavily synthesized with catchy pop beats and dripping with glossy contemporary ballads, “1989” is the epitome of Swift. Named after her year of birth, Taylor Swift’s latest creation mixes ’80s pop with electronic drops reminiscent of her fourth album “Red.” After the release of her first single “Shake It Off,” it was abundantly clear that the
ringlet-curled Taylor Swift of 2006 was gone for good and replaced by the confident and cool pop princess of today. In typical Swift fashion, “1989” tackles an array of subjects ranging from nasty breakups and heartaches to living comfortably in your own skin. But for those skeptical of the new and improved Swift, never fear. Taylor may have shed her Nashville background, but the same message can still be heard loud and clear. Lyrically, Swift stays true to her oh-so relatable and incredibly provocative songwriting, creating a modern day fairytale of an album. Although Swift’s country roots are only a distant memory in this new album, the “Tear Drops on My Guitar” era Taylor Swift still shines through
on a few of her latest tracks for all of the first album fans. Taylor Swift’s ascension into the pop scene is perfectly mirrored in her third single and first track on “1989,” “Welcome to New York.” Telling the story of her move from Nashville to New York City, Swift’s catchy tune outlines her new beginning in the Big Apple and the thrill of being in an exciting new place. With light-hearted lyrics and plenty of electronic riffs, this first track serves as a pristine opener into the rest of “1989.” The remaining twelve tracks stick pretty close to Swift’s favorite topics: loss, love and all things in between. Since her latest breakup with One Direction heartthrob Harry Styles in early 2013, Swift has had plenty of time to reflect on past loves, cleverly placing many of these musings into her razor-sharp lyrics. “’Cause, darling, I’m a nightmare dressed like a daydream,” teased Swift in her captivating confessional “Blank Space.” Breaking down the barriers between artist and listener, Swift honestly croons about her reoccurring issues with choosing the bad bay and often being pegged as the dating disaster. And the ever-so popular and smash hit “Shake It Off” was a godsend to Swift fans as it was the first single released from the new album. Showing a more playful and self-assured side to the artist, “Shake It Off” is Swift’s anthem to the ‘haters’ and proves that the new Swift is fearless in every sense of the word. The real gems of “1989” appear near the end of the album. “Band-Aids don’t fix bullet holes. You say sorry just for show,” sang Swift as she wove a tale of betrayal and heartache in her anthem “Bad Blood.” Probably the most relatable of all the wonders on her thirteen-track album, “Bad Blood” will be sung angrily by wronged ex-girlfriends during night drives for generations to come. The fantasy-like ballad “Wildest Dreams” stands alone among the rest and takes listeners on a trip through the ethereal imagination of Swift, chronicling the love between two romantics comparable to that of a film. “Say you’ll see me again, even if it’s in your wildest dreams,” sang Swift, as she fashioned a story of longing and desire. The votes have been cast and the verdict is in: Taylor Swift can do no wrong and “1989” is the proof. Swift has a long career ahead of her, and fans will not be left wanting with the sensation that is “1989” to keep them company.

UM Theatre presents ‘All New People’ ASHTON DAWES
aedawes@go.olemiss.edu
There are long and complex plays that keep the audience on the edge of its seat or eyebrows furrowed in confusion, but some are funny and open, telling a story with no additional fanfare. Ghostlight Repertory Theatre’s production of “All New People” fits in the latter category. The play is comedic despite its confrontation of serious topics. “’All New People,’ at its heart, is about four strangers coming together in a beach house, connecting and butting heads along the way,” director and sophomore Zach Duane said. “All New People” takes place on an island off the coast of New Jersey in the living room of a house that none of the characters have a claim to in terms of ownership. The story follows the process of a lonely man slowly warming up to the three other characters who force their way into his life. This production marks Duane’s directorial debut. He said the experience of directing is very different from “being directed.” “I’ve had to think through a lot of things that I wouldn’t have to as an actor,” Duane said. “I feel a greater level of artistic input as a director than as an actor.” The show “All New People” is only 80 minutes long, but the audience will be faced with the importance of friendship, a scare with suicide and all sorts of sexual innuendos. At first, one might be concerned with some of the more sensitive topics of the play, but Duane assured it is all the more reason to come. “I actually picked this play because it helped me out of a dark time,” Duane said. “It makes it easier for people to understand those who are in bad situations without being oppressive.” Duane is not the only one making his debut. Actor Nathan Reed, freshman in the Ole Miss Theatre Department, will be performing for the first time on a university stage. Reed will play the main protagonist, a character named Charlie.

British woman trying to obtain her green card, and Karen Ann Patti who will be playing Kim, an escort. A few other actors join them in videos that are interspersed throughout the show, combing both video and live action. Scenic designer Chris Marzella was pleased with the outcome of the production. “I think we’ve really got a show,” Marzella said. “Come and see it,” Duane said, inviting everyone to enjoy in the cast and crew’s hard work. “It’s going to be great.” Tickets are $8 and can be purchased at allnewpeople. brownpapertickets.com. “All New People” will be performed today through Friday at 7:30 p.m. and again at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Sunday.
Nathan Reed and Deja Samuel rehearse “All New People.” The show will run today through Friday with additional performances Sunday. “With this being my first play, I’ve got to say I’m a bit nervous going into it,” Reed said. “I ended up just kind of falling into the cast. It’s a really great creative environment.” After praising his fellow cast members and the crew, Reed emphasized how much he liked working on “All New People.” “I’m really excited to show it to everybody,” Reed said. His fellow actor, Charlie Allen, a sophomore at Ole Miss, agreed. “It’s a very interesting show,”
Allen said. “The characters really change and develop in that time. My character starts off as kind of macho, but he’s more layered than that. It’s his insecurities that make him a kind of antagonist in the show; but as he develops, he begins to see that the other character’s, even with their problems, are people too.” Allen is playing the second male lead, a character named Myron.

It was a battle at South Carolina, but Tennessee got their first SEC win of the season 45-42. Sophomore quarterback Joshua Dobbs passed for 301 yards with two scores and one interception and rushed for 166 yards on 24 carries and three touchdowns. He may be the spark the offense was missing.

Head coach Will Muschamp may have saved his job for one more season with the win over rival Georgia. The rushing attack exploded for almost 450 yards, which sealed the victory, even though freshman quarterback Treon Harris only passed the ball six times. At Vanderbilt and home against South Carolina are the next two games.

Arkansas almost picked up their first SEC win of the season. It almost happened against the number one team in the country on the road. The running game was not what it used to be, only rushing for 193 yards. The defense forced three turnovers, which kept them in the game. A bye week is next, then LSU at home.

That’s three wins in a row for the defending SEC East champs. Sophomore quarterback Maty Mauk got back on track and led the Tigers to a 20-10 victory over Kentucky. The Missouri defense held Kentucky to just 2-16 on third down. A bye week is up for Missouri, then a trip to College Station to face reeling Texas A&M.

If you give Nick Saban an extra week to prepare for one opponent, he will most likely win that game, the exception being against Ole Miss this season. The bye week came before the Crimson Tide travel to Baton Rouge to face rival LSU Saturday night. The last time Alabama played at Death Valley at night, they won.
Who saw that coming? The Bulldogs laid an egg in Jacksonville against Florida and lost 38-20. The defense gave up over 400 rushing yards to Florida and struggled to find consistency running the ball against the Florida defense. Georgia needs a win at Kentucky Saturday in order to stay atop the SEC East race.

With Ole Miss’ loss to Auburn, LSU has a puncher’s chance to make a run for the SEC. With a bye week between Ole Miss and their game this weekend at home against Alabama, the Tigers could make a statement in the SEC West if they pull off back-to-back upsets in Death Valley. This is a telling weekend for Les Miles’ squad.

It was a case of adding injury to insult for the Rebels. Losing a potential playoff elimination game was gut wrenching, but losing wide receiver Laquon Treadwell to a gruesome leg injury is worse. After not surrendering more than 20 points all season on defense, the Rebels gave up 35 to Auburn. Ole Miss is still mathematically alive for the SEC crown, but it will take a lot of luck.

continued from page 8 McFarland, who is now playing professional basketball in Romania. With eight newcomers to the team, head coach Matt Insell believes that the new point guards will be the most important addition to the club. “Freshmen (guards) Toree Thompson and A’Queen Hayes are having to replace a very good player in Valencia McFarland,” Insell said. “And so you’re asking two freshmen to be what Valencia was as one, and so hopefully, they can do that.” Another notable newcomer is Oxford native and Murray State sophomore transfer guard Erica Sisk, who will add athleticism and length to the shooting guard position. “I like her athleticism running the floor out on the perimeter, and I like that she will be the point for us defensively,” Insell said. Ole Miss returns senior power forward Tia Faleru, who led the Rebels in scoring (16.4) and rebounding (9.4) last season. Insell believes that she has improved in a variety of ways over the offsea-
son. “She has improved in the mental aspect of the game, how she approaches practice and how she approaches film sessions,” Insell said. “Tia (last year) had a great year, but one thing I told her she had to get better at if she wants to be a professional is to learn how to approach the game mentally and learn more about the game, and she’s done that. She’s starting to see different things about her game and how people are guarding her.” Junior guard Gracie Frizzell adds much needed shooting to the roster but also added more to her game over the offseason. “Last year, I was just seen as a shooter, and coach challenged me to expand my game a little bit,” Frizzell said. ”I’ve worked on getting stronger and getting better defensively, so hopefully, I’ll be able to impact the team that way.” Closing out games remained a problem last season for the Rebels, and Insell wants that to change this season. In multiple heartbreaking efforts, the Rebels lost four games last season by three or less points. “We were playing really well last year. We went back this offseason, with our present team and showed them six or

Replacing Treadwell the focus of Tuesday’s practice CODY THOMASON
csthoma1@go.olemiss.edu
After Tuesday’s practice, the focus was still the injury to sophomore Laquon Treadwell and how the team would be affected without him at the wide receiver spot. Senior receiver Vince Sanders and sophomore receiver Quincy Adeboyejo talked about what they could do in Treadwell’s absence and how it affected them. “We just went in there and tried to fill his void the best that we could and just went out there and gave it our all trying to give it our all every day at practice,” Adeboyejo said. The passing game mostly revolved around Treadwell, who would consistently get the ball on screens and short passes in order for him to make a play in open field. Adeboyejo talked about how the offense had changed due to Treadwell’s absence. “In our three receiver formation, they have me mainly in the slot, basically where (junior) Cody Core was, and moved Cody Core to the outside basically just to step up in that position,” Adeboyejo said. Adeboyejo has been held without a catch over the last three games, with his last catch coming

Head coach Hugh Freeze watches on during practice Tuesday. on the road at Texas A&M. The injury to Treadwell will open it up for receivers like Adeboyejo to step up and make plays. Adeboyejo also said the injury gave him extra motivation to perform well. “Laquon is going to be rooting for us as much as he can,” Adeboyejo said. “Just to have him out, it just makes you want to go out there and just do it for him
and this team, to just do anything we can to help this thing keep going.” Treadwell was a huge part of the offense, leading the team with 48 catches for 632 yards and six touchdowns. While Sanders and Adebojeyo have both had good seasons – Sanders with 33 catches for 536 yards and four touchdowns and Adeboyejo with 13 catches for 185 yards and two
touchdowns – they’ve both benefitted from how much opposing secondarys key in on Treadwell. “Laquon, he’s a great player, so of course, you know they’re going to have a safety and their best corner on him and that gives guys like me and Cody (Core) and Quincy (Adeboyejo) more opportunities to make plays, and I love it, but he’s gone, so now, we just have to adapt,” Sanders said.
Sanders talked about the opportunity the younger guys will get and expressed his excitement for that opportunity. “I’m curious to see how it will be on Saturdays,” Sanders said. “He gets most of the attention from the defenses, so I’ve got to get used to it, and Cody and Quincy and (freshman) Markell (Pack) have to get used to getting more attention from the defense.” Sanders felt he was up to the challenge of defenses sending extra help his way. “I’m actually excited to get this opportunity to be in this position,” Sanders said. “I hate I got it the way I got it, but now, that I have it, I have to take it in stride and make the best out of it.” Adeboyejo also addressed the upcoming game against Presbyterian, a topic that has been somewhat lost with the recent loss to Auburn and injury to Treadwell. “Coach has told us that our opponent is Presbyterian, and that even though, we’re playing them, we have to treat practice the same as if we were playing Auburn or LSU at the end of the week,” Adeboyejo said. “So, we’re just going to keep going in practice and just continue to try and better ourselves as a team in every aspect.”

The Ole Miss men’s and women’s basketball seasons are just around the corner as they will both host exhibition games Friday night. The women will play Christian Brothers University out of Memphis at 5 p.m., while the men will take on Delta State at 7 p.m. The men’s team is coming off a disappointing 20132014 campaign, where they finished with a 19-14 overall record, going 9-9 in SEC play and failed to make the NCAA Tournament or the NIT.

Rebels lost sharpshooter Marshall Henderson over the summer, who is now playing professional basketball in Qatar. Head coach Andy Kennedy said he will allow Bob Cousy Award Watch List member senior guard Jarvis Summers to have more control of the offense with Henderson gone. “We’ll put the ball in Jarvis’ hands and let him make a lot of reads,” Kennedy said. “We’re going to play to the strengths of this team.” With Summers penciled in as the only starter, Kennedy says that there’s a lot competition for the remaining startPLEASE DRINK RESPONSIBLY
ing spots. “The other four spots change day-to-day, and we’ll continue to mix and match until we find the right group,” Kennedy said. “There’s the least amount of separation between the first unit and the second unit.” Last season, some of the Rebels’ biggest deficiencies were rebounding and scoring in the paint. This year, coach Kennedy believes that Ole Miss should be much better in those areas. “We feel that we’ve gotten a little bit better low-post presence. (Sophomore forward Sebastian) Saiz and (sophomore center Dwight) Coleby have both taken that next step,” Kennedy said. “We’re still trying to create angles to throw it close where we can be able to score.”
That production most assuredly will have to come from Coleby, who Kennedy believes has shown a lot of progress in fall practices. “I think Dwight has made the biggest step forward physically and, from an endurance standpoint, is able to sustain things longer,” Kennedy said. “He was probably our most productive guy from a rim-protection standpoint and as well as rebounding the ball at the rate we’re going to need.” The Rebels welcome five new faces to the team this season with junior college transfer guards Roderick Lawrence and Stefan Moody, Tennessee State transfer senior forward M.J. Rhett, U.T. Martin transfer senior guard Terence Smith and freshman forward Marcanvis Hymon. Kennedy
doesn’t see chemistry as an issue with this new group. “When you bring in two post grads (Rhett and Smith), and two junior college kids (Lawrence and Moody), you expect a little bit more of a maturity level,” Kennedy said. “We really haven’t had any issues so far as it relates to fitting all the pieces together.” With all of the new faces, the media projected the Rebels to finish sixth in the conference at SEC Media Days last month. The Ole Miss Women’s Basketball Team is coming off a rebuilding season where they finished with a 12-20 overall record, going 2-1 in SEC play. This season won’t get any easier as the Rebels lost starting point guard Valencia
