Kelly’s competitive drive made him one of the best BRIAN SCOTT RIPPEE thedmsports@gmail.com
Ten months ago, Chad Kelly stood on a makeshift stage in New Orleans on the field at the Superdome. As a red and blue mist of confetti rained down on the then-junior quarterback and the greatest Ole Miss team in nearly a half century, the booming voice of ESPN’s Joe Tessitore echoed off of the building’s walls. “I tell you one guy that made the most of his opportunity,” Tessitore said. “As for the most outstanding player, Jay Batt you have the honors, Allstate Sugar Bowl executive committee. The most outstanding player of the
Allstate Sugar Bowl is Ole Miss quarterback Chad Kelly.” The remaining Ole Miss crowd of more than 20,000 roared as Kelly raised the trophy with the red and blue celebratory scraps of paper showering down around him. His 302 yards and 4 touchdowns had landed him on this stage. But in the grand scheme of things, Tessitore summed it up perfectly: Kelly had made the most of his opportunity. He arrived Ole Miss a year prior to that moment lugging a set of baggage behind him and stared at questions in front of him. Who was this kid? A gunslinger with a fiercely competitive drive that often times spurned anger, and had done him more trouble than
good to this point. With stops at Clemson, East Mississippi Community College and most recently a hiccup outside of a bar in his hometown of Buffalo that nearly derailed his college career one final time, Kelly was a guy working with his last chance. He arrived in Oxford skating on thin ice. He said repeatedly that he wanted to rewrite his story. Tack on the fact that he was poised to enter into a three-way quarterback battle with two guys who had been in the program for two years already, Kelly had a full plate. Ole Miss had built a solid ship with one of the nation’s top

Pipeline protesters are making a difference
MIKALA TURNER
thedmopinion@gmail.com
It seems as if humans are naturally narrow-minded, tending to look out only for ourselves a great percentage of the time. Big businesses such as Energy Transfer Partners, who are currently trying to finalize the Dakota Access pipeline that threatens the livelihood of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North Dakota, are an example
of a group that embodies this selfish quality. If you have not heard about the Dakota Access pipeline debacle, let me explain it to you. In late August 2016, members of the Sioux Tribe blocked invading machinery which were there to begin construction of an oil pipeline in an area near the tribe’s reservation. The tribe’s deviance was driven by the fact that they believe the pipeline would poison the reservation’s water supply, and it was being built on ancient Native American burial grounds. It has also recently come to light that the original plan for the pipeline directed it toward a predominantly caucasian neighborhood, but “suddenly” the plan changed and focused on the area near the reservation. Celebrities like Leonardo

DiCaprio and Shailene Woodley have been giving the protest mass amounts of attention in the last two months, but tensions between authorities and protesters have recently become violent. What was a peaceful protest now can be considered to be at a boiling point, and tensions between police, the tribe and their supporters are not getting any better. I am simply perplexed that this is even an issue. Safety of resources and sacredness of a burial ground are not things that one should have to fight for. Yet, we have big business owners saying the tribe is simply overreacting. The argument against the Sioux Tribe is that they should have no say in what is done with the property because it was purchased legally by Energy Transfer Partners. Should that matter? We are

talking about spiking a water source for an entire reservation and desiccating a burial ground. Does legality trump ethical reasoning now? I would like to sit here and tell you that we can change these “big bosses’” minds, because the truth of the matter is they could not care less about the people being affected by the pipeline and what tragedies this may cause them. To think that the tribe would just stand by and let this happen was extremely narrow-minded of Energy Transfer Partners, and I am personally very glad that these people are standing up to them. They are the pebble that created a ripple, which will eventually become a wave. #IStandWithStandingRock

Rebel Patrol offers escort service for students
ASHLEY THUSIUS
althusiu@go.olemiss.edu
With finals week looming, many students will be making trips to and from the library late at night. Rebel Patrol, an extension of the University Police Department’s Crime Prevention Program, offers walk-along escorts to students who are concerned about traveling alone on campus, especially at night. Captain of Support Operations Thelma L. Curry oversees Rebel Patrol. Curry said the service provides a sense of security to students who may be anxious to walk around campus after dark, especially long distances, such as to the parking lots. Escorts are also available to walk with students to Campus Walk. “It’s basically just walking along with somebody for company and making sure everything is OK,” Curry said. “We are there if they need us, and we want to do it, because we don’t want folks to feel unsafe walking alone.” The department has hired escorts to be placed at various areas around campus. “Basically, when they encounter somebody, they ask if they’d like to be escorted to their residence hall or the park-
ing lot,” Curry said. “I hire students to do this. They come in at various hours, and at night I have more on than others.” Students can identify escorts by their lime green vests labeled “Rebel Patrol”. Students may also call UPD at 662-915-7234 for an escort, and officers are available to provide on-campus escorts when students are not on duty. “Some people take advantage of the service, while others just say ‘No, I’m OK,’” Curry said. “We are there if they need us.” Senior computer science major Jesse Sullivan said the service is a good opportunity for students to take safety precautions. “It’s a very effective tool that all students should consider and shouldn’t just shove aside because they are ‘tough enough,’” Sullivan said. “Back when I was a freshman and living on campus, the Rebel Patrol was in its earlier phases, and I didn’t get very much of a chance to take advantage of it, but I’ve seen and heard of it being used more, which is great.” Rebel Patrol is designed to operate predominately at night, but students may call UPD for an escort at any time. Escorts are typically located close to entrances and exits. Common stations are residence halls,

Curry said Rebel Patrol tries to station the escorts around where a lot of students go to work on different projects and assignments. The service operates in the evening from 7:30 p.m. to midnight and is planning to start
earlier, when the time falls back for daylight savings and it gets darker sooner. “It’s a program that we want students to take full advantage of,” Curry said. “You can very easily call us and not have to be by yourself.”

Sunflower Bean brings their dreamy rock sound to Oxford thedmfeatures@gmail.com
Sunflower Bean may have become indie darlings of the music world this year, but that’s not for lack of any hard work. “Between 2014 and 2015, we played the most shows out of any band in New York City without actually meaning to,” Julia Cumming, singer and bassist for the rock trio said. “That kind of shows where our headspace is at.” According to 2014 listings on New York City music website Oh My Rockness, Sunflower Bean had played 50 shows in the city. This year, they’ve traversed the world in the name of their first full-length record, “Human Ceremony.” As the band drove north to Toronto to kick off the last leg of their U.S. tour, which will continue this month in spots in the Deep South, including Proud Larry’s on Tuesday, Cumming talked about their progression as a band while “the boys” sought to find the nearest Jimmy John’s. The boys, singer and guitarist Nick Kivlen and drummer Jacob Faber, started out similar to Cumming, with a deep connection to New York DIY scene since high school. “We were all in other bands before this — New York City local bands. The boys were in a shoegaze band, and I was in a pop-ish psychedelic band... When we started this, I was a senior in high school, and the boys were in their first year of college. But after that year we just started doing this full time,” Cumming said. Cumming, a Manhattanite, shared a similar affinity for the city’s music scene as Kivlen and Faber, who are both from Long Island. Their involvement — playing and attending shows, dabbling in making their own music — turned into a sludgy psych rock trio called Sunflower Bean. The progression to that point, Cumming said, was natural. “We thought we had — you know, since we had been playing together — we had something, and we just decided to pursue it
with everything we GOT,” she explained, emphasizing the power of their dedication. Now, Sunflower Bean has pared down their sound into something purely them. Their album, “Human Ceremony,” was released in February on Fat Possum, and it’s a product of exploration for Sunflower Bean, whose heavy sound and vocals had become their trademark until their second release on the Oxford-born label. “Our first single with Fat Possum was called ‘I Hear Voices and The Stalker,’” Cumming said. “We were really recording our heavy sound and us as a heavy band. And we put it out and it was cool, but it wasn’t everything that we thought it could be. It was like having that experience, it kind of helped us figure out what ‘Human Ceremony’ was going to be.” While hints of metal still glimmer in facets of “Human Ceremony,” the album sits at an intersection of dreamy psych-pop and rock-n-roll. They explored layering sounds, creating harmonies and shedding some of their heaviness in making the album. For Cumming, this meant resurfacing her classically trained vocals, something she initially didn’t want to do. “I felt like I was rejecting that about myself for a while,” she said. The sound felt right to the trio, and it fit for their growth as a group. “I think it’s now been a little bit about adapting to the live show and making sure that some of that new development is a part of our set,” Cumming said. Their live performance, Cumming explained, is often open to the trio’s improvisation. “It kind of keeps it fresh for us after all these hundreds of shows,” she said. Recently, Sunflower Bean released a cover EP titled “From the Basement,” in reference to Faber’s family’s basement in Long Island. The basement not only serves as the trio’s favored, tried-and-true practice space, but also as a haven from the city’s hustle and bustle. The EP was released as a component of a Rough Trade live show they did

in February. Cumming said they decided to cover songs they loved to, in turn, show a bit more about themselves. This election-day show with Long Island retro pop duo the Lemon Twigs will be the first in Oxford for Sunflower Bean, and they say they’ve been wanting to visit since they signed with Fat Possum. Once they wrap up this tour, they’ll head back to the basement to start working on a second album, Cumming said. Until then, they’re making the most of their tour across the states, where she said they value the experience in each show. “We have a fun time here,” Cumming said. “It’s kind of rugged. It’s us in a van sort of driving around. [Our shows that have] a lot of kids there, it means a lot to us that they have the same interests as us. They’re interested in rock music. They’re interested in the same things as us, so we want to make it count. We want it to be special. I think every show is.”

I wouldn’t quite totally rule it out just yet, but I want to take my time and think through it for sure, and we are looking at all the options.” In addition to the season-ending injuries of Kelly and John Youngblood, the Rebels have a host of other injuries to deal with, especially on the offensive line. “(Wide receiver Van Jefferson) has a hip-pointer, no fracture or anything, but those are tender, and we won’t know until we see how he progresses through the week,” Freeze said. “Robert (Conyers) is going to be what he is. He has suffered through a lot of injuries and really probably doesn’t need to play a lot, will travel with us and he has a heart for us. He will go in if he has to if he needs to. (Sean) Rawlings and Rod (Taylor) we just have to see how the week progresses; they are definitely not well. We sure do need one, would be great if we could get both of those available for Saturday night, but we aren’t sure standing here today. They couldn’t play today if we were playing.”

Patterson losing his redshirt could be giving up a year of eligibility depending on whether or not he attempts to make the jump to the NFL early. “Hopefully Jason (Pellerin) will stay healthy.

Going into the closing stretch of the season, the Rebels have to win at least two of their final three games to remain eligible for a bowl game at the end of the season. Ole Miss has faced a brutal schedule this season and thus stands at 4-5 currently. It seemed like the final games, with the exception of Texas A&M, might be a little easier, but one play on Saturday completely changed that. With quarterback Chad Kelly suffering a season-ending injury against Georgia Southern, head coach Hugh Freeze will have to get creative to make sure the Rebels have enough options under center against the Aggies on Saturday. “Jason (Pellerin) is going to get most of the reps (in practice),” Freeze said. “I thought

Jason played well last week. He threw two beautiful balls that both could have been caught.” Freeze said he will also look at receiver Markell Pack, tight end Evan Engram and offensive lineman Jeremy Liggins at quarterback. All three played some quarterback in high school, with Liggins also seeing a limited amount of time as a short-yardage quarterback for the Rebels last season. Former five-star recruit and current freshman Shea Patterson could also be in the mix at quarterback, but Freeze was hesitant to pull Patterson’s redshirt this late in the season. “Shea (Patterson) has been getting reps with the scout team and I am sure he will get some this week just until we make a decision as to what’s best for team first and individual kind of second, and that’s a really tough question when you get to this point in the season,” Freeze

Chicago Cubs fans celebrate during a rally in Grant Park honoring the World Series baseball champions Friday in Chicago. going to be a lot more exciting now.” During the jubilant festivities at the park, 39-year-old retiring Cubs catcher David Ross posed for a selfie in front of a multitude of roaring fans. Ross and the other players put their arms around each other and sang “Go Cubs Go” from the stage along with the blissed-out crowd. “It happened, baby. It happened!” proclaimed 27-year-old first baseman Anthony Rizzo to adoring cheers. Team manager Joe Maddon — wearing a stocking cap, sunglasses and a jersey over a “We did not suck” T-shirt — looked out over a sea of blue. “Welcome to Cubstock 2016!” Maddon said. “This is an incredible moment for all of us. Never have I experienced anything like Wrigley Field on a nightly basis. ... I want to congratulate you fans also. Thank you for being so patient.” A victory party is new territory for stoical fans of the Cubs, whose last World Series title — before their Game 7, extra-inning thriller Wednesday night in Cleveland — came in 1908. The last time the Cubs even reached the Fall Classic was in 1945. Superstitions die hard. Miriam Santiago, 51, said she carried holy water, her rosary and a bright green lucky baseball

Her lucky charms helped reverse the Curse of the Billy Goat, she said, referring to the story of a Chicago tavern owner who supposedly put a hex on the team after his pet goat was turned away from Wrigley during the 1945 World Series. For days, Cubs mania has spread throughout the city and state. The cast of the Chicago production of “Hamilton” led a sold-out audience in singing “Go Cubs Go” during the Thursday night curtain call. Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner declared Friday as “World Champion Chicago Cubs Day” statewide. The city dyed the Chicago River a bright shade of blue to match the Cubs’ colors, repurposing a decades-long tradition of dyeing the river green on St. Patrick’s Day. Far from being sad about bidding their team farewell for the year, fans looked forward to the future. Outfielder Kyle Schwarber, 23, took the microphone Friday and put it into words for the fans: “I love you guys. We’re world champs. Let’s do it again next year.”
NEW YORK (AP) – Slugger Kris Bryant, pitchers Jon Lester and Kyle Hendricks, and manager Joe Maddon of the World Series champion Chicago Cubs are among the finalists for baseball’s major postseason awards.

CHICAGO (AP) — November blazed like dazzling springtime in Chicago during a massive parade and rally Friday to honor the Cubs’ first World Series title in 108 years and fulfill more than a century of pent-up dreams. A new generation of Cubs fans — riding in strollers or on their parents’ shoulders — joined their elders to cheer the baseball champions. For the youngest, the day would be their first bright memory of following a club once known as “lovable losers.” Their parents marveled at how their children will know the confident, young team as winners. “It’s a whole new Cubs world,” said Dean Anderson, 51, of Chicago, who brought his 10-yearold son, Chase, to see the players’ motorcade as it rolled out from Wrigley Field at the start of the parade route. The “lovable loser thing” — and all the accompanying lore embroidered by long-suffering fan loyalty — may be lost to the newest fans, Anderson said, but “we’ve had enough of that.” A crowd, estimated by city officials at 5 million, lined Michigan Avenue and Lake Shore Drive to cheer the motorcade of open-roofed buses carrying the players along a 7-mile parade route from the north side ballpark to sprawling Grant Park. The city’s tally included everyone who lined the route and the rally throngs. Friday was already a scheduled day off for Chicago Public Schools. Revelers crawled up trees and streetlight poles to get a better view along the route. Others sat atop shoulders to watch the team buses shimmering under a spray of red and blue confetti. Steve Angelo of Chicago carried his 4-year-old son, Nicholas, who held a “World Champs” sign. “For him, the more and more they win now, at his earlier age, the more and more excitement there is,” Angelo said. “There’s parades, and people talk about it more on the radio and TV. It’s

continued from page 1 defenses and a stable of wide receivers. All it needed was a captain that wouldn’t slam it in gear like a speedboat, but rather avoid hitting an iceberg. That may have been the biggest hesitation amongst the coaching staff with Kelly. No one questioned the ability, but could he man the ship without wrecking it? After a refreshingly quiet summer off of the field, Kelly separated himself and won the starting job. Three weeks in, he cemented it with 320 yards and three touchdowns in a 43-37 win in Bryant-Denny Stadium, the first time Ole Miss had beaten Alabama there in over 30 years. Ole Miss football was as relevant nationally than it had been since names like John Vaught and Archie Manning roamed the sidelines and the field rather than being plastered on the sides of the stadium to cherish their past accomplishments. The competitive fire had been harnessed and channeled into a positive force that bred production. Kelly brought it every single time he stepped onto the field. “I think he will be remembered as one of the best competitors that ever played here. He is the quarterback that helped lead us back to the Sugar Bowl since Archie,” Hugh Freeze said. “The Ole Miss people will remember
that for a long time. He will be etched in a memory of everyone that followed our program as one of the greatest competitors to play that position here.” Even in the defeats, he brought it. Instances the 368 passing yards, 110 rushing yards and six total touchdowns against Arkansas, or the four touchdown performance against Florida State. “He’s crazy on the field,” Evan Engram said. “Just his drive, his competitiveness. He is so relentless. He wants to go score every play.” His mistakes came more often than not from trying to do too much. Trying too hard and competing maybe too fiercely. But it is also what made him great. A low tackle on Saturday against Georgia Southern on an attempted throw saw him gingerly hobble down the sideline and into the locker room. He didn’t know it at the moment, but it was the last time he’d play in VaughtHemingway Stadium. “You don’t imagine your last moments as a college ball player to go out like that,” Engram said. “It is tough, but everything happens for a reason.” As unfair as it seems, Kelly found out on Sunday following an MRI that his career was cut short. “Just wondering why us? why him?” Enram said. “I was there for him. I didn’t know until he told me so I was just kind of there for him and making sure he kept his head up and stayed strong for himself and for us.”
Ole Miss lost its leader, and one of the most tenacious competitors the program has scene. On Sunday, that competitiveness produced sadness as he learned his college career had come to an end. “He had a difficult day yesterday, it was tough to hear. Last night he was going much better. Just saying, ‘God has a plan for me and I am going to come back much stronger and work hard to get myself back ready,’” Freeze said. “I know it will be hard, because he is such a competitor, when we start playing these games without him. The team I haven’t been with as we didn’t get the news until after I had finished the team meeting yesterday. They will rally though and they will handle it well. Chad (Kelly), it was difficult for him to hear it, he wanted to finish his journey here, in a different way.” Kelly may have wanted to write a different ending, but the legacy he etched in stone was anything but short and will last long after he is gone. “I think the thing I am going to miss the most is his dog mentality and his drive,” Engram said. “The thing I’ll most remember is his attitude and his positivity on the field and wanting to be great.” The 2016 season didn’t go how most envisioned. It didn’t go how Kelly had envisioned. It won’t end in a cloud of confetti and celebration. But Kelly’s legacy should be celebrated. He had one last chance. He grew up. He made the most of it as Tessitore loudly
proclaimed in a moment where his journey had reached its highest point. The first message Kelly made clear when he got to Oxford was that he wanted to change the direction of his career, and though it ended a way he wouldn’t have scripted. He accomplished just that. “Chad came here wanting to rewrite his story and I have witnessed him to that to a large extent. It is not the ending we wanted, it’s not the last chapter that we wanted to write, but life has a way of doing that,” Freeze said. “I have watched him, I have been with him daily and he’s changed for the better. We all still have challenges in life, we all still have those things that haunt us and the shortcomings we all have, but man I have watched him do things and make impacts on people and the way he played the game here.”
