“Ole Miss fans know how to party on gameday. Not only do the Rebels pack the house, but they have some of the nation’s loudest fans.” - Kendall Rogers, National Baseball Analyst
“…that was the best atmosphere I have been in … for the first time, I went back and watched (after NCAA Tournament elimination) because the atmosphere was so special.” – Bethune Cookman head coach Mervyl Melendez
Gameday at Ole Miss is truly a unique experience and has been hailed by many as one of the best gameday experiences in the nation. The raucous crowds have lent their support to the Rebels, and that has translated over the years as Ole Miss has made nine NCAA Tournament appearances, including hosting a Regional five of the last eight seasons and Super Regionals in 2005, 2006 and 2009. Under head coach Mike Bianco, the Rebels have been ranked in the top 10 nationally in attendance seven straight seasons and in the top five in attendance for five straight years.
Celebrity fans have come to Oxford over the years and been a part of the most vibrant college baseball experience in the country. Patrick Willis, Eli Manning and Tom Brokaw (far right) are just some of the celebrities who have thrown out the first pitch before taking in games at O-U Stadium/Swayze Field.

Jake Gibbs (left) and Tom Swayze (right) led the Rebels to multiple SEC Championships and College World Series appearances. Gibbs was an All-American and had a 10-year career with the New York Yankees. The number 41 he wore as a coach at Ole Miss is the only number retired in program history.
From the first pitch thrown in 1893, Ole Miss Baseball has produced a colorful and rich history as the program has grown into one of the top programs in the country. Multiple conference titles, Regional Championships and College World Series appearances fill the history books when it comes to Rebel Baseball. And the tradition of excellence has been ongoing for more than a decade under head coach Mike Bianco as the Rebels continue to add to the legacy that is Ole Miss Baseball.

Ole Miss stormed out of the gates to success under head coach Mike Bianco in 2001 and hasn’t looked back as the program enters its 11th season with Bianco at the helm. The Rebels advanced to the NCAA Tournament in his first season and kept raising the bar, going on to host the program’s first NCAA Regional in 2004. The Rebels then hosted its first Super Regional in 2005 and posted back-to-back 40-win seasons for the first time in 2005 and 2006. Ole Miss claimed the SEC Tournament in 2006 for the first time since 1977 and the regular-season SEC Championship in 2009 the seventh overall for Ole Miss and first since that same 1977 season. Fans of Rebel Baseball have flocked to Oxford in the Bianco Era, generating the need for an $18 million expansion to O-U Stadium prior to the 2009 season. More than 1.7 million people have come to watch baseball under Bianco, including a crowd of 10,323 against Virginia in game two of the Super Regional in 2009. In 2010, Drew Pomeranz became the fourth Rebel to win the C-Spire “Boo” Ferriss Award, presented to the top collegiate baseball player in the state of Mississippi. Pomeranz joined previous Rebel winners Stephen Head (2004), Brian Pettway (2005) and Scott Bittle (2008) in bringing the award to the Ole Miss program.

earning postseason births. The SEC also had a NCAA-record five teams earn regional host sites in 2004 and 2006.
• The SEC has sent 46 teams to the College World Series since 1990. That was accomplished despite no SEC teams making the field in 1992. • SEC teams have won nine of the last 22 national championships, with LSU winning six (1991, 1993, 1996, 1997, 2000, 2009), South Carolina winning two (2010, 2011) and Georgia claiming the 1990 title. The SEC has finished runner up four times in that time, 1997, 2002, 2005, 2008 and 2011. • The SEC has sent 10 of its 12 schools to the College World Series since 1990 - Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Mississippi State, South Carolina, Tennessee and Vanderbilt. Ole Miss has played in four Super Regionals the last seven seasons. • Since 1990, 145 SEC squads have been invited to the NCAA Tournament, an average nearly seven per season. The SEC set yet another NCAA record in 2004, 2005 and 2008 with nine teams

• The SEC has had an NCAA-high 11 different teams compete in the 58-year history of the College World Series. In those appearances, the conference has registered a 111-112 record, a 49.8 winning percentage. • The SEC posted a 249-82 record against non-conference foes in 2011, a 75.2 winning percentage. Since 1990, the SEC has accumulated a 5307-1998-4 record against non-conference teams, a 72.6 winning percentage. • SEC teams have also been strong in the polls. Since 1990, 104 conference teams have appeared in the final Baseball America poll, 115 in the final Collegiate Baseball poll and, since 1992, 105 in the final ESPN Coaches poll.
Since its opening on April 22, 1989, Oxford-University Stadium/Swayze Field has become one of the nation’s top venues for a weekend of college baseball. Following the multi-million dollar renovations prior to the 2009 season, gameday at Swayze Field continues to provide fans of college baseball one of the best experiences outside of the College World Series. The ballpark has grown since its original opening date. A seating area was added beyond the right field fence in 1993, where hundreds of students have become accustomed to spending their sunny spring afternoons at the ballpark. The right field area has since undergone another transformation as a left field and right field lounge area was constructed during the 2000 season. The area, which is complete with picnic tables and barbecue stands was expanded again prior to the 2007 season. In the fall of 2003, a new 6,800-square foot indoor hitting facility was added to the ballpark and the indoor batting tunnel underneath the first base stands has become an indoor pitching area. On the third base side of the stadium, the 2009 renovations have provided the Rebels with a new locker room and lounge, as well as a brand new team room with theater style seating and audio-visual equipment. Also included is a new training room. A new high-definition video board was added prior to the 2011 season.

Atop the grandstands, the renovations to O-U Stadium have added a new club suite level as well as a new press box down the third base line. In front of the stadium are new coaches’ offices. The grandstands were also extended down both baselines with new box seats and grandstand seating. Upon its original completion in 1989, the new Ole Miss baseball field was fittingly named Swayze Field in honor of the late Tom Swayze, one of the great legends in Ole Miss baseball history.

OLE MISS ATHLETICS FACILITIES FEDEX ACADEMIC SUPPORT CENTER
INDOOR PRACTICE FACILITY
FedEx Corporation announced on April 14, 2005, a $2.5 million gift over five years to The University of Mississippi to create an academic support center for student-athletes. In May 2007, the vision became reality as the FedEx Student-Athlete Academic Support Center opened its doors to Rebel athletes. The center provides state-of-the-art computer facilities and space for study halls and tutoring for men and women student-athletes, as well as additional classrooms for all students. “FedEx has always been a strong supporter of educational initiatives at all levels,” said Mike Glenn, executive vice president, marketing development and corporate communications. “This contribution to The University of Mississippi is an extension of our commitment to helping improve the academic resources available to students, and student-athletes in particular.” Glenn said FedEx and Ole Miss are committed to providing a strong academic foundation to enable students to reach their full potential. The money has been used to renovate a portion of the Starnes Athletic Center—which formerly housed football locker rooms, a weight room and training facilities—next to VaughtHemingway Stadium on All-American Drive. The 22,500-square-foot building now houses the Office of Student-Athlete Academic Support, including offices, conference rooms, 20 large and small group tutoring rooms, a large study area, a multi-media classroom, computer lab and 150-seat high-tech auditorium. The project was completed in May 2007 with an approximate cost of $5 million. “American public universities are the best in the world largely because of the generosity of American corporations,” said then-Ole Miss Chancellor Robert Khayat. “FedEx sets the standard for philanthropy by which others are measured. In this case, Ole Miss student-athletes are the primary beneficiaries, but all our students will benefit and, as a result, our entire state benefits.” In addition to its latest gift to the University, FedEx supports several endowed scholarship programs, the Whitten Chair in Law, the Lott Leadership Institute, the William Winter Institute for Racial Reconciliation and William Faulkner’s historic home, Rowan Oak.
Among the finest facilities in all of college athletics, the Ole Miss Indoor Practice Facility is the crown jewel in the growing athletics compound surrounding Vaught-Hemingway Stadium. “With the addition of this magnificent indoor facility, we find that Ole Miss athletes and coaches have the opportunity to practice and play games in state-ofthe-art facilities, on the finest fields and courts,” then-Ole Miss Chancellor Robert C. Khayat said at the ribbon-cutting ceremony on Nov. 22, 2004. “They are in a position of being nationally competitive. As we look forward to finding out what is going to happen in athletics at this university and with the university in general, we can move forward knowing that we have provided the infrastructure and facilities that needed to be provided.” Located beside the South End Zone of Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, the Rebels moved into the spectacular $18 million multi-purpose structure in fall 2004. The 150,000-square-foot enclosure was a result of UM's Commitment to Excellence in Athletics Campaign, a $35 million initiative to upgrade the university's athletics programs. In addition to the IPF, the campaign also resulted in a golf facility, renovations to C.M. “Tad” Smith Coliseum and a track and field complex, which sits just south of the IPF. Also, an endowment was created to fund scholarships and maintain the facilities. Numerous Rebel supporters contributed financially to the construction of the indoor practice facility, including legendary Rebel quarterback Archie Manning. In May 2004, former Ole Miss running back Deuce McAllister donated $1 million toward the building of the facility. The architects of the facility were Ferguson & Associates of Jackson.
ATHLETICS ADMINISTRATION BUILDING
STARNES ATHLETIC TRAINING CENTER
Continuing the trend of athletics facility growth, the University provided the Rebels' leadership with a new state-of-the-art home with the opening of the Athletics Administration Building in January 2008. Construction began in August 2006 on the approximately $4.5 million facility, which put all the various facets of the Ole Miss administration under one roof for the first time. Each of the major departments - business, compliance, facilities, media relations, marketing/productions and the UMAA Foundation - has its own wing with spacious offices. Formerly the location of the John White Building and home of the university Physical Plant, the Athletics Administration Building is conveniently situated north of Vaught-Hemingway Stadium and close to other athletics facilities, providing a central location for coaches and student-athletes. Highlighting the amenities is an advanced video production studio and control room, which operates the production in the TV studio as well as on the video boards at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, Tad Smith Coliseum and Oxford-University Stadium. The multi-functional video area is high definition throughout. For visitors walking through the lobby, the building is enhanced with cutting-edge graphics and images from Ole Miss history. The walls are covered with photos of great athletes, ecstatic crowds and memorable publications, while flat screen, plasma televisions are available throughout the facility. With key personnel all under one roof, the Athletics Administration Building provides a much needed cohesiveness to the everyday operation of the University as it strives to achieve its overall goal for success in athletics.
Every aspect of Ole Miss Athletics is geared toward the success of its student-athletes. The Michael S. Starnes Athletic Training Center provides a valuable role in the development and display of that success. The multi-purpose Starnes Center has undergone many transformations through the years. It currently houses Ole Miss Sports Medicine, FCA and CHAMPS Life Skills headquarters and includes a 10,000-square-foot weight room and a sizeable memorabilia collection. Formerly the Doc Knight Field House, the Training Center stands just north of Vaught-Hemingway Stadium and within walking distance of Tad Smith Coliseum, Swayze Field and the main athletics office complex. The primary training room on the Ole Miss campus is used by several Rebel sports. The training area has four offices for the athletic training staff, room for at least 13 treatment tables, six taping stations and countless rehabilitation equipment. It also contains a wet room with a whirlpool that help make up an environment for top-notch care and injury prevention for Rebel athletes. The facility extends to the east into a similar structure which holds a massive weight room, a lobby, conference room and offices. Connected to the west end is the FedEx Academic Support Center, a state-of-the-art complex opened in May 2007. Starnes, the building’s benefactor, donated $1 million toward the facility as part of an extensive $2.5 million renovation in 1995. A 1968 Ole Miss graduate, Starnes is president of Tennessee California Express, Inc., a transportation company. Much of the history and the many accolades of Rebel athletics are displayed in two rooms on the second floor of the Starnes Center that make up Hollingsworth-Manning Hall. Dr. Jerry Hollingsworth, an Ole Miss alumnus and general practitioner in Ft. Walton Beach, Fla., joined forces with former Rebel quarterback Archie Manning to establish the recruitment/memorabilia center. It is faithfully maintained and updated by Langston Rogers, Senior Associate Athletics Director Emeritus.

Ole Miss student-athletes not only have the opportunity to play in one of the best conferences in the nation, they also attend a university that is world-renowned for its academics. The Office of Student-Athlete Academic Support has made great strides in improving the environment for Ole Miss student-athletes. Numerous full-time academic counselors, learning specialists and tutors assist the student-athletes, and the $5 million FedEx Academic Support Center, completed in May 2007, provides the perfect environment for learning.

Ten athletes were also named to the SEC Academic Honor Roll in the spring, while seven freshmen were named to the SEC Freshman Honor Roll. With Ole Miss athletics taking its place among the best in the nation, the Student-Athlete Academic Support staff hopes that Ole Miss graduates of today have a great impact in the future of tomorrow.

The people of Oxford offer tremendous support to the Ole Miss athletics teams, and the student-athletes at Ole Miss return that support by being actively involved in both the Oxford and University communities. Among the worthwhile activities that Ole Miss student-athletes regularly participate in as part of the CHAMPS Life Skills - Rebel Ready program are assisting with reading programs at local schools such as “Reading with the Rebels”, visiting patients in area hospitals, being mentors to elementary school students, visiting senior adults at local retirement centers, holding several “Meet the Rebels” days throughout the year, and giving numerous talks on subjects such as drug awareness and staying in school to area students.
Members of the Ole Miss Athletics Department helped with donations and cleanup efforts in the town of Smithville, Mississippi, following tornados that ripped through the south in April of 2011.

REBEL STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING OBJECTIVE: The primary objective for the University of Mississippi Strength and Conditioning program is to help each athlete be the best they can be. In order to reach this goal, there are several components that must be addressed. There are general needs such as speed, power, agility and strength that must be met for each athlete. But in further development, functional training is used to meet the athlete’s specific needs based on their sport and position. Lastly, there is a mental component that helps the athlete prepare for the demands that will be placed on them during competition. Ole Miss athletes use a wide variety of training methods, from Olympic-style lifting, to high intensity machine training, to the use of chains, tires and sandbags, all combining together to help each athlete be their best. There are no greater facilities at which to train athletes than at Ole Miss. With the opening of the basketball practice facility in January 2010, the Rebels’ hoops teams now have first-class weight training facilities all to their own, with equipment tailored specifically to meet the needs of elite college basketball athletes - free weights, strength and cardiovascular machines and a fully-stocked nutrition counter. Additionally, the teams still have access to the 10,000-square-foot weight room at the majestic Indoor Practice Facility.
With the BPF’s oversized practice court and the IPF’s full-sized indoor practice field, the Rebels’ extensive workouts touch on every area of fitness and conditioning and prepare their bodies fully for intense SEC battles. Assistant strength coach Rich Levy is in his second season working with the baseball team after arriving in Oxford from Auburn in the summer of 2010. Levy earned his degree from Springfield College. As a staff we are always trying to improve our program to give our student-athletes an edge in performance. WE'RE EITHER GETTING BETTER OR GETTING WORSE, WE NEVER STAY THE SAME.
Rich Levy Asst. Strength & Conditioning Coach
OLE MISS SPORTS MEDICINE Prevention. Treatment. Rehabilitation. Education. Those are the four primary phases of athletic training, and the Ole Miss Sports Medicine staff strives to fulfill all four areas when working with the student-athletes on a daily basis. “Our Athletic Trainers are allied healthcare professionals and we strive to provide quality healthcare based on the latest in medical research,” said Shannon Singletary, Senior Associate Athletic Director for Sports Medicine/Strength & Conditioning. “By doing this we hope to not only provide our athletes with a better chance of winning on the field, but also give them an opportunity to lead a healthy lifestyle.” Led by a medical director and a full-time director of musculoskeletal medicine, Ole Miss student-athletes are offered the best care possible by the Sports Medicine staff, which includes 10 full-time athletic trainers, three graduate assistants and several student assistants. The staff serves the student-athletes nearly around-the-clock and at numerous facilities on campus. The Athletic Trainers begin treatments and rehabilitation as early as 6:30 a.m. and are available until the last student-athlete is through. There are currently six athletic training facilities on campus. The staff treats out of two primary athletic training rooms, in the Indoor Practice Facility and the Starnes Athletic Training Center, with four other satellite athletic training rooms, located at Tad Smith Coliseum, Basketball Practice Facility, Gillom Center and Oxford-University Stadium/Swayze Field. The IPF, Starnes Center and BPF training rooms are stocked with equipment such as stationary bikes, hand weights, therapeutic modalities, and recent technology like underwater treadmills and Biodex testing equipment. Each component is strategically designed
to not only give the student-athletes the best care, but also to aid in returning them to competition as quickly and safely as possible. Singletary, though, said the emphasis is on the student-athlete's health, first and foremost. With the renovation of Oxford-University Stadium/Swayze Field prior to the 2009 season, the training room at the baseball stadium also received a renovation to update the facility for both game days and practices, allowing the staff to better meet the needs of the student-athlete Ole Miss Sports Medicine has strong working relationships with local physicians and Baptist Memorial Hospital, located less Tony Barnett Asst. Athletic Trainer than five minutes from the campus. In addition, specialists from the University's Medical Center are often consulted.
ATHLETICS DEPARTMENT MISSION STATEMENT The mission of the University of Mississippi Department of Intercollegiate Athletics is to advance the University's role as a major comprehensive institution of higher learning dedicated to teaching, research, and service. The Department will produce competitive and entertaining athletic teams, by recruiting qualified student-athletes, coaches and staff from diverse backgrounds, providing equal opportunities regardless of ethnicity or gender. The Department will prepare student-athletes to be productive members of society by assisting in their development of academic, athletic, social, and leadership skills within an environment which fosters integrity, sportsmanship, and emotional, physical, and mental well being.
24 24
Operating within the principles of sound fiscal management, the Department will sponsor athletic teams which reflect the interest of the citizens of Mississippi and promote enthusiasm, financial support, cohesiveness, and loyalty within the University community. Demonstrating leadership in all decisions which impact the University, the Southeastern Conference, and the National Collegiate Athletics Association, the Department will conduct itself in an ethical and honest manner.
STUDENT-ATHLETE ACADEMIC SUPPORT Ole Miss student-athletes not only have the opportunity to play in one of the best conferences in the nation, they also attend a university that is world-renowned for its academics. The Office of Student-Athlete Academic Support has made great strides in improving the environment for Ole Miss student-athletes. Schiferl is assisted by three assistant directors, five full-time academic counselors, three learning specialists, two interns and numerous tutors and academic mentors. The mission of the Office of Student-Athlete Academic Support is to provide quality developmental and need-based programs to help student-athletes become independent and self-reliant learners. In an environment that promotes student development, the staff provides support for all student-athletes from the time they arrive on campus through graduation. The staff provides resources, experience and knowledge empowering each student-athlete to reach his/her academic, career and personal potential. The OSAAS staff pursues this mission by promoting academic success with integrity, strict adherence to university, SEC and NCAA rules, and a dedication to excellence. Ole Miss has a long history of academic success among its baseball players, which includes Taylor Medalist Scott Haltom in the 2010 season for mechanical engineering. The Taylor Medal is presented to the top one percent of the class in each field. Last year, 10 Rebels were named to the Southeastern Conference Academic Honor Roll to go along with 18 athletes who were named to one of the University Honor Rolls for having a GPA above a 3.0. Seven freshmen were named to the SEC Freshman Academic Honor Roll.
Among all sports, Ole Miss had 135 student-athletes named to the SEC Academic Honor Rolls over the past year, and 26 student-athletes garnered a national academic honor. With Ole Miss athletics taking its place amongst the best in the nation, the StudentAthlete Academic Support staff hopes that Rebel graduates of today have a great impact in the future of tomorrow.
Sheila Padgett Assistant Director Academic Support (Baseball)
REBEL READY Rebel Ready - CHAMPS Life Skills is a well-rounded program for student-athletes to develop individual skills necessary to lead successful lives and become leaders for our communities and nation. The program consists of five vital components: • The Commitment to Academic Excellence is promoted through a full range of services that include orientation, advising, tutoring, academic skills training and the recognition of academic excellence. • The Commitment to Athletic Excellence is developed by the department’s 10 women and eight men intercollegiate sports teams. The sponsorship is based on equity and compliance to all University, NCAA and Southeastern Conference rules and regulations.
• The Commitment to Career Development is a joint effort of the Ole Miss Athletic Department and Career Center. The goal is to prepare student-athletes for their transition out of sports and into the career development process. Career development components of the program include special workshops and programs for student-athletes and a senior resume brochure. • The Commitment to Personal Development is promoted through life skills and personal development seminars and sponsorship of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. • The Commitment to Service is promoted—in conjunction with the University Counseling Center—through many community service projects throughout the year. The Ole Miss student-athletes are very involved in the community and the community service program continues to grow.
NCAA COMPLIANCE Who Is A Prospect?
A prospective student-athlete is defined as an athlete who has begun classes for the ninth grade. However, it is possible for a younger student to be considered a prospect if the institution (or a representative of its athletic interests) provides the student (or family member) benefits not provided to prospects generally.
Who May Contact a Prospect During the Recruiting Process?
All in-person, on and off-campus recruiting contacts with a prospect (or family) are limited to authorized institutional staff members or full-time enrolled students at the institution. All other persons are prohibited from engaging in any personal, telephone or written contact with the prospect (or family) for encouraging participation in the institution’s athletics programs.
How and When May a Prospect Be Contacted?
In all sports, a prospect may not be contacted in-person, off-campus until their senior year in high school. Prospects may not receive correspondence from an institution until their junior year in high school (exception: men’s basketball - June 15 after sophomore year). Questionnaires and camp brochures may be sent prior to the junior year.
When May a Prospect Visit an Institution’s Campus?
Prospects may visit an institution’s campus at their own expense (“unofficial visit”) and receive complimentary passes to an athletic contest anytime except during “dead periods.” Check with the institution for dates. There is no limit to the number of times a prospect may visit a campus at his/her own
expense. Prospects may receive an expense paid visit (“official visit”) only after they have begun classes for their senior year and have registered with the NCAA Eligibility Center and submitted transcripts and test scores to the institution. Prospects are limited to a maximum of five official visits with no more than one per institution.
What is Considered “Being Recruited?”
A prospect is considered recruited if a coach, staff member or representative of the institution’s athletic interest (booster) attempts to persuade a prospect (or family member) to enroll at their institution and participate in the athletics program. A student is considered “recruited” if any of the following actions are taken: 1) the institution provides the prospect with an “official visit” (i.e., expenses paid) to its campus; 2) a coach arranges for an in-person, off-campus (home or prospect’s school) encounter with the prospect; 3) receiving more than one telephone call from a coach for recruiting purposes; 4) issuing an NLI or university athletic scholarship.
What Should a Prospect Do During the Recruiting Process?
Prospects should register with the NCAA Eligibility Center during their junior year in high school. Contact your high school guidance counselor or call the NCAA Eligibility Center at (877) 262-1492 for more information. The NCAA publishes “The Guide for the College-Bound Student-Athlete,” which may be downloaded from the NCAA website. If you should have any questions, visit the Compliance web page at www.OleMissSports.com or call the University of Mississippi Athletic Compliance Office at (662) 915-1594.

DR. DANIEL W. JONES | CHANCELLOR
PETE BOONE | ATHLETICS DIRECTOR
From an early age, Dr. Daniel W. Jones knew his career aspirations revolved around medicine and leadership. And while a physician leading a comprehensive university isn’t a common arrangement, Jones’ appointment as the 16th chancellor of the University of Mississippi is no surprise to anyone familiar with his record of leadership and achievements at the UM Medical Center in Jackson and the American Heart Association. Jones became chancellor on July 1, 2009, and oversees the campuses in Oxford, Jackson, Southaven, Tupelo and Grenada. Vice chancellor for health affairs and dean of the School of Medicine since 2003, Jones served as the Medical Center’s chief executive officer, overseeing five schools and the health system. Under his leadership, UMMC restructured its clinical enterprise to create a more agile, market-responsive organization focused on quality, efficiency and clinical leadership. The work resulted in a turnaround in financial performance and selection as one of the Thomson Top 100 Hospitals in America. Jones’ leadership team also expanded the Medical Center’s commitment to minority scholarships, rural medicine and the elimination of health disparities. Enrollment of underrepresented medical students increased 80 percent in five years. They also led a campaign that raised $53 million, expanded the medical school’s class size from 100 students to 120 students per class and reorganized the medical faculty clinical practice plan from 17 individual practice groups to a single, unified one, facilitating more efficient management and improved patient care. Under his watch, the Medical Center’s research enterprise has been reinvigorated with completion of the Arthur C. Guyton Research Center, acquisition of funding for a research park and increased research funding. A native Mississippian, Jones graduated from Mississippi College in 1971, earned his M.D. in 1975 at UMMC and completed his residency in internal medicine there in 1978. He had a private practice in Laurel, then went to Korea as a medical missionary in 1985. He returned to the UM Medical Center as a faculty member in 1992 and was named the school’s Herbert G. Langford Professor of Medicine in 1998. He directed the hypertension division and led many clinical studies funded by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute of the National Institutes of health. He played a crucial role in the acquisition of funding from NHLBI to create the Jackson Heart Study and was its first principal investigator. As the only large scale study of cardiovascular risk factors in African-Americans, Jones had to overcome the understandable reluctance of African Americans to participate in research and to build consensus among the three participating institutions - Jackson State University, Tougaloo College and UMMC. Neither had ever collaborated in such a massive undertaking. The new chancellor began volunteering for the American Heart Association 20 years ago and became its national president in 2007-2008. He was one of the early voices in AHA leadership to call attention to the growing problem of childhood obesity and heart disease in women. He was AHA’s national spokesperson on high blood pressure. Jones is married to Lydia Channell Jones, also a Mississippi College graduate. They have two children, Jennifer Jones Flechas of Oxford and Jason Jones of Clinton.
In his 13 years as the University of Mississippi’s Director of Athletics, Pete Boone has overseen dramatic facility improvements across the athletics department, allowing Ole Miss student-athletes and teams to compete at the highest levels in the nation’s most competitive conference. Boone’s personal relationship with Ole Miss runs deep, beginning in 1968 when the Grenada, Miss., native first stepped on the Oxford campus as a center on the Rebel football team, playing first for legendary coach John Vaught and then coach Billy Kinard as he earned three letters (1970-72). During Boone’s 13 years as Director of Athletics, Ole Miss has experienced continued growth from adding sports to his overseeing in excess of $140 million in athletics improvements. A number of projects are currently in the final planning stages or recently completed as Ole Miss continues to meet the challenges of the 21st century both on and off the field of competition. Underway is a $3 million renovation of the Palmer/Salloum Tennis Center, site of many men’s and women’s NCAA Regionals and host of the 2012 Women’s SEC Tournament. Several major projects are on the horizon with the launching of the Forward Together campaign that includes plans for a new arena, a north end zone expansion of Vaught-Hemingway Stadium and other projects. Under Boone’s watch, the athletics department remains committed to young men and women student-athletes and their parents, promising to provide a positive environment of support to help them achieve their maximum potential in their academic and athletic pursuits. The FedEx StudentAthlete Academic Support Center’s front-line technology and classroom environment provide Ole Miss student-athletes one of the best learning environments in the country. While Boone’s focus has been to provide student-athletes, coaches and administrative staff with every opportunity to succeed, he has represented Ole Miss and the Southeastern Conference on a number of regional and national committees. In August of 2008, Boone was elected Chairman of the SEC Athletics Directors Committee. Boone, a 1972 graduate of Ole Miss with a bachelor’s degree in banking and finance, is married to the former Scottye Howard of Grenada. The couple has two sons, Taylor and Lexie. Taylor is married to the former Laurel Joachim of Atlanta, Ga. Taylor and Laurel have two future Ole Miss Rebels -- a son, Morgan (9) and a daughter, Pharis Louise (4). Lexie is married to the former Kim Deuel of Binghamton, N.Y.

David Kellum “The Voice of the Rebels”
Keith Kessinger
All Ole Miss games can be heard throughout northwest Mississippi on WTNM Supertalk Mississippi 105.5 F.M. Air time is 25 minutes prior to first pitch. In addition, the Ole Miss Network, one of the three largest outlets for college baseball in the country, will carry all Rebel games beginning with the non-conference game against Wright State on February 18. Oxford, Miss., native David Kellum is in his 34th year of calling Ole Miss baseball in 2011. Kellum began his broadcasting career at Ole Miss in 1978, broadcasting Rebel baseball games as a 19-year-old freshman at the school. As the “Voice of the Rebels,” Kellum concluded his 23rd season as the play-byplay voice of Rebel football and men’s basketball. He also hosts the weekly coaches radio show for each sport. Prior to taking over the duties for the football and men’s basketball broadcasts, Kellum served as the play-by-play announcer for the Ole Miss women’s basketball program for nine years. Kellum has been honored five times as the Mississippi Sportscaster of the Year, as voted on by the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association members in the state, winning the award in 1998, 2000, 2002, 2004 and 2010. He was also named the “Lindey Nelson Outstanding
Broadcaster” by the American Football Foundation in 2006. Kellum is a 1980 graduate of Ole Miss with a degree in Radio and Television. Kellum is married to the former Mary Evelyn Kuehn of Oxford. They have two daughters, Stefanie Marie and Staci Michelle. The son of two-sport All-American and former Rebel head coach Don Kessinger, Keith Kessinger joined Kellum as a part of the broadcast team for the 2011 season. A two-sport athlete in baseball and basketball for the Rebels, Kessinger was an All-SEC selection on the diamond in 1988 before beginning an eight-year career in the professional ranks after being drafted by Baltimore. He recorded his first MLB hit off the first pitch in his first MLB at-bat with the Cincinnati Reds. Kessinger spent 12 years in the coaching ranks, serving as an assistant at Ole Miss before taking the head coaching duties at Carson Newman and Arkansas State. He is married to the former Laura Neyman and the couple has two children, Anna-Kathryn and Chase.

2012 OUTLOOK
Matt Snyder, Sr., 1B
The Ole Miss baseball team enters the 2012 season with an air of the unknown, but a quiet confidence and excitement that surrounds a recruiting class ranked in the top five in the nation by both Collegiate Baseball and Baseball America, and a preseason ranking in the top 25 for the ninth time under head coach Mike Bianco. “There’s always a lot of excitement this time of year when you’re looking forward to starting a new season, but I think this team is a little different,” Bianco said. “We have a lot of new faces and an outstanding recruiting class from this past fall, so there will be a lot of players playing on the field for the first time. It’s hard to predict how that will parley into wins and losses, but there is no doubt this is going to be one of the most talented groups to ever come to campus and we’re excited.” And while there has been buzz about the incoming class for the Rebels, the 2012 season doesn’t look to be one with unfamiliar faces on the field. Ole Miss returns seven starters from the defensive side of the ball and the offensive line-up from a year ago. The Rebels also return several arms on the mound that saw action in 2011. That combination of newcomers and returning veterans is another point of excitement for Rebel fans and coaches alike as the two groups work to meld into a cohesive unit for the upcoming campaign. “I’ve always been a believer that you find out what type of chemistry you have during a season when adversity hits,” Bianco said. “But, I will say to this point it’s really been a fun group to work with in 36 | REBEL BASEBALL 2012
the fall when you look at their energy and their passion to play baseball and play together. “We didn’t have the greatest fall (statistically) maybe, but we had a great fall when it comes to work ethic,” Bianco continued. “The players got after it in the field, the weight room, the classroom and everything they did. We have some young guys to mix in and there is a learning curve. You attack that learning curve differently when you have a lot of teammates pulling for you.” The energy and camaraderie seen from the 2012 edition of the Diamond Rebs is one that bodes well for the chances of success on the field this spring. INFIELD The Rebels return every member of the infield from a year ago and add senior Matt Snyder back to the mix at first base after the big left-hander served as the designated hitter a year ago following injury. It’s a veteran group of players that includes upperclassmen at first base, second base and shortstop, with a pair of sophomores who saw significant playing time at third and shortstop. “I definitely think when it comes to a fan and media perspective, we’re more recognizable in the field than we are on the mound,” Bianco said. “There is a lot of experience out on the field. People may look and wonder where all the new guys are, but you’ll see them sprinkled in as the season progresses. There is a lot of competition at each position, and I think that’s a good thing.”
Snyder returns to the field at first base where the 6-foot-6 senior played most of his first two years in Oxford before a dislocated shoulder moved him to the designated hitter spot in 2011. The left-handed hitter led the Rebels in home runs last season, turning in nine home runs and hitting above the .300 mark while driving in a team-leading 39 runs. Returning to the middle of the infield is junior second baseman and All-SEC selection Alex Yarbrough. The left-handed hitter was one of two players to start all 55 games last season and paced the Rebel offense in 2011. Yarbrough hit .350 on the year with seven home runs and led the team with a .542 slugging percentage. He also tallied 14 doubles, three triples and drove in 38 runs while scoring a team-leading 49 runs. Helping anchor the middle infield is senior Blake Newalu who drew the start in 52 games after joining the Rebels last season as a junior college transfer. Newalu led the squad with 12 steals on 13 attempts to help set the tone for the Rebels on the base path. Returning at third base is sophomore Preston Overbey, an athletic and versatile player who started most of the season at third base but demonstrated the ability to play either corner position on the infield and saw some starts in the outfield as a freshman. Two other players in the mix out of the gates for the Rebels are sophomore Austin Anderson and junior college transfer Andrew Mistone. Anderson made 21 starts and saw action in 39 games as a freshman last season, playing both positions on the left side of the infield. Mistone had a solid fall for the

2012 OUTLOOK
Rebels and demonstrated proficiency at third base with athletic defense as well as the ability to be a threat offensively. CATCHER Behind the plate, the Rebels return a pair of players pressing for playing time as the starting backstop in senior Taylor Hightower and sophomore Will Allen. Both players are pushing to fill the spot left behind by Miles Hamblin who was drafted in the 12th round of the MLB Draft last season by the Houston Astros. Hightower started 21 games behind the plate for the Rebels a season ago and enters his fourth year under the tutelage of Bianco and assistant coach Carl Lafferty. The senior has hit at almost a .300 clip for his career and has proven to be an adept player on the base path. Allen made one start behind the plate a year ago, making the bulk of his 28 starts in the infield playing behind the senior Hamblin and the junior Hightower. A standout catcher out of Buchholz High School in Gainesville, Fla., Allen was selected to compete with Team USA and has pushed for the starting role with his performance in fall ball this past off-season. OUTFIELD The Rebels see the most new faces in the outfield in 2012 with the departure of two of three starters from a year ago after seniors Matt Smith and Matt Tracy finished out their careers for the Red and Blue.
Alex Yarbrough, Jr., IF
Returning for his junior season is Tanner Mathis, a versatile athlete who played center field last season but has the ability to play anywhere in the outfield. Mathis finished second on the team in batting average last season, hitting at a .336 clip and scoring 37 runs with 27 RBI from the lead-off spot. Mathis truly provided a boost to the Rebel offense from the lead-off spot with his unparalleled plate discipline – posting only 10 strikeouts through 216 at bats after

starting all 55 games. “We return both Mathis and Zach Kirksey in the outfield,” Bianco said. “Part of the reason for seeing more opportunities in the outfield is because we did lose two of the three starters. You’ll also see guys like Auston Bousfield, Senquez Golson and Will Jamison out there. There’s been lots of competition at each position and that brings mental toughness. I like the way they competed this fall. All of those guys run well and will be able to do different things for us.” Competing for playing time in the outfield with the upperclassmen are the three freshmen who bring a bevy of talent and athleticism with them to the field. Bousfield helped lead his high school team in Florida to four consecutive district championships and was a solid hitter who hovered around the .400 mark for his career. His speed also translated into offense for his squad as he tallied 27 doubles, 11 triples 84 runs scored and 91 RBI for his high school career on his way to All-Region honors from Rawlings. Golson is the first two-sport athlete for the Rebel baseball squad to push for serious playing time in the outfield since current Major Leaguer Seth Smith suited up for the Rebels from 2002-04. The speedy Golson plays defensive back for the Ole Miss football team and was drafted in the eighth round of the MLB Draft out of high school by the Boston Red Sox. Jamison, a finalist for Mr. Baseball in the state of Tennessee and an All-State selection, was drafted by the Cleveland Indians out of Cordova High School in OLEMISSSPORTS.COM | 37

Blake Newalu, Sr., IF
the 40th round of the MLB Draft this past summer. He helped lead his high school team to a state championship and turned in an outstanding career with a .406 average to go along with 70 career doubles, 18 triples, 16 home runs and 132 RBI. OFFENSE The combination of power and athleticism among both the returning players and the newcomers lends to an excitement around the potential offense for the Rebels, especially when combined with the addition of a new hitting coach in Cliff Godwin who joined the staff in the off-season after three years as Associate Head Coach at UCF. “In general, we have more options this year (when looking at the personnel),” Bianco said. “I think you’ll see a lot more ability to bunt, hit-and-run and really adopt our beliefs when it comes to implementing our offense more fully. I think you’ll see us run more, and we have more options available to us this season. “Last year we had times with the big guys coming to the plate and a guy on first who couldn’t really run,” Bianco continued. “That left us hoping for the big double or the home run in order to score. This year we expect to have more options available in the lineup.” The addition of Godwin to the offensive game plan and coaching staff has been a big boost so far, and Bianco expects to see that continue throughout 38 | REBEL BASEBALL 2012
the season. “Since he has gotten here, he has hit the ground running with a great work ethic and has brought a lot of energy to the program,” Bianco said. “We wanted someone who could work with the hitters, bring a system here that could be successful and bring an air of confidence and toughness to the program as a leader and the man in charge of the offense. He’s done all three with flying colors. “He has a great rapport with the players. I knew he was the right guy when we hired him, but six months later I continue to be impressed with what he does. An added bonus is what a great recruiter he is and the boost he’s given us in that role over the last six months.” PITCHING For the second straight season, the Rebels will send out a revamped weekend rotation – a rarity in college baseball. All three weekend starters for the Rebels were drafted this past season, leaving Ole Miss looking to some talented pitchers to fill new roles in 2012. “One of the things that’s happened with us over the last year or two is we haven’t had that young pitcher work his way into the starting rotation,” Bianco said. “We haven’t had that Drew Pomeranz, Lance Lynn, Will Kline or Mark Holliman who was able to move into that starting role and come back for another year or two. We have that this year.”
The coaching staff is looking at sophomore righthander Bobby Wahl, who served as a reliever in his freshman campaign, to be that guy this season. Wahl worked 30.0 innings last season and posted four saves to go along with 26 strikeouts and only 11 walks as a closer last season. He was named Southeastern Conference Freshman of the Week after grabbing the save on back-to-back nights in the weekend series against Kentucky in April. The right-handed hurler then went to the Cape Cod League over the summer and continued to perform well with a 1.23 ERA as a closer with 38 strikeouts to 11 walks through 22.0 innings of work. “Bobby was a starter in high school, so there’s no real question about whether he can handle the workload and the innings or mentality,” Bianco said. “The bigger question might have been how he would handle relieving last year. He’ll be the guy who walks out there on Friday night, and I think that will be the difference this year. We’ve been known for running a guy out there on Friday nights who could be dominant, and Bobby will be that guy for us.” As for the rest of the weekend rotation, the expectation is for senior R.J. Hively and sophomore Mike Mayers to round out the weekend rotation when the season begins. Both right-handers saw action primarily in relief roles last season, but also demonstrated the ability to start games. Hively saw limited action after battling a sore arm early in the season, but returned to the lineup at the end of the season. He picked up a relief win over
16 NCAA TOURNAMENT APPEARANCES | 7 REGIONAL APPEARANCES | 7 SEC CHAMPIONSHIPS
2012 OUTLOOK
Arkansas State in May. Mayers tallied 30.0 innings of work with action in 20 games, including a start. He picked up the win over Austin Peay in his only start. Some other pitchers who have put themselves into contention for playing time with the Rebels are junior left-hander Tanner Bailey, freshman righthander Hawtin Buchanan and freshman right-hander Josh Laxer. “There will certainly be opportunities for others, especially some of the younger pitchers, to be able to pitch in some relief roles and mid-week roles and have some success,” Bianco said. “Hopefully by the end of the year, some of those guys will be ready to be the next freshman to move into the starting role like Wahl and Mayers did.” Laxer has been mentioned as one who will most likely start the season out of the bullpen and serve as a compliment to junior right-hander Brett Huber. A freshman All-America selection in 2010, Huber is set to anchor the bullpen for Ole Miss after the departure of right-hander Jake Morgan following his graduation in 2011. “Last year we didn’t have a role defined for Brett, but there is no doubt he will close for us the first weekend we take the field,” Bianco said. “Sometimes having that defined role can really help a player, and last year his role really varied. This year his role is very defined like it was as a freshman when he was so successful.”
SCHEDULE The Rebels will once again play one of the more challenging schedules in the nation with 10 series against Southeastern Conference foes to go along with several non-conference contests against perennial NCAA Tournament teams. “It’s certainly the most challenging schedule we’ve had here in my 12 years,” Bianco said. “We will be challenged right off the bat in that opening weekend but continue to be challenged in the next several weekends heading into conference play.” Ole Miss jumps right into things with a road contest against preseason No. 10 and recent College World Series participant TCU in the opening weekend. The Rebels’ 2012 slate also features a mid-week series at Louisville and home series against Houston, UNC-Wilmington and Miami (Ohio). Also on the schedule are two-game sets with Southern Miss, Memphis, Arkansas State and the annual non-conference tilt with Mississippi State in Pearl for the Governor’s Cup. The Rebels will also play mid-week contests against Murray State, Jackson State, Central Arkansas and Tennessee-Martin. As a part of the SEC schedule, the Rebels lose their annual contest with South Carolina as a part of the conference rotation but pick up a road series with Vanderbilt in place of the Gamecocks. Ole Miss will play host to Florida, Arkansas, Auburn, Tennessee and LSU, while going on the road to face the Com-
modores, Alabama, Mississippi State, Georgia and Kentucky. “The Southeastern Conference schedule is always exciting and always challenging,” Bianco said. “This year is no different than any other year in that regard. Having Vanderbilt back on the schedule is a nice thing for the fans because that always seems to be a series they enjoy up in Nashville with it being one of the closer opponents for us and the fan base we have up in that area.” The SEC Tournament schedule also changes for the 2012 season with the league expanding the field to 10 teams in preparation for the addition of Missouri and Texas A&M in 2013. The event will begin on Tuesday this May with the divisional winners receiving a first-round bye. “I don’t think as far as the way the tournament is run that the fans will really notice much,” Bianco said. “The biggest thing may be the bye on the first day for the divisional winners. After that it is back to the original double-elimination format before narrowing down to the single-elimination at the end. I think it’s a good thing for everyone involved.”

HEAD COACH MIKE BIANCO
When Ole Miss named Mike Bianco as head coach of the Rebel baseball program on June 7, 2000, it was with an air of excitement as Ole Miss fans looked to see the Rebels return to prominence. In the 11 seasons since taking the reins of the program, Bianco has delivered on that expectation as Ole Miss Baseball has become one of the nation’s benchmark programs. With nine post-season appearances in 11 years, including hosting fourstraight Regionals from 2004-07 and playing in four Super Regionals over the past seven years, Ole Miss has continued to rank among the nation’s elite each season under Bianco. The Rebels posted three-straight 40-win seasons from 2005-07 for the first time in school history and have averaged 40 wins a year over the last 11 seasons. Ole Miss has also hosted an NCAA Regional five of the last eight years and advanced to a Super Regional four of the last seven years. Bianco has led the Rebels to championships as Ole Miss won the Western Division Title in 2005 and followed that up a year later with the 2006 SEC Tournament Championship. In 2009, the Rebels claimed the overall SEC Championship with a school record 20 wins in conference play. On the field, Bianco has established a tradition of developing some of the nation’s top players as the Rebels have seen a combined 19 selections to All-America and Freshman AllAmerica teams over the past 11 seasons. The most recent addition to the list of All-Americans was left-handed pitcher Drew Pomeranz, who was named a First Team selection by multiple organizations in 2010, while right-hander Brett Huber was named a Freshman All-America by several organizations. The excellence produced on the field has not gone unnoticed over the last 11 seasons under Bianco as the Rebels have seen 64 draft picks by Major League Baseball in that time. Of those 64 draft selections, eight have been active in the Major Leagues in 2011 - the second most of any Southeastern Conference team this past season.

The excitement on the field has spilled over into the stands where fans of Ole Miss Baseball have taken notice and shown their appreciation. Each season under Bianco, attendance has soared as more and more fans clamor to fill Oxford-University Stadium. That frenzy has been characterized as one of the best atmospheres in baseball. Attendance figures have been shattered with a record 273,000 fans packing the park in 2009 to see the Rebels play. The 2011 season marked the seventh consecutive season that more than 160,000 fans have come to Oxford to see Ole Miss in action, and the eighth straight year with more than 120,000 fans flocking to O-U Stadium to watch Rebel baseball. All-told, more than 1.7 million fans have poured into O-U Stadium to cheer on the Rebels during the Bianco era. In 2011, the Rebels ranked second nationally with an average of 8,156 fans per game at Swayze Field. With the success on the field and support in the stands, Oxford has evolved into a top destination for fans of postseason baseball under Bianco as the Rebels hosted four-straight NCAA Regional and two Super Regionals from 2004-2007. Ole Miss posted the largest crowds for any NCAA Super Regional in 2005 and 2006, and posted the highest attendance of any NCAA Regional in 2006. The 2005 NCAA Regional in Oxford drew the second-largest crowd among all Regionals. When the Rebels hosted again in 2009 at the newly renovated Oxford-University Stadium, new attendance marks were again set as the Rebels hosted the largest crowd in school history as 10,323 fans came to see the Rebels take on Virginia in game two of the Super Regional. All told, 29,646 fans came to the Super Regional, making it the most attended Super Regional of the season and the highest attendance for a Super Regional at an on-campus facility in NCAA history. On Monday, June 13, 2005, the Rebels’ Super Regional game against eventual national champion Texas was the third most watched television broadcast of a college baseball game in the history of ESPN.

Bianco, Ole Miss Baseball has truly become a national name. Ole Miss Enters A New Era Since Bianco took the helm of the program 11 years ago, he has raised the bar for expectations at Ole Miss with each successive season. After being picked to finish sixth in the SEC Western Division in his first season, the Rebels defied expectations, finishing second in the SEC Western Division with a 17-13 record and an overall record of 39-23-1. The 39 wins was then one shy of the school record for a single season, while the 17 conference wins tied the school record at the time. Ole Miss would rise in the national spotlight that season, breaking into the top 10 in the national rankings for the first time since the 1972 season. The Rebels closed out the year with a trip to the NCAA Regional in New Orleans as the No. 2 seed. Four Rebels earned spots as All-SEC selections on either the first or second team, while outfielder Burney Hutchinson earned second team All-America honors from Baseball Weekly. It would be the beginning of a steady climb to the top for Ole Miss. The Rebels again found themselves in the national spotlight in the 2002

season as Ole Miss climbed as high as No. 6 in the national rankings following a series win at then No. 2 Alabama. It was the highest national ranking for the Rebels since finishing the 1969 season ranked No. 6 by Collegiate Baseball. Ole Miss would also see its first Freshman of the Year in the SEC as outfielder Seth Smith earned the honor from the league. The 2003 season again saw Ole Miss in the postseason as Ole Miss earned a berth in the Houston Regional. Bianco’s Rebels, led by a pitching staff that saw five freshmen throw more than 60 percent of the innings on the season and led the SEC in ERA at 3.45 for the year, hit the 35-win mark for the third straight season on the way to the postseason. The appearance in the NCAA Regional was the second in three years for Bianco’s program and only the fourth for Ole Miss since the 1977 season. One member of that pitching staff, two-way player Stephen Head, would be named SEC Freshman of the Year and also named national Freshman of the Year along with All-America honors. The groundwork was laid for the future as the Rebels would reach even greater heights in the coming years. Back-To-Back Seasons Of Firsts Ole Miss set the stage for the move to the next level in 2004 as the Rebels earned another berth in the postseason, marking the first time in program history that Ole Miss would reach an NCAA Regional in back-to-back seasons. But, things were different this time around. Instead of heading on the road for the postseason in 2004, the Rebels were selected as one of the 16 host sites for an NCAA Regional. It was the first time Ole Miss had ever served as a Regional host, but it wouldn’t be the last. On the way to the postseason, Bianco’s Rebels notched a school-record 18 wins in Southeastern Conference play on the way to an overall mark of 39-21. The Rebels were also ranked in all four of the major college baseball polls each week of the season, including eight total weeks in the top 10 in at least one of the polls. Ole Miss was in the top 10 for six-straight weeks from March 22- April 26, moving as high as fourth-nationally in the March 29 edition of the Collegiate Baseball rankings. Stephen Head, now a sophomore, would earn All-America honors for the second-straight season, becoming the school’s third two-time All-American in 2004. He also was named Co-Player of the Year in the SEC and was selected as one of five finalists for the 2004 Golden Spikes Award, amateur baseball’s most prestigious award. It was the first time a Rebel player had ever been a finalist for the award. Head also brought home to Oxford the first “Boo” Ferriss Award, given to the top baseball player in the state of Mississippi. Not satisfied with the accomplishments of the previous season, Ole Miss added to its list of firsts in 2005 as the Rebels built on its earlier success. The Rebels hosted a second-straight NCAA Regional and advanced to an NCAA Super Regional for the first time, playing host to the eventual national-champion Texas Longhorns. The Rebels broke the 40-win mark for the first time under Bianco, setting a school record with a 48-20 record on the season and claiming the SEC Western Division Championship. Ole Miss also saw the second-straight “Boo” Ferriss Award come to Oxford when Brian Pettway was named as the award’s recipient as well as being named an All-American for the first time in his career. He joined Stephen Head, who became the program’s first-ever three-time All-American when he earned the distinction again in 2005. Continued Championships And Success

The Rebels posted a 44-22 record marking the first time in history that Ole Miss had turned in back-to-back 40-win seasons. Ole Miss also claimed the 2006 Southeastern Conference Tournament Championship on the way to hosting its third-consecutive NCAA Regional as well as a second-straight Super Regional against the Miami Hurricanes. The Rebels would again see two players gain national recognition as Zack Cozart and Cody Satterwhite were named All-Americans and three Rebels would gain All-SEC honors. With the conclusion of the 2006 season, Ole Miss found itself holding a spot as one of the top teams in the nation and atop the Southeastern Conference. The Rebels were the only team in the SEC to post a winning record in conference play each of the previous four seasons. Ole Miss also posted more wins in the SEC than any other program over the same time frame. Ole Miss extended that streak in 2007 as the Rebels posted a fifthstraight winning season in SEC action and continued to lead the league in wins over the same time period with 86 conference wins over the previous five years. The Rebels also set a new mark with a third consecutive 40-win season as Ole Miss advanced to the Tempe Super Regional and posted a 40-25 mark on the year. The Rebels became one of only two schools to have hosted an NCAA Regional each of the previous four years and one of only four schools to have advanced to Super Regional play three-straight years. Several players pulled in honors in 2007 as Ole Miss added a third SEC Freshman of the Year in Jordan Henry and Rebels took seven slots on All-SEC Teams. Cozart was named an All-SEC First Team selection, while Henry, Lance Lynn and Cody Satterwhite were named to the Second Team. Henry also joined Nathan Baker and Zach Miller on the All-Freshman team. The trio also pulled in Freshman All-America honors, marking the first time the Rebels earned the honor for three players in the same season. The honors continued to come in for the Rebels in 2008 as Ole Miss advanced to a sixth-straight NCAA Regional, playing in Coral Gables at No. 1 Miami. The Rebels advanced to the Championship game before falling to the top-ranked and top-seeded Hurricanes. Scott Bittle brought home the program’s third Ferriss Award as the state of Mississippi’s top collegiate player and also earned First Team All-America honors. Ole Miss continued to pull in the accolades in 2009 as the Rebels claimed the Southeastern Conference Championship for the first time since 1977 with a 20-10 record in conference play. The 20 wins set the school record for wins in SEC play and helped Ole Miss secure a seventh straight berth in the NCAA Tournament, hosting for the fifth time in Bianco’s nine years. The Rebels advanced to an NCAA Super Regional for the fourth time in the last five seasons, becoming one of only six schools to advance to at least four Super Regionals in that time. In 2010, the Rebels again made an appearance in the post-season with an eighth consecutive berth in an NCAA Regional at the University of Virginia. With the appearance, Ole Miss became one of only 12 schools nationally to advance to eight straight NCAA Tournaments. Left-hander Drew Pomeranz claimed SEC Pitcher of the Year honors, becoming the first Rebel to claim the award since its inception, and also garnered All-SEC and All-America honors. Right-hander Brett Huber also claimed post-season accolades as he was also named an All-SEC selection and earned Freshman All-America honors. Pomeranz became the highest draft pick in school history when he was taken fifth-overall by the Cleveland Indians and led a group of five Rebels drafted in 2010. The lefthander also became the fourth Rebel to claim the Ferriss Trophy, giving Ole Miss more winners of the award than any other program in the state. 4 COLLEGE WORLD SERIES APPEARANCES | 31 ALL-AMERICA SELECTIONS | 117 ALL-SEC SELECTIONS

In 2011, the Rebels continued to bring in post-season accolades as Alex Yarbrough was named an All-SEC selection. Ole Miss also continued the trend of sending Rebels to the pros with six players selected in the 2011 MLB Draft. Excitement Leads To Record Crowds Ole Miss’ success on the diamond under Bianco has led to the Rebels being successful at the box office. Ole Miss has ranked among the nation’s top 25 attendance leaders, including seven-straight years in the top 10, in all of Bianco’s 11 seasons at Ole Miss. Proof of the excitement and success surrounding Ole Miss Baseball can most clearly be seen when looking at the numbers. Ole Miss has gone from almost 60,000 fans coming to Oxford in the 2001 season to the record-shattering 273,111 fans that made the trek to Oxford to see Ole Miss play in 2009. That figure ranked second nationally in attendance. With more than 231,818 fans coming to Oxford in 2010, the Rebels ranked in the top three for attendance for the second straight season. In 2011, the Rebels hosted 261,006 fans through 33 home contests, averaging 8,156 fans per contest. That total was second nationally as Ole Miss continues to rank among the nation’s elite in attendance. Every one of the top 20 crowds at Oxford-University Stadium/Swayze Field have come during Bianco’s nine years, including the largest crowd in program history when 10,323 came to see the Rebels play Virginia on June 6, 2009. In the 2005 season, 170,152 fans filled O-U Stadium, including 26,074 fans for the Rebels’ three-game Super Regional with Texas. That number was shattered a year later with the more than 184,000 fans who traveled to Oxford in 2006, including another crowd of more than 26,000 for the Super Regional against Miami. The Rebels again shattered their post-season attendance record in 2009, when almost 30,000 fans attended the NCAA Super Regional against Virginia. The Rebels have taken that crowd support and turned it into a distinct home OLEMISSSPORTS.COM | 47

field advantage. Ole Miss has won 72 percent of its home games under Bianco, compiling a 282-108-1 record at Swayze Field. In addition to the outstanding winning percentage, the demand for seats has led to new renovations and additions at O-U Stadium/Swayze Field. Grilling areas, picnic pavilions and terraced seats have been added beyond the wall in left field in the Oakes Pavilion. Beyond the right field wall, new terracing along with more grilling areas and picnic pavilions have been added in the area heavily populated by Ole Miss students. Additions to the grandstand including skyboxes and additional grandstand seating were completed in 2009 as O-U Stadium expanded to accommodate the standing room only crowds that have become a mainstay for the Rebels under the leadership of Bianco. Prior to the 2011 season, the Rebels added a new HD video board to the outfield that measures 23’x36’ in size to enhance the game day experience. Top Recruiter Not only have fans and the media covering college baseball noticed Ole Miss’ resurgence under Bianco, some of the top talent in the country is also taking a close look at the Rebels. Nine of Bianco’s 11 recruiting classes at Ole Miss have garnered top-20 national rankings, including three that have placed in the top-10. His first recruiting class was rated as one of the nation’s 10 best by both Collegiate Baseball and Baseball America, including a No. 6 ranking by Collegiate Baseball. The 2003 recruiting class was ranked No. 10 by Collegiate Baseball, while the 2011 class was ranked in third nationally by Collegiate Baseball and fifth by Baseball America. It is the first top 5 recruiting class for Bianco at Ole Miss. The Rebels have had seven first team Freshman All-Americas, two second team Freshman All-America and two honorable mention Freshman All-America selections in Bianco’s 10 seasons at Ole Miss. Ole Miss also had back-to-back SEC Freshman of the Year winners in outfielder Seth Smith (2002) and left-handed pitcher/first baseman Stephen Head (2003). In addition, Head earned National Freshman Player of the Year honors, and second team AllAmerica honors. Jordan Henry became the third SEC Freshman of the Year under Bianco when he earned the honor in 2007. Head and Smith were also members of the USA National Team that captured the silver medal at the 2003 Pan American Games. Zack Cozart was selected to compete for the USA National Team in 2006, while right-handed pitchers Lance Lynn and Cody Satterwhite were selected to compete with the USA National Team in 2007 in the Pan Am Games. Pomeranz became the sixth Rebel selected to 48 | REBEL BASEBALL 2012
compete internationally with USA Baseball in the summer of 2009 when he served as the ace of the USA National team at the World Baseball Championships, helping the United States claim the gold medal. Foundation Of Success Bianco’s winning ways can be traced back to his playing days. After spending two seasons at Indian River (Fla.) Community College, he played two seasons for Skip Bertman at perennial nation-
al-power LSU in 1988 and 1989. He was the starting catcher and team captain for the Tigers’ 1989 team that finished third at the College World Series in Omaha, Neb. He homered in LSU’s 6-3 win over Miami (Fla.) in the 1989 CWS to help advance the Tigers to the semifinals. While working behind the plate for LSU, Bianco caught major league pitchers Ben McDonald, Russ Springer, Curtis Leskanic, John O’Donoghue, Chad Ogea and Paul Byrd. His time behind the plate as a player would later benefit him as he would serve as LSU’s pitching

coach during three world series championship teams in the 1990s. Bianco would also work with the pitchers during his three years as head coach at McNeese State, and continues to serve in that same capacity with the Rebels. Omaha Experience Following his playing career, he joined Jim Wells’ (former head coach at Alabama) coaching staff at Northwestern State, where he served two seasons from 1991-1992 as a graduate assistant. He helped coach Northwestern State to a 1991 Southland Conference (SLC) championship and an appearance in the 1991 NCAA South I Regional. He then returned to Baton Rouge where he joined Bertman’s staff at LSU. In five seasons at LSU from 1993-1997, the Tigers advanced to the College World Series four times and claimed three national championships. LSU also won three Southeastern Conference crowns and two SEC Tournament titles in that five-year span. After the Tigers’ 1997 College World Series title run, Bianco was named the head coach at McNeese State in July of that year. Bianco Earns Head Coaching Experience After seven seasons as an assistant at Northwestern (La.) State and LSU, Bianco received his first head coaching opportunity, taking over the reins of McNeese State. He quickly displayed his abilities to develop a competitive program. In his first season with the Cowboys in 1998, he engineered an 11-game improvement from 1997, posting a 30-26 record the first of three 30-win seasons. The 1998 season also saw the Cowboys rise to third in the conference standings and qualify for the SLC Tournament. Following a 31-25 campaign in 1999, Bianco’s 2000 team produced one of the most successful seasons in McNeese State history. The Cowboys finished 39-20, including winning a school-record 20 SLC games en route to claiming their first conference title since 1988, and making their third-ever appearance in the NCAA Regionals. In recognition, Bianco was named the SLC’s Coach of the Year. Bianco’s 2000 McNeese State team raked in the individual postseason awards. Four Cowboys were named to the SLC’s first team, including the conference’s Hitter and Newcomer of the Year in Chris Williamson, and the SLC’s Pitcher of the Year in Chris Howay. Power hitting was the Cowboys’ trademark under Bianco, as they hit 212 home runs in his three seasons, including a school-record 81 in 1999. His 2000 team batted .305 and set a new school standard for hits in a season with 600.

Most recently, right-hander Lance Lynn (St. Louis), shortstop Zack Cozart (Cincinnati) and lefthander Drew Pomeranz (Colorado) made their Major League debuts, getting the call to the big leagues in 2011. Those call ups gave the Rebels eight players active in the Majors in the 2011 season, the most of any Southeastern Conference team this past year.

In his 11 years at Ole Miss, Bianco has coached 29 pitchers who have gone on to the professional ranks. Over the past seven seasons, Rebel pitchers have accounted for 30 draft selections in the Major League Baseball First Year Player Draft - including fifth-overall pick Drew Pomeranz in 2010 and five pitchers who were taken in the top 100 picks of the 2005 Draft. Bianco has also tutored 13 catchers that have gone on to sign professional contracts. In 2011, Miles Hamblin became the most recent Rebel backstop to be drafted after Houston selected him in the 12th round.

CARL
LAFFERTY Assistant Coach | Fifth Year | Ole Miss, 2004
Carl Lafferty begins his fifth season as a full-time assistant coach with the Rebels in 2012. In his first year back working on the field as a volunteer assistant in 2007, Lafferty worked with the outfielders and catchers, and assisted with the hitters. Lafferty also served as the first base coach. In his time working with the outfielders, Lafferty helped develop Jordan Henry, the 2007 SEC Freshman of the Year selection and a Freshman All-America selection. He also worked with his brother, Justin, a ninth round draft pick of the Detroit Tigers in the 2007 Major League Baseball Draft. Upon moving to a full-time position in 2008, Lafferty continued to work with the catchers, but also assumed duties assisting head coach Mike Bianco with the pitching staff before assuming duties as recruiting coordinator prior to the 2010 season. In his first season as a full-time assistant, Lafferty tutored several players who went on to be drafted in the 2008 MLB Draft, including three pitchers taken in the first 75 picks - Lance Lynn (39), Cody Satterwhite (67) and Scott Bittle (75). Bittle also earned First Team All-America honors. Lafferty also worked with catcher, Brett Basham, who earned SEC All-Defensive team honors and was drafted by the Chicago White Sox in the 16th round. Basham led the SEC in runners caught stealing and led all catchers in runners picked off. Lynn went on to help the St. Louis Cardinals claim the 2011 World Series in his rookie season in the Major Leagues. The trend continued in 2009 as the Rebels saw 11 players drafted, eight of whom worked under the direction of Lafferty. Six pitchers and two catchers were drafted in the 2009 season, including pitchers Scott Bittle (4th round - St. Louis), Nathan Baker (5th round - Pittsburgh), Brett Bukvich (18th round - Florida), Phillip Irwin (21st round - Pittsburgh), Aaron Barrett (27th round - Texas), Chris Corrigan (30th round - St. Louis), and catchers Brett Basham (50th round - San Diego) and Kyle Henson (39th round - San Francisco). The former catcher was also responsible for helping the Rebels claim the 2009 Southeastern Conference Championship. Lafferty continued to develop top pitching talent for the Rebels in 2010, guiding a pair of arms to All-America status. Junior southpaw Drew Pomeranz was named an All-America selection while freshman right-hander Brett Huber was named a Freshman All-America selection. Both pitchers also garnered AllSEC honors. Pomeranz also went on to be named the SEC Pitcher of the Year, the first in the history of the award for Ole Miss. A finalist for the National Pitcher of the Year and the Golden Spikes Award, Pomeranz was taken by the Cleveland Indians with the fifth overall pick in the 2010 MLB Draft, becoming the highest drafted player in school history. He was one of four pitchers under Lafferty’s tutelage to be drafted in 2010. He added to his list of players to go on and play professional ball in 2011 with the selection of four pitchers and a catcher in the MLB Draft. David Goforth (7th round – Milwaukee), Austin Wright (8th round – Philadelphia), Miles Hamblin (12th round – Houston), Matt Crouse (24th round – Detroit) and Matt Tracy (24th round – New York Yankees) were all drafted and signed to play professionally. 50 | REBEL BASEBALL 2012

GODWIN Assistant Coach | First Year | East Carolina, 2001
Cliff Godwin joins the Rebels after spending the last three seasons as the associate head coach at the University of Central Florida, where he ran the Knights’ offense and also served as the recruiting coordinator. In his time as an assistant coach on the Division I level, Godwin has worked with 39 players who have gone on to the professional ranks. In his three years at UCF, Godwin helped put the Golden Knights on the map with the fourth-ranked recruiting class in the country in 2010 and a top-20 class in 2011. Godwin helped lead the Knights back to the NCAA Tournament this past season for the first time since 2004. His offense led C-USA in home runs, slugging percentage, hits, runs, RBI and doubles. UCF was paced by a pair of sluggers in All-C-USA first team selection Jonathan Griffin and All-America selection D.J. Hicks. Hicks was also a semifinalist for the Dick Howser Trophy, awarded annually to the nation’s top player. He also helped coach catcher Beau Taylor, who was named to the Johnny Bench Award Watch list, the award given annually to the nation’s top catcher. In 2010, Godwin was named the C-USA Assistant Coach of the Year by SEBaseball.com, as he helped the Knights’ hit a school record and C-USA record .343 clip. The squad also posted 78 home runs and a .538 slugging percentage, both school records. That season, Godwin also coached Chris Duffy to a .447 average (up from a career average of .283 in the previous three seasons) as the outfielder turned in an .850 slugging percentage with 21 home runs and 81 RBI to set UCF records in both categories. Duffy was named a finalist for the Golden Spikes Award and was named an All-America selection while claiming first team AllC-USA honors. Godwin also coached Chris Taladay to C-USA Freshman of the Year honors. Taladay also earned Freshman All-America honors along with Ryan Breen. Godwin played at East Carolina from 1997-2001 and helped the Pirates claim a pair of CAA Tournament titles as he served three years as the team captain. He helped lead East Carolina to three NCAA Regionals and a 2001 NCAA Super Regional berth. His senior season, he claimed first team All-Conference and All-East Region honors while being selected as a two-time Academic AllAmerican. After finishing his collegiate career, Godwin spent two seasons playing professionally with the Gateway Grizzlies in the Frontier League before getting back into the coaching ranks as an assistant coach at Kinston High School in 2003. Since then, he has continued to climb the coaching ranks with stops at UNC-Wilmington, Vanderbilt, Notre Dame, LSU and most recently his three years at Central Florida. Godwin made a splash immediately in the coaching ranks, helping lead UNC-Wilmington to the program’s first Colonial Athletic Association Championship and an appearance in the 2004 NCAA Regional Championship. From there, Godwin moved to Vanderbilt where he served as the Commodores’ Director of Baseball Operations for two seasons before moving to Notre Dame as an assistant coach under then head coach Paul Manieri for the 2006 season. As a part of the Notre Dame coaching staff, Godwin helped the Fighting 4 COLLEGE WORLD SERIES APPEARANCES | 31 ALL-AMERICA SELECTIONS | 117 ALL-SEC SELECTIONS
Irish hit at a .313 clip and claim the Big East Tournament Title to go along with a berth in the NCAA Lexington Regional. He coached Craig Cooper to All-America and Big East Player of the Year honors on the way to becoming a seventh-round draft pick. Prior to coming to UCF, Godwin helped the LSU offense hit .306 in 2008 with 100 homers and 95 stolen bases. The squad recorded at least 10 runs in a game 20 times and posted a .509 slugging percentage. Towards the end of the season and including the NCAA Tournament, LSU posted a 23-game winning streak en route to a trip to Omaha and the College World Series. The Tigers were paced by Baseball America First Team All-American Blake Dean, who batted .353 and had 73 RBI. The sophomore was the NCAA Baton Rouge Regional Most Outstanding Player and the SEC Tournament Most Valuable Player. Meanwhile, first baseman Matt Clark, who led the nation with 28 dingers, went in the 12th round of the 2008 MLB Draft. Godwin was also responsible for developing LSU catcher Micah Gibbs into a 2008 Freshman All-American for the Tigers. Gibbs eventually served as the starting catcher for the United States National Team that went undefeated and took gold at the 2008 World Championships, and he later was drafted in the third round of the 2010 MLB Draft. Godwin also mentored a pair of LSU hitters who were selected in the top two rounds of the 2009 draft, as Jared Mitchell was taken in the first round and DJ LeMahieu heard his name called in the second round. Godwin helped build the top ranked recruiting class in the nation in 2007 for LSU, according to Collegiate Baseball magazine. That class featured nine signees selected in that season’s MLB Draft.

SMITH Director of Baseball Operations | Second Year | Ole Miss, 2009
Fuller Smith enters his second season as the Director of Baseball Operations at Ole Miss in the 2012 season. Smith joined the Ole Miss baseball staff prior to the 2011 season as the Director of Baseball Operations after having been a volunteer assistant at the University of Texas at Arlington for the 2010 season. At UT-Arlington, Smith served primarily as the team’s first-base coach, hitting instructor and outfield coach. As the Director of Operations for Ole Miss, Smith is responsible for many of the day-to-day functions of the Rebel baseball program, including travel arrangements, budget management, equipment inventory, on-campus recruiting and assisting with the management of the Bullpen Club. Smith joined the UT Arlington baseball coaching staff after completing his collegiate playing career at Ole Miss. He was a model of consistency at the plate during his senior season (2008) batting .332 (69-for-208) with 39 runs scored, 14 doubles, seven home runs and 32 RBI. He was second on the Rebels in batting and ranked among team leaders with a .500 slugging percentage, .414 on-base percentage and was solid in the outfield committing only one error on the season. Smith was a main contributor on the Rebels’ 2008 squad that finished 39-26 overall and ended its season in the NCAA Coral Gables Regional Final against top-ranked Miami (Fla.). Smith also played his junior season at Ole Miss where he started 30 games and helped the Rebels - who hosted the 2007 NCAA Oxford Regional - to the NCAA Super Regional in Tempe against Arizona State. For his career, Smith hit .302 with 58 runs scored, 49 RBI and eight home runs. He played in 117 games over his two years in Oxford, starting 79 of those games. Prior to his playing time at Ole Miss, Smith was a two-year letter winner at Hill Junior College where he batted .403 with five home runs and 39 RBI in 2006. He fielded .998 during his sophomore season and was named second team All-Conference. Smith was a .416 career hitter at Vestavia Hills High School where he earned honorable mention All-State as a senior. He was also named Super All-Metro and Class 6A All-Metro. Smith married the former Whitney Ryon on June 28, 2008.

STEPHEN
HEAD Student Assistant Coach | First Year Stephen Head joins the Rebel coaching staff for his first season as a student assistant coach after spending the previous six seasons playing professional baseball with the Cleveland Indians organization and the Colorado Rockies organization. A three-year letterwinner with the Rebels, Head helped put Ole Miss baseball on the map as he played for the Rebels from 2003-05 and became the first threetime All-American in program history before being drafted by the Cleveland Indians following the 2005 season. Head joined the Rebels in 2003 out of Hillcrest Christian in Jackson, Miss., and immediately made his presence felt as he helped Ole Miss advance to three straight NCAA Regionals, including hosting the program’s first NCAA Regional in 2004 and advancing to the program’s first NCAA Super Regional appearance in 2005. The right-handed pitcher and first baseman was earned several accolades throughout his career in addition to his All-America selections. Head was named the 2003 Southeastern Conference Freshman of the Year and the National Freshman of the Year before being selected to compete internationally with USA Baseball after his freshman season. He followed that up with Player of the Year honors for the SEC in 2004. Head also claimed the Ferriss Award as the top collegiate baseball player in the state of Mississippi that same year. The utility player was drafted in the Cleveland Indians in 2005, going in the second round with the 62nd overall pick. He played five years in the Indians organization before signing with the Colorado Rockies in 2011. Head has since returned to Ole Miss to complete his undergraduate degree. He is married to the former Ashley Hatfield of Anna, Ill.

2011 IN REVIEW
Matt Crouse anchored the weekend rotation for the Rebels and was one of six Rebels drafted in 2011.
ALL-SEC SELECTION: Alex Yarbrough became the most recent Rebel player to earn All-SEC honors when he was named a second team selection by the league’s coaches following the 2011 season. Yarbrough hit a teamleading .350 for the year and led the team in slugging percentage at .542 on the year. He also was second on the team with seven home runs and led the team with 14 doubles and three triples. 23-GAME HIT STREAK: Tanner Mathis worked his way into the record books this season when he posted a 23-game hit streak, the third-longest hit streak in school history. The streak was snapped in the series finale at Auburn (4/23) after starting against Jackson State (3/15). The hit streak is second longest in a single season behind Cody Overbeck’s 24 game hit streak in 2008. Brian Pettway set the record with a 28-game hit streak that spanned two seasons from 2004-2005. PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Senior catcher/infielder Miles Hamblin was named the SEC Player of the Week on May 9 after helping the Rebels post a series win over No. 1 South Carolina and a midweek win at Arkansas State. Hamblin hit .429 for the week with a grand slam at ASU to tie the game and spark a rally before hitting .545 with a 1.111 slug percentage against the Gamecocks to help the Rebels grab the win. He came up with a one out single in the ninth inning 84 | REBEL BASEBALL 2012
to move Matt Tracy from first to third and set up the game-winning sac fly from Preston Overbey to clinch the series win. FRESHMAN OF THE WEEK: Right-handed pitcher Bobby Wahl became the first Rebel to claim weekly honors from the SEC office in 2011 when he was named the Freshman of the Week on April 18. Wahl helped the Rebels sweep the Kentucky Wildcats with a pair of saves in the first two games of the weekend series to set the Rebels up for the weekend sweep in conference play. HARD TO STRIKEOUT: Rebel leadoff hitter Tanner Mathis was tough on opposing pitchers this past season. The sophomore outfielder struck out only 10 times in a teamleading 216 at bats. It was reminiscent of the season lead-off hitter and centerfielder Jordan Henry had in 2008 when he struck out only 16 times in 202 at bats as a sophomore. TOP-RANKED TERROR: Oxford-University Stadium hasn’t been a kind place to the nation’s top-ranked team under head coach Mike Bianco in recent years. The Rebels have faced the nation’s top team twice in the last three seasons and walked away with the series win both times - vs. #1 Georgia in 2009 and vs. #1 South Carolina in 2011.

In fact, it’s been a tough place for top 10 teams to play over the last nine seasons. Dating back to 2003, the Rebels have hosted a top-10 team in a regular season series 13 times, walking away with the series win 10 of those 13 times. SOPHOMORE SLUMP? NOT FOR THESE GUYS: Both Yarbrough and Mathis built upon a solid freshman season and turned in stellar sophomore campaigns for Ole Miss. The duo led the team in hitting with Yarbrough pacing the team at .350, while Mathis followed on his heels with a .336 batting average for the year. Both also finished among the team leaders in walks on the season.

The Rebels also had 11 players named to one of the University Honor Rolls by being named to either the Chancellor’s Honor Roll, the Dean’s Honor Roll or the UMAA Honor Roll. SMITH CHASING RECORDS: Senior Matt Smith chased down several offensive records in his career as a Rebel, finishing in the top 10 of several offensive categories. The versatile athlete finished in the top at Ole Miss all time in RBI, home runs, total bases, runs scored, at bats, hits and walks. Smith finished his career tied for first all-time in career RBI with 183 and finished second all-time in home runs behind Kyle Gordon with 41.

In that time, Morgan factored into nine decisions, taking three wins and six saves. He also did not allow an earned run through 25.0 innings of work while holding batters to a .216 batting average against. Morgan also finished his career with 16 saves, fourth all-time for a closer at Ole Miss.
WALK-OFF WINS: The Rebels were no strangers to walk-off wins in 2012, picking up a 10th-inning win over Wright State in the second game of the season and taking a win over Arkansas State in the ninth inning in the second week of play. All-told, Ole Miss posted walkoff wins over Wright State (2/19), Arkansas State (2/23), Austin Peay (3/1) and No. 1 South Carolina (5/8). Against the Raiders, sophomore Alex Yarbrough came up with a single in the 10th inning to claim a 6-5 win and give the second baseman his third walk-off hit in extra innings in his career. Matt Snyder came up with an RBI single in the ninth inning against Arkansas State to down the Red Wolves 4-3. Zach Kirksey got in on the action against Austin Peay, hitting a sac fly to center to give the Rebels a 6-5 win in 10 innings of the first game of the two-game set. Preston Overbey hit a sac fly against the top-ranked South Carolina Gamecocks in the Sunday game of the series to clinch a series win for the Rebels. EXTRA-INNING AFFAIRS: Ole Miss was no stranger to extra-inning games in 2011 either, playing in five extra-inning contests. In those games, the Rebels posted a 3-2 record.
Matt Smith finished his career in the top 10 of several offensive categories, including tied for the career lead in RBI with 183 and second in home runs.

KEEPING THEM OFF THE BOARD: Ole Miss’ pitching staff posted a stretch of dominant outings on the mound in the month of March with 48.2 innings of baseball with only one run allowed. That stretch ran from March 11-18. The Rebels posted back-to-back shutouts of Lipscomb before giving up a single run with two outs in the ninth inning of Sunday’s series finale. Ole Miss then posted back-to-back shutouts in its next two games, blanking Jackson State before shutting out Alabama in the series opener against the SEC foe. The streak ended when Alabama scored with two outs on the board in the fourth inning of the Saturday game against the Crimson Tide. SIX SHUTOUTS IN 12 GAMES: Ole Miss used that scoreless innings pitched streak as a part of a stretch that saw the Rebels post six shutout wins in a 12 game stretch. The six shutouts on the season was the most for an Ole Miss squad snice the Rebels posted six shutouts in the 2007 season. CROUSE’S COMPLETE GAME: Matt Crouse turned in a pair of complete games this season, picking up the win in both outings. He turned in his first complete game of the season with a shutout win over Lipscomb in the first game of the weekend series on March 11. It was the first complete-game shutout for a Rebel pitcher since Scott Bittle tossed a complete-game shutout of Kentucky in the series finale against the Wildcats on
April 5, 2009. It was the first complete game tossed by a Rebel pitcher since Drew Pomeranz worked a complete game against Western Kentucky in the Regional Championship of the 2009 NCAA Oxford Regional. Crouse turned in his second complete-game two weeks later when he picked up a complete-game victory over Tennessee in the series opener on March 25 to help the Rebels claim a series win over the Volunteers. PITCHING A SHUTOUT: Ole Miss posted six shutout wins in the 2011 season, starting with a pair of victories over the Bison of Lipscomb in their three-game series. Ole Miss won 8-0 and 3-0 in the first two contests of the weekend. Ole Miss went 8.2 scoreless innings in the Sunday game against Lipscomb, giving the Rebels a stretch of 26.2 scoreless innings of work. It was the longest streak of shutout ball since the 2004 season when Ole Miss posted four straight shutouts. The Rebels followed that up with two more shutouts the next week, blanking Jackson State 8-0 in the Tuesday contest before shutting out Alabama 4-0 in the series opener that weekend. Ole Miss picked up its final two shutouts of the season with a scoreless victory over Samford and the win over Tennessee in the Friday night series opener.
DOUBLE DIGIT STRIKEOUT GAMES: The Rebel pitching staff posted its first double-digit strikeout performance of the season in the Sunday game against Wright State. In that game, Ole Miss had four pitchers combine for 10 strikeouts, paced by five strikeouts from starter Austin Wright. All told, the Rebels posted 12 double-digit strikeout games and posted an 11-1 record in those games. OPPONENT STRIKEOUTS Wright State (2/20) 10 Western Kentucky (3/9) 12 Lipscomb (3/13) 10 Jackson State (3/15) 14 Alabama (3/18) 10 at #17 LSU (4/2) 11 Georgia (4/10) 13 vs. #20 Southern Miss (4/22) 11 at Auburn (4/22) 12 at Arkansas State (5/4) 12 Mississippi State (5/14) 11 SEMO (5/17) 11 QUALITY STARTS: The Rebels posted 20 quality starts in the 2011 season with the starting pitcher taking the decision in 16 of those outings. Matt Crouse picked up all seven of his wins in quality starts, while David Goforth picked up three wins in his quality starts. Austin Wright added three wins in quality starts and Matt Tracy picked up one win with a quality start.
David Goforth was the first Rebel taken in the 2011 MLB Draft when he was selected by the Milwaukee Brewers in the 7th round. He was the first of four pitchers taken from Ole Miss.

2011 IN REVIEW
Alex Yarbrough led the Rebels with a .350 average in 2011.
STOPPER OF THE YEAR: A pair of Rebels were named to the preseason Stopper of the Year Watch List honoring the nation’s best closer. Sophomore RHP Brett Huber and senior RHP Jake Morgan both made the list as the Rebels were the only school in America to garner consideration for two players on the preseason list. The duo also made up half of the nominees from the Southeastern Conference as four players from the SEC were named to the list. Huber earned Freshman All-America honors in 2010 as he posted 12 saves and finished one save shy of the single-season record at Ole Miss. He was also an All-SEC selection that year and earned a spot on the All-Freshman team for the SEC. Morgan missed the 2010 season after suffering an elbow injury, but in his two years prior had accumulated a 9-1 record with 10 saves. He had also struck out 93 batters while walking only 11 in 83.0 innings of work.
SURGING ATTENDANCE: Ole Miss continued to be one of the top destinations for fans of college baseball in the 2011 season as the Rebels finished the year ranked second nationally in attendance. There were 261,006 fans who made the trek to Oxford to cheer on the Rebels for an average of 8,156 fans per game.

HISTORY - RECORDS Having fielded teams since the late 19th century, the University of Mississippi boasts a long and distinguished baseball history. While the Rebels have games recorded as early as 1893, what is commonly referred to as the “modern era” is considered to have started in 1947. Through the years, Ole Miss has had a total of 20 coaches on record, six during the modern era, with Mike Bianco being the latest when he was named the Rebels’ field skipper in June 2000. Ole Miss has won seven Southeastern Conference championships and has made 16 trips to the NCAA Tournament. Four times, the Rebels have advanced to the College World Series in Omaha, Neb. Through the years, Ole Miss has produced 31 selections to an All-America team. In 2003, Stephen Head became Ole Miss’ first-ever National Freshman of the Year when he was selected as one of four National Freshmen of the Year by Collegiate Baseball newspaper, and he was Ole Miss’ first-ever finalist for the Golden Spikes Award, amateur baseball’s most prestigious award, in 2004. Head went on to be the first three-time All-America at Ole Miss. Drew Pomeranz joined head as a finalist for the Golden Spikes Award in 2010 and became the highest draft pick in school history with the fifth overall selection of Cleveland. Pomeranz also became the most recent addition to the Rebels’ collection of All-American’s in 2010. The Rebels have also had 36 former players go on to play in the Major Leagues. THE EARLY YEARS The earliest game on record is a 6-3 loss to Mississippi A&M in Starkville during 1893. While the Rebels lost that first game, they did see their fair share of successes during the program’s early years. Coach Ashford produced the first winning season in 1902, posting a 9-8 on-the-field ledger. Ole Miss would end up finishing the year 10-7 due to a win being forfeited by Alabama. J.W. McCall’s 1910 squad posted an 11-3 record, and in 1914, Baseball Hall of Famer Casey Stengel coached Ole Miss in the spring. Stengel helped the team to a 13-9 finish. In 1923, Pete Shields became the program’s head coach and spent nine successful seasons at Ole Miss. His first team ended the season with a 15-game win streak to finish with an 18-3-1 mark. Shields would suffer just one sub-.500 year, a 2-8-1 ledger in 1928, as he compiled a 114-59-2 mark with the Rebels. C.M. “Tad” Smith followed Shields as the head coach in 1932. Smith would coach the Rebels for a total of 16 seasons from 1932-1942 and from 1946-1950 as he led Ole Miss into the program’s modern era. In 1940, Sisler Johnson recorded the first no-hitter in school history during an 8-0 win over Mississippi College. Goat Hale coached the 1943 team, going 2-10. Ole Miss didn’t field teams in 1944 and 1945 due to World War II, and when the Rebels returned to the field in 1946, Smith was back as the head coach.
The University of Mississippi has been fielding collegiate baseball teams since the late 19th-century.
He would coach Ole Miss for the next five seasons to finish with a record of 107-143-4. Charlie Conerly highlighted Smith’s final seasons by becoming the first .400-hitter on record in school history, with a .451 average in 1948. SWAYZE PUTS REBELS IN NATIONAL SPOTLIGHT During Tom Swayze’s 21 seasons at Ole Miss, the Rebels would emerge onto the national stage. Swayze would compile a 361-201-2 record from 1951-1971, winning four SEC championships and making three visits to Omaha. Swayze’s squads would suffer only three losing seasons and recorded 11 consecutive winning campaigns from 1954-1964. The 1956 season would be the Rebels’ breakout season under Swayze. Ole Miss would finish the regular season 18-5 overall and 13-3 in the SEC to tie Florida for the regular-season title. While the Gators would defeat the Rebels in a SEC playoff series, two games to none, Ole Miss still received a bid to the NCAA District III Playoffs. Ole Miss would go 3-1 at the NCAA District III Playoffs, defeating Duke twice out of the loser’s bracket to earn the school’s first-ever trip to the College World Series. In their first trip to Omaha, Ole Miss went 2-2 to finish third — the Rebels’ best-ever showing in the World Series. The 1956 campaign also saw the first no-hitter of the modern era when Cecil Burford blanked Vanderbilt 7-0. Also, second baseman Bernie Schreiber became the first Rebel to garner All-America honors. Ole Miss would claim its first of four conference crowns under Swayze in 1959, capturing the SEC Western Division title and
defeating Georgia Tech two games to one in the SEC Championship Series. The Rebels repeated as SEC champs in 1960, rolling to a 22-3 record, which was highlighted by a school-record 17-game winning streak. Ole Miss would again win SEC titles in 1964 and 1969. The Rebels also played for the conference title in 1967, losing to Auburn in the SEC Championship series. Following the Rebels’ conference titles in 1964 and 1969, Ole Miss earned a berth in the NCAA District III Playoffs and advanced to the College World Series in both years. Swayze would conclude his tenure with a 25-8 record in 1970 and a 16-21 mark in 1971. During his 21 seasons with the Rebels, Swayze would be honored as the SEC’s Coach of the Year four times, winning the award in 1959, 1960, 1964 and 1969. In addition to Schreiber, Ole Miss would also have four AllAmericas under Swayze: third baseman Jake Gibbs in 1960 and 1961, shortstop Donnie Kessinger in 1964, shortstop Jimmy Yawn in 1966 and third baseman Whitey Adams in 1970. GIBBS LEADS REBELS BACK TO OMAHA Following a Major League career with the New York Yankees from 1962-1971, former two-time All-America Jake Gibbs returned to Oxford to lead the Ole Miss baseball program in 1972. He quickly reversed the Rebels’ fortunes following a 16-21 ledger in 1971. In his first year, Gibbs guided Ole Miss to a 28-16 record, winning the fifth SEC championship in school history and leading the Rebels to their fourth visit to the College World Series. Gibbs would also lead Ole Miss to its sixth SEC championship in 1977, when the Rebels hosted and won the inaugural SEC Tournament at old Swayze Field. The 1977 team would also qualify for the NCAA Southern Regional, going 1-2 to finish the year with a 39-19 record for a then-school record for wins in a season. Gibbs would coach the Rebels through 1990 season and leave as the school’s all-time winningest coach, compiling 485389-8 record. REBELS GET NEW HOME On February 19, 1989, Ole Miss opened its current home facility, Oxford-University Stadium/Swayze Field, with a doubleheader sweep of Cumberland University. A crowd of 1,016 braved the bitter cold that day to be part of an historic day in the school’s baseball history. Ole Miss officially dedicated its new home later on April 22, 1989 as a sellout crowd of 2,967 watched the Rebels down Kentucky 4-3.
After playing for the University of Mississippi, brothers “Hub” Walker (left) and “Gee” Walker went on to enjoy baseball careers in the Major Leagues. Both broke into the American League with the Detroit Tigers in 1931. They also played for Detroit in 1935 when the Tigers won the World Series over the St. Louis Cardinals.

HISTORY - RECORDS
Casey Sten gel – T he Re bs’ Pr o fes s o r by Raoul Carlisle, Forrest City, Ark., Times-Herald
Casey Stengel is a man of teaching ability on the field and off the field ... A story in The Sporting News the other day, had a story on why Stengel is called “Professor.” Says Stengel, “Nobody has written this, as yet. But I once was the baseball coach at the University of Mississippi. And I did mighty well. In fact, at the time I had ambitions to devote my career to coaching college baseball and basketball.” He goes on to say in the article that it was back in 1914 when he hit only .272 and received an injury with Brooklyn. He states he felt insecure and the idea of going into coaching appealed to him. Said Stengel, “I got in touch with Bill Driver, my old baseball and football coach from Central High at Kansas City, who had the basketball and football job at Mississippi. I asked if he needed a coach and he answered, ‘Yes, come on down.” So Stengel went down to Oxford, Miss., to become the Professor of Baseball- “in a very fine atmosphere in a grand old university.’” Says Stengel, “Maybe I should have stayed there, I did okay, had a fine team, and when I left they gave me a gold-headed cane. My sister has it in Kansas City. Maybe it belongs in the Cooperstown Museum. Yes, sir, when they call me the Professor, they ain’t kidding. There’s a good reason.”
Casey Stengel was presented with an M-Club jacket by former Rebel Jack Reed in 1961 when Reed was an outfielder for the New York Yankees.
OLE MISS RETURNS TO THE POSTSEASON After Gibbs stepped down following the 1990 campaign, another Ole Miss All-America and former Major Leaguer returned to lead the Rebels, as Don Kessinger was hired prior to the 1991 season. Kessinger would spend six years as the Ole Miss skipper, leading the Rebels to four 30-win seasons. His 1995 team produced a school record for wins, going 40-22 and earning the school’s first NCAA Regional bid since 1977. Led by All-America performers David Dellucci and Jamey Price, Ole Miss finished on the verge of its first World Series appearance since 1972, placing second at the NCAA Atlantic I Regional behind host-Florida State. Following the 1996 season, Kessinger resigned his head coaching position to take an administrative post within the athletic department. He finished with a six-year record of 185-153. Pat Harrison, the head coach at Pepperdine University, was hired to replace Kessinger. Harrison would coach the Rebels from 1997-2000, recording three 30-win seasons and leading Ole Miss to an appearance in the 1999 NCAA Regionals at College Station, Texas. The 1999 squad went 34-28 and set a school record for SEC wins with 17. Harrison would resign following the 2000 season with a 116-
107 record at Ole Miss. A NEW ERA BEGINS A new era began in Ole Miss baseball on June 7, 2000, when Mike Bianco was hired as the 20th head coach in the school’s history, and the sixth of the modern era. A former player and assistant coach under the legendary Skip Bertman at LSU, Bianco came to Ole Miss after three successful years as the head coach at McNeese State. His first season with the Rebels proved to be one of the most exciting in school history. Picked to finish sixth in the SEC Western Division, Ole Miss tied for second in the SEC West with a 17-13 record. The Rebels capped the season as the No. 2 seed at the NCAA New Orleans Regionals, and finished the year with a 39-23-1 record, one win shy of the school record for wins. Ole Miss also spent 11 weeks ranked in one of the four major college baseball polls, climbing to as high as No. 9 in the April 30 Collegiate Baseball Top 30. It was the Rebels’ first top 10 national ranking since finishing the 1972 season ranked No. 8. Ole Miss went 37-19 in Bianco’s second year with the Rebels. The Rebels also achieved their highest national ranking since 1969. After winning 2-of-3 at No. 2 Alabama, April 19-21, Ole Miss was ranked No. 6 in the April 22 Baseball America Top 25. The Rebels made their second NCAA Regional appearance under Bianco in 2003, earning the No. 2 seed at the NCAA Houston Regional. Ole Miss finished the year with a 35-27 record. The 2004 campaign, marked a season of firsts for Ole Miss. The Rebels went 39-21, including 18-12 in the SEC to set a school record for SEC wins in a season. Ole Miss also made its third NCAA Regional appearance under Bianco, as the Rebels played host to its first-ever NCAA Regional. Sophomore 1B/LHP Stephen Head would earn SEC Co-Player of the Year honors and earned All-America distinction for the second straight season. He was also a finalist for the 2004 Golden Spikes Award. The Rebels would draw a total of 121,457 in 35 home dates to finish ranked eighth nationally in total attendance. It also marked the first time in school history that Ole Miss had drawn over 100,000 fans in a season. Ole Miss once again passed the 100,000-mark in home attendance in 2005, shattering the school attendance marks by drawing a total of 170,152 in 39 home dates — an average of 4,362 per game. The Rebels posted a 48-20 record in 2005 and finished with a No. 10 national ranking by Baseball America. Ole Miss also went 18-12 in the SEC to claim a share of its first SEC Western Division title since 1982. Ole Miss was also selected to play host to an NCAA Regional for the second straight season and won all three games of the NCAA Oxford Regional to advance to its first-ever Super Regional. In the NCAA Oxford Super Regional, Ole Miss lost to eventual national champion Texas two games-to-one. A three-day total of 26,074 filled Oxford-University Stadium/Swayze Field for the series, making it the most attended of the eight Super Regional sites and setting a stadium record for a three-game series. The Rebels also had two first team All-America selections in Head and junior OF Brian Pettway. The young players on the team also set the tone for the future,
as freshmen Zack Cozart and Justin Henry were both were named to the Freshman All-SEC team, while Cozart was also named as a freshman All-America selection. In 2006, the Rebels continued to build on the championship foundation as Ole Miss posted a second-straight 40-win season on the way to claiming the SEC Tournament Championship. It was the first SEC Tournament title for the Rebels since Ole Miss claimed the inaugural tournament in Oxford in 1977, and the first time in school history that the Rebels had posted back-toback 40-win seasons. In addition to the SEC Tournament Championship, the Rebels again hosted NCAA Regionals and NCAA Super Regionals for the second-straight year. Ole Miss claimed the NCAA Regional Championship with a win over Tulane to advance to host the Miami Hurricanes in the Super Regional. Six players were drafted, including Chris Coghlan who went to the Florida Marlins with the 36th overall pick in the Supplemental First Round. Sophomore shortstop Zack Cozart earned All-America honors while freshman Cody Satterwhite was named Freshman All-America with a school record 11 wins on the season. The trend of youth making its presence felt continued in 2007 as Jordan Henry became Bianco’s third SEC Freshman of the Year, earning Freshman All-America honors along with Nathan Baker and Zach Miller. All three also garnered All-SEC honors along with Lance Lynn and Cody Satterwhite. The Rebels advanced to a third-straight NCAA Super Regional and finished with a 40-25 record, marking the third consecutive 40-win season in program history. The 2008 season saw the Rebels advance to the NCAA Tournament for the sixth-straight season and advance to a Regional Championship game for the fourth straight year with a 39-26 record. Ole Miss also saw two players garner AllAmerica honors as Scott Bittle was named a First Team AllAmerica selection and Drew Pomeranz was tabbed as a Freshman All-America selection. In 2009, the Rebels posted a 44-20 record and claimed the SEC Championship for the first time in 32 years with a 20-10 mark in conference play and setting a school record for league wins. Ole Miss advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the seventh straight season and hosted a Super Regional for the third time - marking the fourth time in five years the Rebels had made it to the Super Regional round of competition. The Rebels also had 11 players drafted, the most of any SEC team in the 2009 season. The 2010 season saw Ole Miss again advance to the NCAA Tournament, marking the eighth straight appearance. The Rebels had a pair of All-SEC selections in Pomeranz and Brett Huber. Pomeranz would go on to be the 2010 SEC Pitcher of the Year and an All-America selection, as well as a finalist for the Golden Spikes Award, Howser Trophy and the national Pitcher of the Year. Ole Miss continued to produce players who garnered postseason honors with the selection of Alex Yarbrough to an AllSEC team and six players drafted in the MLB Draft.
