I will definitely remember your list of players to watch tomorrow, PA. See you there!

Thanks Chris. 12-1 is usually time that I can be around but I always try to check a chat thread before and after.

pa, thanks for having the chat session. wish i could have made it, but you are really good with responding to most general posts anyways. thanks again for all the time and effort you put into keeping the ole miss family informed.

Charles, what inspires you most about the future?

I think if the Ole Miss fans will be patience and back this team and the coaches we will have a power house in two years.

Five names to watch in Saturday's scrimmage

1 - Nick Brassell. Could be a starter on offense. How much defense will he play. I didn't see him on defense at all on Wednesday.

2 - Keith Lewis. Of the freshmen linebackers, he played fastest in Week 1.

3 - Zack Stoudt. Houston Nutt has stressed his desire for a mobile quarterback. Can Stoudt make enough plays in the passing game and be elusive enough to win the job?

4 - Uriah Grant. The Rebels have to have a physical DL step up. Grant has a history of making plays behind the line of scrimmage at other levels of competition.

5 - Brishen Matthews. He'll line up like a linebacker a lot.

The buzz grows louder today for Texas A&M and the SEC.

I like it. If Oklahoma wants to come, bring them along too, but A&M makes the most sense right now, entry into the Dallas and Houston TV markets and such.

If A&M comes, the question becomes who is the 14th team.

A lot of chatter for Florida State. Virgina Tech and others being mentioned too.

Blue, that was also my understanding of Brunetti's recruitment. While it was playing out, Houston thought he was going to have Snead for another year.

Blue, I am interested to see what Dorsey does in the scrimmage Saturday. I had a piece on him in today's paper. He really wants to be better. He's worked at it. The Rebels really need him to be better.

From what I've seen at practice, the defense overall seems to have more energy. Certainly, they're louder, encouraging one another.

GTHLSU, It's hard to identify a standout SEC player when they've only been in pads for two days. You don't identify that guy until several games into the season. Standout players put up standout numbers week in and week out.

Raleigh, right now Jason Jones is in that top four and was running ahead of Dorsey Wednesday. I was not there yesterday, will be back today. I am not sure how Thompson will hold up against the run. He was running third team on Wednesday. Mitch Hall isn't in the two-deep, and that's who's getting most of the work right now.

Texan, Brassell could very well win a starting job on offense. He's that good. On Wednesday he didn't work on defense at all. That's something to keep an eye on as camp moves along. Lots of signees come in with hype, and he's certainly lived up to his. I'm not saying the others have not, but in the first week, Brassell has stood out the most. Part of that has been due to his opportunities, getting reps on both sides of the ball early on.

I think Nutt did try and recruit Brunetti but his interest were at west virginia and at state. We were running a pro style only offense with snead at the time. state was running option and wv the spread so thats where he decided to go. The year he came out he was the number 1 dual threat qb out of high school.

PA, If Dorsey is improved, we should be two deep at Defensive End on both sides, with Gerald Rivers, Carlos Thompson, Lockett and Dorsey, right? All of those guys have a lot of potential. I haven't heard much on Carlos Thompson over the past week. How is he doing? Also, how is Mitch Hall (Matt's younger brother) looking in practice?

CHAT QUESTIONS:

Do you think Snoop will win a starting position on offense?

Why didn't Nutt try to sign Brunetti out of HS?

Thanks Yancy

CHAT QUESTIONS:

Yes, Uriah Grant looks like a beast at the nose. Wayne Dorsey has come a very long way since last year. There doesn't seem to be any quit at all in those 3 guys up front. They look like a whole new unit which they are through personnel, but just being at the practices they're flying to the ball and even though the o line is said to be the teams staple this year I believe that the defense can be equally good. The talent there is evident but it's young. They have the speed to make up for not being where they're suppose to be when that happens. I'm excited about this team this year and for years to come.

Does anyone on defense, other then Lockett, standout and look like they will be a top SEC player?

I like the video interviews, but you should try turning your phone/video cam sideways to film in a "landscape" look.
