Just for anyone interested; I did a little searching of some news from Southern Miss practice this past week.
-It seems Tate Rodemaker (FSU transfer) is getting the upper hand in the QB battle. Apparently only had 1 incompletion in Tuesday's practice.
-Ole Miss transfer WR Simmons is looking really good and has been the most impressive player in camp according to coach Hall. 2 TDs today in scrimmage including a 1 handed catch.
-Transfers in general are leading the way on defense; as both interceptions in today's scrimmage were by Mississippi State transfer DBs and the WKU LB transfer had some impressive plays as well, blowing up plays in the backfield. But it was noted that the secondary didn't have a very good day overall however it seems they are temporarilymissing a couple guys, but the DL is apparently stout. 6 "sacks"(touches) today.
-In the interview after scrimmage, Hall kept repeating how happy he is and praising a handful of guys. Made the statement that it's the best players he has ever had. It seems he believes he has a good team this year.
I think this game may be a bit closer than many think. A handful of Power 4 transfers starting, mixed with a new offense for us and our game 1 history. Probably one of the better G5 schools we have opened with in awhile.
