Ole Miss is making some big moves on the football field. They just got Kewan Lacy, their star running back, to stay for another season. This is a huge deal because Lacy is one of the best in the country. He has over 1, 400 rushing yards, which is third in the nation. Keeping him is a big win for the new coach, Pete Golding, especially after the team's big win in the Sugar Bowl.
But it's not all good news. The team is losing a quarterback to a rival. Austin Simmons, who started the season as the quarterback, is now going to Missouri. This comes after Trinidad Chambliss, who took over as starter, decided to stay at Ole Miss. So, the quarterback situation is changing a lot.
On the defensive side, Ole Miss is adding some muscle. They got Jehiem Oatis, a big defensive tackle who played for Pete Golding before. Oatis is 325 pounds and knows the system well. This could be a big help for the team.
The Rebels are also looking ahead to the Fiesta Bowl. They want to finish the season strong and keep building for next year. It's an exciting time for Ole Miss football, with lots of changes and new opportunities.
