Ole Miss Coaching Search Update

Scratch Ron Zook off your list of Ole Miss coaching candidates. The former Florida coach was hired by Illinois on Monday, ESPN reports. ... The top two candidates for the Oxford post appear to be Louisville coach Bobby Petrino and former Washington/Colorado coach Rick Neuheisel. Louisville is reportedly ready to double Petrino's salary to keep him in the Cardinals' nest. And Neuheisel had run-ins with the NCAA at both Washington and Colorado.

But Neuheisel can play the guitar & perform at the Double Decker Festival. In all seriousness, Ole Miss would be making a major mistake if they hired Neuheisel, but that's just my opinion.
