Talk of Champions

Jaxson Dart showed out in Ole Miss’ first scrimmage of fall camp practices on Saturday. Dart finished 16 for 20 for 248 yards and two touchdowns, while his primary competition at quarterback, Luke Altmyer, was 14 for 20 for 124 yards, no touchdowns and one interception. Reaction far and wide was fast and furious afterwards, with many (hand raised!) quickly jumping on Dart having seemingly taken th...

We (unofficially) have a leader in the Ole Miss quarterback race. USC transfer Jaxson Dart (16-20, 248 yards, two touchdowns) stood out from the pack in the Rebels' first full-team, game-like scrimmage of fall camp on Saturday. Not that Luke Altmyer (14-20, 124 yards, no touchdowns, one interception) and Kinkead Dent (7-7, 62 yards, two touchdowns) face-planted. No, Dart was just better. Ben G...

On Saturday, Ole Miss football will hold a full-team scrimmage which now-third-year head coach Lane Kiffin recently described as, potentially, one of the most consequential of his career. No pressure, though. To preview, Ben Garrett and David Johnson are back with another edition of Franchise Player, a site-crossover podcast of the Ole Miss Spirit (On3) and Inside the Rebels (247). Don't worry...

James White might be on breakout watch for Ole Miss basketball. The emergence of the now-second-year Rebel guard was one of the few positives at the end of a forgettable 2021-22 season, and he's only continued his strong run of on-floor work over a taxing summer. Ole Miss was a perfect 3-0 on his recent foreign tour to The Bahamas. White averaged 23.7 points, 6.7 rebounds and 4.7 assists per g...

We've totally got DRAMA with the Ole Miss quarterbacks, and it has nothing to do with the on-field practice performance of either Jaxson Dart or Luke Altmyer. Brandon Dart believes his son, the decorated USC transfer, can't get no respect. He obviously isn't a loyal listener of Talk of Champions, which features Ben Garrett of the Ole Miss Spirit (On3) and Bradley Sowell, a former Ole M...

Four-star 2023 wide receiver Ayden Williams, inarguably one of the top high-school prospects in Ole Miss' sights, has set his commitment date. Here. We. Go. Zach Berry and Grayson Weir discuss in the latest edition of  #notcommitted . Plus, thoughts on Jamarrion Harkless, the defensive tackle from Kentucky, and a preview of Jordan Burks' commitment and his potential fit with Ole Miss baske...

In this edition of Franchise Player, a crossover Ole Miss podcast in association with the Ole Miss Spirit (On3) and Inside the Rebels (247), Ben Garrett and David Johnson deep-dive into a number of Rebel football topics, including the early emergence of Mississippi State transfer Malik Heath in fall camp. Don't look now, but Heath could be 'the guy' at wide receiver. Plus, a critical s...

Tuesday marked the first full-pad fall-camp practice for Ole Miss football. More importantly for our purposes, however, Bradley Sowell, the former Ole Miss offensive lineman and eight-year NFL veteran, has made his grand return to the Talk of Champions Ole Miss podcast. Pour up the Kool-Aid! Well, not quite, but Ben Garrett (Ole Miss Spirit, On3) and Brad tell you all you need to know about where...

Ole Miss football went into the weekend with a 2023 class lagging near the 60s in industry-wide recruiting rankings. The Rebels now find themselves in the Top 25. Safe to say 'Juice Fest,' the final significant recruiting event before Ole Miss opens fall camp practices this week, was a rousing success. The Rebels landed five commitments, including a pair of four-stars. Ben Garrett (Ole Mis...

Ole Miss was 10-3 last season, including its 10th all-time appearance in the Sugar Bowl.  The Rebels were undefeated at home, only lost twice in the SEC and added off-season reinforcements in the form of one of the very best NCAA transfer portal classes in the country. But ESPN has Ole Miss going 8-4 in 2022. To be fair, the record is probably dead-on as far preseason predictions go, but ESPN proj...

Ole Miss football returns in a week. This is not a drill. The Rebels will soon open fall camp practices, and there's plenty we're keeping an eye on, including a neck-and-neck quarterback battle between Jaxson Dart and Luke Altmyer. But what else? Well, Ole Miss has a few additional question marks worth paying attention to, and we don't have to dream about possibly winning a national ch...

In this edition of Franchise Player, in association with the Ole Miss Spirit, an affiliate of On3.com, Ben Garrett is joined by Anthony Calarco, a slugging first baseman from Northwestern. Calarco committed to the defending national champion Ole Miss Rebels on Sunday. Calarco, who bats right and throws left, started 51 games for Northwestern last season.

Lane Kiffin continues to lead the discussion on NIL, among other hot-button college football topics. And he's doing so as he continues as Ole Miss head football coach, which, let's be honest, wasn't a sure thing back when the off-season kicked off in the winter. Ben Garrett (Ole Miss Spirit, On3) and David Johnson (Inside the Rebels, 247) discuss it all in another crossover podcast, po...

College football is (unofficially) back. Well, that's what SEC Media Days would like you to think, at least. Ben Garrett (Ole Miss Spirit, On3) and David Johnson (Inside the Rebels, 247) are back for another cross over podcast, and among the topics covered is Ole Miss' time at the podium on Monday. But rather than talk, ad nauseum, about the nothing-burger that is media days, Ben and David...
