By Dave Bevan
The 2014 Ole Miss football season is just around the corner. Now that we have hit the 45 day mark until kickoff, we are going to countdown the most valuable Rebel players this season. Their rankings are based on their positions and how much of an impact they will bring to the table. Today on the countdown is…
2013 Season: Last season, Ben Sill played in five games (SEMO, Texas A&M, Idaho, Troy, Mississippi State). He primarily played as backup center to Evan Swindell. Still was a part of the offensive line that helped produced the 5th best total offense in the SEC (6,513 total offense yards).

The Value: Now that Evan Swindell is gone, Ben Still is going to have to step up in that starting role at center. This offseason, Coach Luke has liked the progress Still and Robert Conyers have made. It is expected for Still to start at center and Conyers to back him up in the 2nd string. Matt Luke reported this recently to the Clarion Ledger about the current status of the offensive line:
"“I’m excited about the competitions we have. We have bodies. Now we don’t have guys that are experienced, but we got guys that are competing. I’m excited about that.”"
