D. . Coach. Last Year: A-. COACHING STAFF

Man did the coaches struggle this season. From calling some bizarre plays to making head scratching reactions online, the staff struggled.

Both coordinators have been let go from the staff after the season, which is never a good sign for a program.

Freeze will have to make the right hires if he wants to continue his success at Ole Miss. Right now it is looking like Wesley McGriff will be the new DC and Phil Longo will be the new OC.

Some of the plays on the defense were so bad this year, I’m not sure who called them. Surely the DC did not, but I put nothing past this staff.

Freeze continues to meddle with the offensive playcalling and it is hurting the team offensively as well. From pulling Patterson/Kelly for Pellerin in the redzone to the passive play calling, Freeze does not need to be calling plays.

Ole Miss has an opportunity to fix things here, let us see if they do it.
