As we touched on in Part 1, the Ole Miss Rebel championship defense effort begins in less than a month as they host Delaware for a three game set. Big changes are afoot in Oxford after Coach Bianco had a lot of talent exit the program.
There is no replacing the likes of Elko, DeLucia, Graham, Bench and Dunhurst but the Rebels have brought in quite a bit of talent in an attempt to replicate the magic from last season. Ole Miss saw LHP prospect Jackson Ferris go in the second round to the Chicago Cubs and likely day one starter in the outfield Roman Anthony be selected by the Boston Red Sox.
