You might be asking yourself: why are we talking about softball for 30 minutes on Podcast Rebellion? Well, it’s because head coach Mike Smith and the Ole Miss Rebels are ranked 18th in the country and are 38-18 right now. These ladies are a damn good bunch of ball players who play with an unrelenting passion that is downright mesmerizing. Don’t believe me? Watch a game. You will then see why we dedicated an entire podcast to this squad. They deserve it.
On this week’s episode, we discuss the university’s new-found identity: softball. Mike Smith took a cellar-dwelling program from the brink of relegation (not really) to the SEC Tournament semifinals for the first time in its history.
