Let’s get the obvious out of the way first: Ole Miss was hit with major NCAA sanctions last November. The NCAA extended the Rebels’ self-imposed postseason ban by a year, meaning the Rebels won’t be bowling in 2018, and tacked on a scholarship reduction (13 over four years) to the 11 over four years that Ole Miss self-imposed.
