Meet the first hire of the 2020 coaching carousel: Will Hall.
The small-town Mississippi boy who quarterbacked his dad's football powerhouse is back where he belongs - in Mississippi.
“Will Hall has been down a lot of dirt roads to get where he is today"
Had a former USM great come see me today! The great Reggie Collier! One of my heroes! If he could play in our offense today, it would be unbelievable!

In my “cave” Zooming with my QB’s and I hear my wife making my boys do the Pledge of Allegiance before school starts this morning!!!! Raising em right! God Bless America!

I don’t have many true heroes, this is one of them! Real man with real values. Did it his way and impacted many! Spent 7 straight summers from 92-99 with him at Bowden Passing Academy. He treated everyone there like they were royalty. Lived by the Golden Rule!

This profession has become flooded w/ people that bull crap their way through, but have no idea how to truly COACH. They use “catch” phrases with no substance behind it, & social media as a marketing ploy. This article is about a real ball coach. I hope I get to meet him one day
For decades Mario Verduzco has been on a mission to fix the way QBs are coached. As his track record gets more impressive by the year, people would be wise to start listening to him—and to the science:
From Day1, this staff has promised to make it important to bring the “Nasty Bunch” back!!! Little preview of the renovations going on in the Duff Center!

Saddened by the passing of Mize Head Coach, Steve Bynum. Coach Bynum was a great man. Lived his life to help others. Loved his players. We need more coaches like Steve Bynum.
Woke up this morning with a flat tire. Neighbor voluntarily came over and aired it up for me! Afterwards we shook hands like red-blooded American men! God bless America!
#AIE
Great stuff. The best coaches always listen to their players!!! Especially the great player. A great player usually has a unique and accurate viewpoint of what is happening.

Payton explains the origin of Kamara's TD run against the Falcons. I remember shooting him and Payton talking going to half. Here's the visual with Payton's explanation:
Awesome job by our players, Kylie Amato, and the rest of our Academic Service Team in the classroom this semester! 5 players made President's List (4.0 GPA); 13 Dean's List (3.5 - 3.99); 44 AD Honor Roll (3.0+)

Wow. What a great example of leadership. This is what a real man does when bad events happen! Doesn’t blame, complain, or defend! He owns it and strives to get better. Thank you buddy. We need more people like you!

Everyone can have their opinion on it, but the bottom line is I gotta keep my head up. I have nothing but respect for the game and the people I get to compete against. I have to be better.
Saddened by the news of Coach Bobby Collins passing. He was a true gentleman. All that knew him, loved him. He built this program into a special place by outworking people & treating people the right way. We are following that blueprint daily to build it back to that standard.
As Frank Gore Sr. enjoys life without the demands of an NFL schedule, Frank Gore Jr. is just starting to make a name for himself as a running back at Southern Miss

Special place! Listen to these guys! You can play football at a lot of places; but will you matter? At USM, it matters, and YOU matter! Unbelievable people, unbelievable place!

Austin Davis tells a story about his dad telling him to "chase that ball as long as I could" - something that fueled him throughout his playing career.
You heard many heartfelt stories like that one tonight from the new members of the M-Club Hall of Fame.

One of the best highlights of yesterday was having the opportunity to honor Coach Jeff Bower as we dedicated the Bower Academic Center. Thanks to all our donors who helped us create one of the best academic facilities in the country!

Congrats to our head man, who had his contract extended today. See story below to see all of his accomplishments over his first 12 seasons at the helm of the program.

He's proud to represent the Golden Eagles who, in his words, will outwork anybody!

Best college football coach in America that most fans don’t know about is Tulane’s Willie Fritz. Incredible last-second comeback win over Houston last night. He wins everywhere he goes. This is a good

Final:
#Tulane
30, USM 13. Wave trailed 13-0 after each team had ball twice and dominated the rest of the way. Senior class has 23 wins, the most for any class this century. First back-to-back bowl wins in school history, first back-to-back winning records since 1997-98.
As I have watched the events in Minneapolis unfold the last few days I have wondered & prayed about how I should respond. Below are my thoughts. I hope you read the whole thing because the final thought is most important. Romans 12:21 🙏🏽
Throwback to ‘97, when I was chosen team football captain alongside Tyrone Bolware,

I owe A LOT to this man. Back in ‘93, Coach Jeff Bower signed a kid from New Orleans that had potential as a middle linebacker. Hopefully I made you proud, Coach. It was awesome for Angela and I to see Coach Bower and his wife, Debbie, last night. SMTTT!
