Shea Patterson turning bowl ban into motivation: ‘If we’re not going, you’re not going’
Ole Miss may not be going to a bowl game this season, thanks to its one-year self-imposed bowl ban, but the reality of missing out on postseason play has provided a new motivation tool for the Rebels in 2017.Led by embattled head coach Hugh Freeze and rising sophomore Shea Patterson, Ole Miss continues to publicly rally behind the negativity generated by the program’s ongoing battle with the NCAA. While many prognosticators have already begun to throw dirt on the program before the season even begins, the Rebels could have the most explosive offense yet under Freeze this year.
Considered by many to be the No. 1-ranked quarterback prospect in the nation in the 2016 recruiting cycle, Patterson flashed his massive potential last season after being thrown into the starting lineup following the season-ending injury to former Ole Miss quarterback Chad Kelly.
