Ole Miss defensive end Marquis Haynes revealed why he changed his number from No. 27 to No. 10 this fall. Though he is taking over the number worn by departed teammate C.J. Johnson, whom he called his “role model,” Haynes made the switch primarily as a motivational alternation, according to an interview with The Oxford Eagle.

“This No. 10, it’s got a main meaning to me,” Haynes said. “I ended with 10 sacks, and I was trying to get past that. So I’m wearing 10 just to let me know and remind myself every day when I wear this number I’m trying to get past 10 to break the (recent) sack record for the season.”

Haynes’ 10 sacks ranked No. 19 nationally and tied Phillip Kent, Dewayne Dotson and Greg Hardy as the most by an Ole Miss player since 1990. But he hopes to be closer to the Ben Williams’ single-season record 18 sacks set in 1973.

With all the cornerbacks returning, junior starter Kendarius Webster has a new number (5 instead of 15) and a new outlook for the “Jack Boys.”

With Tony Bridges, Carlos Davis, Kailo Moore, Cam Ordway and Jalen Julius all returning to the “scene of the crime” at corner from a year ago, junior Kendarious Webster has confidence the Rebel cornerbacks are going to up their game this year.

“We are calling ourselves the Jack Boys,” said Webster. “It means we are going to jack (steal) anything that’s in the air. It’s ours. I feel we have to take on that type of confidence. Tony and I got a lot of experience last year and I believe we are ready to have big years along with Carlos and Kailo and all the Jack Boys.

The Ole Miss football team is preparing to face off against the Florida State Seminoles on Labor Day. But they have one less player to prepare for with the injury of Sean Maguire.

We are just a couple of weeks away from the start of the 2016 football season. The Ole Miss football team is going to have to start the season on high alert. Because they will face-off against one of the best teams in the nation. Florida State has become the sexy pick to win the National Championship.

If they want to end up in Tampa, Florida for the championship they’ll have to begin the season without the quarterback that started the second half of last season. Senior QB Sean Maguire suffered an injury during practice this week, he’s going to have to have surgery to put a screw in his foot. Because of that, he will have to miss about four weeks.
