Ole Miss went to some truly unconventional ways to find a new punter for the upcoming college football season.
On Monday, Ole Miss head coach Lane Kiffin spoke to the media in a press conference as the new college football season continues to inch closer. In his meeting with the media, Kiffin unveiled the unusual way Ole Miss found its punter for the season, Charlie Pollock. The method? By going to a frat party!
“I think he was down at the frat house, like at a keg party or something, where they got him from,” Kiffin said. “So, we have conditioning work to do with my guy. But we just said, ‘Hey, someone go find a punter around campus,’ so we found one that actually used to punt in Division I. So, you never know.”
Yes, in a move straight out of a college movie, Ole Miss really found their punter at a keg party!
