Sixty-one students at the University of Alabama were arrested for drug-related charges, reminding their peers of the consequences that follow drug usage.
On Feb. 19, the West Ala-bama Narcotics Task Force
concluded an investigation that led to the arrests, 13 of which were charged for crimes other than possession of marijuana, possession of marijuana with intent to dis-tribute and drug parapher-nalia, according to a copy of the list of the arrests available on the online edition of the UA student newspaper, The
Crimson White. The magnitude of the situa-
tion and the charges pending against the students leaves Tray Smith, a senior colum-nist for The Crimson White, with questions concerning the legitimacy of the round-up.

Why was Henderson snubbed?
It’s pretty clear that SEC coaches do not like Marshall Henderson.
This past week Henderson, along with Murphy Holloway, was snubbed from being an All-SEC first team selection. I would like to present an argument as to why my fellow Rebel, Mr. Mar-shall Henderson, should have been selected.
Since the 2001-02 season, every leading scorer of the SEC was selected to be on the first team. Vincent Yarbrough, Ron Slay, Matt Freije, Antho-ny Roberson, Ronnie Brewer, Chris Lofton, Shan Foster, Jodie Meeks, Devan Downey and
John Jenkins (back-to-back lead-ing scorer) all led the SEC in scoring and secured a place on the first team.
The first leading scorer in over 10 years to not garner All-SEC first team selection was our very own Marshall Henderson. Although the aforementioned reference only suggests a corre-lation between leading the SEC in scoring and selection to the All-SEC first team, I still find it compelling.
Now let’s compare Marshall’s resume to those who were se-lected this year.
First, let’s look at Alabama’s Trevor Releford. He averaged 15.4 points per game, 2.5 re-bounds per game and 2.6 assists per game. Statistically speaking, Marshall scores almost 5 whole points more than Releford, and he averages a half a rebound more than Releford. Trevor wins the assists comparison be-tween the two by one assist (2.6
to 1.7). Oh, and Releford’s team is playing in the NIT, while Marshall’s team is the SEC Champion and the 12th seed in the NCAA Tournament.
Next, let’s look at Tennes-see’s Jordan McRae. He aver-aged 16.0 points per game, 4.1, rebounds per game and 1.9 as-sists per game. Marshall scored four more points than McRae, but McRae out-rebounded Marshall by one rebound and slightly averaged more assists than Marshall (.2 difference — 1.9 to 1.7). And like Releford, McRae’s team is playing in the NIT.
The other three guards who were selected over Hender-son, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (SEC Player of the Year), Phil Pressey and Elston Turner Jr., beat Marshall Henderson out-right for their spots, in my opin-ion.
But what does Marshall have to say about all of this? After
the SEC Championship game, he said, “I guess that’s a shot at all the other coaches out here. They’re losers. They didn’t win this tournament, we did.”
Henderson was named the MVP of the SEC Tournament. Not Trevor Releford, Ken-tavious Caldwell-Pope, Phil Pressey, Jordan McRae, Elston Turner Jr. or any of Kentucky’s young stars — Marshall Hender-son was the MVP. Although it is unfortunate that Henderson was not selected for the All-SEC first team, he still has an opportunity to “get this money” by making an even bigger name for him-self at the Big Dance. Marshall Henderson is the hottest name in college basketball and he deserves to be. Keep shooting, Marshall. Keep shooting. Hotty Toddy!

has its own judicial system that handles routine drug vio-lations in dorms,” Smith said. “And so there’s a question of, could (the university’s judicial system) have been a more ef-fective way to deal with this than this huge raid that has brought all this negative at-tention and really negatively impacted the lives of a lot of students?”
Similarly, Smith questions how the arrests will affect re-cruitment efforts.
“If your parents at home who are reading about this type of thing in the paper and the university is trying to get their children to come here for their education, it becomes a much tougher sell with the parents, I think,” he said.
UA Director of Media Rela-tions Cathy Andreen said the university is working to move forward.
“Students must understand that they have a choice when it comes to their behavior, and that their decision to vio-late drug laws and the Code of Student Conduct will have consequences,” she said.
Ray Hawkins, assistant po-lice chief of The University of Mississippi’s University Police Department, said he has never seen an operation including so many students, but that the round-up at UA is not unusual for any jurisdiction.
“I think that’s the thing about the Alabama situation – is that there were so many students involved,” he said. “That gets everybody’s at-tention, but the practice of conducting a round-up, that’s pretty much run of the mill.”
Hawkins said Lafayette County has its own unit simi-lar to the West Alabama Nar-
cotics Task Force called the Lafayette County Metro Nar-cotics Unit, or Metro.
Comprised of officers from UPD, the Oxford Police De-partment and Lafayette Coun-ty, Metro works to resolve drug cases and conducts rou-tine round-ups.
UPD rarely makes any fel-ony drug arrests, according to Hawkins. He said UPD would normally call Metro in to deal with drug activity on a felony scale.
Hawkins said marijuana is not a targeted criminal activity on campus, but UPD officers are vigilant when they patrol Ole Miss. He said they have the same attitude of making a marijuana arrest as they would any other criminal activity.
“Drug usage tends to run in cycles,” Hawkins said. “Some years we make a lot of drug ar-rests, and some years there are fewer drug arrests.
“There are some kids who come from high school who have already experimented with drugs, and there are some kids who, it’s their first time on a college campus and have not had any exposure to drugs; the trends tend to change from year to year.”
Hawkins said UPD hopes to educate Ole Miss students in order to empower them to make sound decisions.
“Our philosophy has been education before enforce-ment,” he said.
Hawkins cited the training offered to campus safety of-ficers and security personnel who patrol residence halls from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. as an opportunity for members of the Ole Miss community to become proactive.
UPD hosts seminars once a year to promote drug preven-tion efforts through these of-ficers.
The University of Missis-sippi’s Sarah Isom Center for Women and Gender Studies will begin its 13th annual stu-dent-led Gender Conference today.
Centered around the theme of “Mind/Body/Spir-it,” the conference will fea-ture a keynote presentation by performance artist Kari Tauring.
Tauring will present “Mind, Body, Spirit: Re-turning to the Un-gendered Whole in Norse Tradition” to begin the presentation of student-authored papers.
The conference is open to all undergraduate and grad-uate students and will run through Wednesday in the Center for Manufacturing Excellence Boardroom.
University of Mississippi associate professor of mu-sic and pianist Ian Homi-nick performs in the faculty recital tonight at 8 p.m. in Nutt Auditorium.
The recital will feature works by Beethoven and Si-gismund Thalberg.
Hominick said this recital is for all music lovers, not just pianists.
“I hope they appreci-ate hearing different rep-ertoire and styles and be-ing exposed to something they may not usually get to hear,” he said.

pleased with his squad. “Pretty good at some spots,
not so good at the other,” Freeze said of the retention. “We’re try-ing to get some of the young kids like (sophomore running back) I’Tavious (Mathers), (sophomore running back) Jay-len Walton and of course (fresh-man running back Mark) Dod-son. (Sophomore quarterback) Maikhail (Miller) is getting a lot more reps. He didn’t get enough last year to have good retention.
“Defensively, it looks like the retention was pretty good, prob-ably what I expected.”
Freeze also spoke about the early look of two of the mid-year enrollees in junior college trans-fer defensive end Lavon Hooks and Dodson.
“Very athletic, but has no clue what’s going on right now,” Freeze said of Hooks. “He’s got the tools. Dodson makes some
good runs at times, but then we’ll call a pass protection and he has no clue what he’s doing. It’s day two. We’re going to try to get those young ones some more reps there.”
With junior quarterback Bo Wallace sidelined all spring to rehab his shoulder, Freeze is looking for progression from se-nior Barry Brunetti and Miller, but hasn’t seen it thus far.
“We’ve got to show improve-ment,” Freeze said. “I didn’t think we improved much from yesterday to today from watch-ing the film yesterday. We’ve got a ways to go at that spot.”
Sophomore defensive tackle Issac Gross missed practice Monday, and Freeze said he ex-pects him to return next week. Senior wide receiver Korvic Neat also missed practice due to turf toe.
The Rebels return to the prac-tice field on Wednesday morn-ing at 8 a.m. in pads.

lenge for us. We have got to do what we have done, which has enabled us to win 26 games and continue to play, and that’s play to our strengths, and hope-fully, that’s good enough.”
Rest for the wearyWhen Ole Miss defeated
Florida to win the SEC Tourna-ment, it likely kept the Rebels from playing in a first-round game on Tuesday or Wednes-day. After an injury to sopho-more point guard Jarvis Sum-mers against Missouri, the Rebels were down to a nine-player rotation for the rest of the tournament.
Junior guard Marshall Hen-derson, senior forward Mur-phy Holloway, senior forward Reginald Buckner, senior guard Nick Williams and soph-omore guard LaDarius White all logged 88 or more minutes over three games this past
weekend in Nashville. “The biggest thing that struck
me is we don’t have to play until Friday, which is huge for us, having played three games in three days, not having our starting point guard for the last two and a half of those three games,” Kennedy said. “He’s suffering from a concussion, so it gives us more time to get him back with us. It gives our team more time to come off
this cloud nine and refocus on a very difficult challenge Friday.”
In place of Summers, fresh-man guard Derrick Milling-haus played 22 minutes and scored 11 points, including the game-winner, in a 64-62 win against Missouri. He started both games against Vander-bilt and Florida, while White played big minutes for Ole Miss off the bench. Against Florida, White scored just two points, but grabbed nine re-bounds and dished out four assists compared to only one turnover. Summers’ status for Friday’s game against Wiscon-sin remains uncertain.
“We don’t know yet,” Ken-nedy said of Summers. “He was obviously not available throughout the tournament. He will continue to go through the concussion testing, and once the doctors give me a thumbs-up, we will move forward.”

After winning the Southeast-ern Conference tournament with its third win in three days, a 66-63 win against Florida, Ole Miss is in the NCAA Tourna-ment for the seventh time in its program history. The Rebels are in the Big Dance for the first time since 2002 and the first time under head coach Andy Kennedy.
The No. 12 seed in the NCAA West Regional, Ole Miss (26-8) will face Wisconsin (23-11) in the second round on Friday. Tipoff from the Sprint Center in Kansas City is set for 11:40 a.m. and will be televised on TruTV.
“I’m excited about the op-portunity to participate in the NCAA Tournament,” Kenne-dy said during Monday’s SEC weekly teleconference. “I’m really excited about what our guys were able to accomplish over the weekend and looking forward to the challenges that lie ahead.”
The Badgers, ranked No. 18 in the Associated Press poll, tied for third in the Big Ten regular season standings with a 12-6 conference record. Wisconsin lost to Ohio State in Sunday’s Big Ten championship game after wins against Michigan and Indiana.
‘Contrasting as night is to day’
Wisconsin ranks 10th nation-ally in scoring defense (55.9 ppg), but ranks 219th nationally in scoring offense (65.5 ppg), compared to Ole Miss, which
ranks 10th in scoring offense (77.9 ppg) but 190th in scoring defense (67.3). This is due in part to the two teams’ styles of play, which Kennedy described as “contrasting as night is to day.”
Ole Miss ranks 12th nation-ally with 70.8 combined (offen-sive and defensive) possessions per game, while Wisconsin ranks 310th with 62.0 posses-sions per game, according to Ken Pomeroy.
“They’re a team that is ball-controlling, physical, great passing team, similar in some regards to Florida,” Kennedy said. “They have great ball movement, great player move-ment, very similar to the Ga-tors. It’s going to be a huge chal-

Rain forced the Ole Miss football team into the Indoor Practice Facility Monday morning as the Rebels worked out in shorts and helmets for their second practice of the spring.
Entering spring practice, es-pecially with a younger team and a coach coming off of his first season, retention is always a question mark, but head coach Hugh Freeze was pretty
