TedLNancy Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 (edited) Tonight, Bo Wallace was awarded the "Conerly Trophy". This award was presented at a banquet in Jackson, Ms and is given annually to the top college football player in the State of Mississippi. When Bo was a senior at Giles County, I thought he had SEC quarterback written all over him. He had to take a long road to get there, but he finally got his shot and steadily improved all year. What was even more impressive to me is that his shoulder was less than 100% for most of the season, and he still put up some big numbers against some great SEC teams. I made it down to Oxford to see the Rebels play both Texas and Mississippi State. The progress Bo made during the year was remarkable. At the Egg Bowl last weekend, he struggled with a few turnovers in the first half, and then lit up the field after half time. Patrick Willis of Bruceton, Ole Miss and now the San Francisco 49'ers was the last Ole Miss player to win this award in 2006. Great job Bo! I hope you can have 2 more great years in Oxford.

WiseOldManGiles Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Thanks for the shout out to Bo. He has worked hard to get where he is today. I think you will see him improve as time goes by. I only wish success for all the young men that strap-up on Friday nights no matter what color jersey they wear!

@38320 Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Congrats to Bo. He seems like a hard working young man. I imagine he is making Giles Co. proud. I hope Giles makes me proud and defeats CPA down there this week. I guess that will be a pretty big game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TedLNancy Posted September 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 (edited) How about Bo's performance tonight against Texas? Few people in the state, outside of West Tennessee got to see it, since it was only on the Longhorn Network and a few stations in Mississippi and Memphis, but Bo had a great night. In the second half, he lit up the Longhorn defense as Ole Miss rallied with 30 unanswered points to beat Texas 44-23.

LewisCoPanthers Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 Congrats to Bo. I played against him, and take a lot of pride in the way we played them, no matter what the circumstances were. I knew he was going places when we played him and now I can tell these stories to my kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@38320 Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 Congrats to Bo and the Ole Miss Rebels putting that whipping on those proud Horns in their own house. Go SEC. Go Tennessee High School Football alumni! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCTIGERFAN Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 Bo continues to roll ..complete QB ..tuff as the come He is an average SEC qb, his throwing motion isnt the best, has some accuracy issues but he does have the "it" factor. He is a winner and like you said tough as nails. He finds a way to get his team in position to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpperCumberlandMan Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 I will say behind the qb at Georgia, Bama, LSU, and A&M...he probably 5th in the southeastern confrence and could climb higher the way he is playing.
