Former Oregon QB Jeremiah Masoli to Walk On at Ole Miss

Atlanta, GA 8/2/2010 11:59:31 PM

Former University of Oregon quarterback Jeremiah Masoli announced Monday that he will walk-on at the University of Mississippi, according to reports.

Masoli, who was dismissed from the team after two run-ins with the law, visited the Ole Miss campus over the weekend and head coach Houston Nutt offered him a walk-on position on the team.

He can play immediately under NCAA rules because he has earned his undergraduate degree and is enrolling in graduate school, according to ESPN. He said on his website he will enter the parks and recreation management program.

Masoli was considered a Heisman candidate for the Ducks after his successful 2009 season.

However, after the season, he was charged for his role in stealing a pair of laptop computers and a guitar from a fraternity house. He pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of misdemeanor second-degree burglary and Oregon coach Chip Kelly suspended him for the 2010 season. He still practiced with the team during spring drills and was expected to redshirt.

Masoli was dismissed in June after he was cited for possession of less than an ounce of marijuana and two other noncriminal violations following a traffic stop.

He guided the Ducks to their first Pac-10 title since 2001 and their first Rose Bowl appearance since 1995. The 5-foot-11, 220-pounder is a two-year starter who threw for 2,147 yards and 15 touchdowns and rushed for 668 yards and 13 touchdowns last season.

Coach Nutt's Wild Rebel offense is ideal for Masoli's dual-threat abilities, especially after backup Raymond Cotton, who was expected to battle Nate Stanley for the starting job, left the team. Masoli has the opportunity to get significant playing time with the Rebels this season.
