He's just behind Princely who was having an excellent year prior to his injury.
Why isn't he starting at linebacker?

He's effectively playing the position of jack LB. It's a position that gained popularity in the 3-4 defense. They're a DE/LB hybrid that specializes in pass rush. We don't exactly run a true 3-4 but more of a 4-2/3-3 with the jack switching between coverage and rushing the passer. We only have two true linebackers and Pooh and Dottery are getting those snaps with Coleman subbing for Dottery occasionally. You don't want those two off the field either.
It's unique territory for Ole Miss fans. We have a little front 7 depth for once
