Sometimes we need to explain a specific inside joke behind why something is going viral. Not in the case of this Ole Miss football drill.
This Ole Miss football drill is going viral for all the wrong reasons
WHAT ARE THOSE?!
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
Look, we totally understand the idea behind this. It’s a ball carrying drill designed to mimic pushing through contact while defenders are using their arms to knock the ball loose. It also looks like a big old gauntlet of dicks, and there’s no avoiding that.
Interestingly we have a name on the equipment that Ole Miss uses and it comes from Wilder Fitness, and I can’t find anything on their site that remotely looks like this dong machine. It’s remarkable. Which leads me to believe that this might be a custom Lane Kiffin original design, which might be even more terrifying.
Obviously the internet had every joke imaginable when Ole Miss posted this.
I think the comments about the color here are all very salient. Why in the world did they need to be a flesh tone? If these were just blue or red, or a mix of the two it would be totally fine. I’m sure there is a color of vulcanized rubber for this drill that doesn’t make it look like a phallus — but nah, they went with this one.
Keep grinding, Ole Miss.
