I also love sports, so you&#8217;ll see a pattern. We&#8217;ll do this Late Show-style, but there&#8217;s no particular order.<\/p>\n<p>10. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RedCupRebellion\" target=\"_blank\">@RedCupRebellion<\/a> &#8211; This often sarcastic (but always relevant) account puts you in the shoes of die-hard Rebel fans who have a knack for content. They&#8217;re always tweeting links to their blog, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.redcuprebellion.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.redcuprebellion.com\/<\/a>, and talk a lot of truth.<\/p>\n<p>9. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/UMFordCenter\" target=\"_blank\">@UMFordCenter<\/a> &#8211; Good updates and show announcements from the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fordcenter.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Gertrude C. Ford Center for Performing Arts<\/a>. Prior to the birth of Twitter, there would have been plenty of times I would have missed some epic acts on campus, but not anymore.<\/p>\n<p>8. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RebVoice\" target=\"_blank\">@RebVoice<\/a> &#8211; A world-class announcer who has chronicled classic Ole Miss moments for more than 30 years, David Kellum even shares some great photos from field-level prior to and after big games. Check out his c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.telesouth.com\/images\/admin\/spotedit\/attach\/0\/ole_miss_vandy_ending_.mp3\" target=\"_blank\">all from the Ole Miss vs. Vanderbilt basketball game back in 2013<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>7. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OleMissPres\" target=\"_blank\">@OleMissPres<\/a> &#8211; \u00a0Should you ever need to know what&#8217;s affecting students on campus, this account for the acting Ole Miss Associated Student Body President should be your source.<\/p>\n<p>6. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CoachHughFreeze\" target=\"_blank\">@CoachHughFreeze<\/a> &#8211; Each morning, I wake up and am greeted on Twitter with tweets of inspiration from Ole Miss head football coach Hugh Freeze. Ever met a Twitter-savvy coach? They are few and far between, but Coach Freeze is certainly one of them. We&#8217;re lucky to have him in our social circle.<\/p>\n<p>5. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OleMissRebels\" target=\"_blank\">@OleMissRebels<\/a> &#8211; I know, I know. How dare I include the official university Twitter account run by our department? I would respond by saying we try to share things that interest the entire Ole Miss community.<\/p>\n<p>4. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OleMissPix\" target=\"_blank\">@OleMissPix<\/a> &#8211; Love photography? Ole Miss Athletics photographer Josh McCoy attends nearly every home (and many away) sporting events and shares many of his photos via Twitter. He even catches some <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/OleMissPix\/status\/442469880873238528\" target=\"_blank\">non-athletic activities during athletic events<\/a>, which is definitely unique.<\/p>\n<p>3. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/potlikker\" target=\"_blank\">@potlikker<\/a> &#8211; When photography, Twitter, southern food and beverages meet, it&#8217;s an amalgamation of amazing-ness which comes in the form of the official account of the Southern Foodways Alliance.<\/p>\n<p>2. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/thedm_news\" target=\"_blank\">@thedm_news<\/a> &#8211; Always willing to tackle the tough issues, the Ole Miss student-run newspaper (<a href=\"http:\/\/thedmonline.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">The Daily Mississippian<\/a>) breaks news that campus constituents care about. A good feed to follow for a balance of sports, news, editorial and features content.<\/p>\n<p>1. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/olemissalumni\" target=\"_blank\">@OleMissAlumni<\/a> &#8211; They give away free stuff, share Instagram photos from around campus and they overuse the hashtag #hottytoddy.
