reliable Ole Miss leg with proven SEC pedigree
In the 2009 season, Joshua Shene was a steady, experienced kicker for Ole Miss, ranking among the Rebels’ most trusted scoring options and earning preseason Lou Groza Award contender attention[11][15]. He brings compact, repeatable mechanics, clutch-range comfort, and a track record of handling pressure in the SEC, including a career that featured long field goals and All-SEC recognition[3][15]. For a team, that means a kicker with real game-week reliability and enough consistency to matter when drives stall—exactly the kind of specialist who quietly wins close games[10][15].
