Ben Garrett of the Ole Miss Spirit/On3 is joined by Illinois transfer outfielder Daniel Pacella in this edition of Talk of Champions, powered by RiverLand Roofing. 

Pacella was a first-team All-MVC selection last season and signed on with Ole Miss last month. He started all 56 games in left field for the Redbirds and totaled 59 RBI, the seventh-most in a single season in program history. He led the team with a .355 batting average.

Pacella had 41 extra-base hits, including 20 home runs, the second-most in a single season for a Redbird. He finished second all-time at Illinois State in career home runs (45) and RBI (169). He was a back-to-back all-conference honoree.

Pacella explains why he chose Ole Miss over LSU, Mississippi State and others, his mindset entering the MLB Draft and much, much more. Veteran Rebel slugger Will Furniss even makes a guest appearance.
