Coaches typically stick up for their players, and Ole Miss offensive coordinator Kent Austin is obviously tired of hearing about all the theories on junior quarterback Jevan Snead.

Snead has thrown an SEC-high 13 interceptions, prompting several in the media and several analysts to suggest that Snead has a habit of locking in on guys.

Listen to what Austin had to say about the "locking in" theory thanks to David Brandt's blog. Brandt covers Ole Miss for The Jackson Clarion-Ledger.

But I know they're analysts -- what a joke."
