Hammer coming down on Ole Miss?

Mississippi Valley State's women's fencing team is gonna get the death penalty.

The NCAA has no interest in enforcing if guys get a lil cash so who cares? If you can't beat em join em. Although we did beat ''them'' if you count Florida. 

If the NCAA didn't continue sanctions on a program that added, abetted, and shielded a sexual predator, what makes you think they would hammer a program like Ole Miss?

Actually, Ole Miss seems exactly the type of program the NCAA seems to like to puff their chest out over. They are good, but not great. They have very little historical significance. So, the NCAA can look tough without actually hurting themselves. No way in hell they bring the hammer down on USC, OSU, Bama or the like. Ole Miss, on the other hand, means the big bad NCAA can look tough.

I'm not saying it's absolutely going to happen. I'm just saying I would be worried if I were an Ole Miss supporter. They simply aren't relevant enough to ensure a slap on the wrist.

SEC normal news. No enforcement will happen as everyone is too worried about Harbaugn and satellite camps and working the players too hard over spring break and signing of the stars.

All seems like much to do over nothing. Does anyone really think anything of note will come of this?

why do you want to destroy Ole Miss? You have some grudge against them?

A football player just happened to get an illegal ride from a booster. I'm sure that's all that happened. This is just ridiculous, why else would a booster be driving a recruit around if it wasn't to hand off a payment? On a separate note, For all those bashing the NCAA about enforcement, first let me say I consider much of what they do stupid. That said, it's important for people to understand their limits. The NCAA does not have legal authority to enforce an investigation like the police. College institutions agree to be governed by the NCAA but are responsible for reporting against themselves. When wrong doing is suspected, in agreement with the school in question, the NCAA is allowed to come in and gather as much info as possible, but it is still contingent on what the schools are willing to share within freedom of information act laws.

I wish, but not likely.

Andy Staples's 7 rules on how to cheat

http://www.si.com/more-sports/2011/07/05/cheating-dummies

I cant find the article, but I remember him also writing one saying that the only way to ever win at Mississippi State or Ole Miss consistently is to cheat... 

So Andy Staples may be Hugh Freeze?

 

Somebody said that the football team would not be implicated in this investigation. They also said the football teams current coach would not be involved in anything, if there were violations they would be on the last staff and other sports programs.

Now we see 1. that in fact it is this staff and 2. that most of the violations were on the football team, not others. I think something is about to break in Mssissippi and it wont be good.

 

Any chance players can get out of their LOI and go elsewhere because of this?

Id sure like to pick up a certain offensive lineman with NO MONY DOWN!!!!!

Time to reap what you sow.

Nope. They had a top 5 class again and will next year too.

No, will be busy evaluating proposals to ban spring practice over spring break.

ESPN won't let it happen.

Montana A&M better watch the fuck out. They are about to get it.

After the Manziel thing, PSU, UNC, Miami, and so on, why should anyone be led to believe the NCAA has any teeth? My guess is they lose a scholarship or two and are put on probabation, whatever that means. Their investigations are a joke since they have no subpeona power and every party involved has an interest in saying nothing.

If they get more then a slap on the hand. SEC makes too much money for the NCAA and they aren't going to come down hard on them.  Probably something like probation and limited on campus visits for a couple of years.

It's frustrating to know of blatant violations being dealt with unequivocal punishments
