Ole Miss being investigated by NCAA
Can't link from phone, but the player who was involved in the domestic violence case with his stepfather is alleged by said stepfather to have had his transcript falsified and gotten money and gifts from both the University and agents. I for one will be SHOCKED if any of this is true. (Insert Treadwell/bagman/Hugh Freese joke here.). Granted the stepfather has a good reason to make player look bad, but it rings absolutely true to me.
And they land all those top recruits the day before NSD, yet they were never mentioned as even being in on these guys all year long.
Nothing shady going on there. No, sir. Nothing at all.
The same could be said about a once proud football program and a once respected coach fighting to save his job and he suddenly signs the best cornerback in the country amidst a losing season, couldn't they? just pointing out what some schools could be thinking about jabril peppers and derick green. although in the green case most all the top schools cooled on him in the end. TOSU signed Ezekiel Elliot instead.
And in other news, the sun will come up tomorrow. SEC! SEC!
Until parents and/or their kids who commit to this school or any other school (insert...SEC) that is doing this crap get a clue and realize there's no such thing as an overnight success, then we'll continue to see this headline...with nothing whatsoever being done to change it.
SNAFU.
*SHOCKED*
/s
I don't think anyone here is going to be surprised by this, or the fact that the NCAA isn't going to do a damn thing about it.
From the USA Today story upthread....
But on Thursday, Miller told The Clarion-Ledger that, in addition to the contact made by agents, he is aware of violations that occurred during Tunsil's recruitment as well, including claims of falsified academic records and gifts made by the university.
Ole Miss offering recruits the three-piece lounge suite AND the car in exchange for a commitment to their fine institution? Never have I heard such a story in the SEC....today anyway.

I have a hard time believing anything will come of this. If the NCAA hasn't seen good reason to investigate Ole Miss up to this point, methinks it isn't going to start now.
That said, whoof. That is not a good situation at all down there in Oxford.
The best part is that I just GIS'd "Laquan Treadwell" straight up, with no qualifiers, and this was the third thing that showed up.
The second thing was the pic with him and the Ole Miss "hostess" girls on his recruiting trip that was posted earlier.
like I'm doing here with this link to a random article about bad Ole Miss behavior:

Meh... most schools were racist as fuck back in the day... Granted the southern SEC ones took it to the next extreme.
Shit I'm still shocked black players go to Kentucky considering their demigod Adolph Rupp was a racist piece of shit too.
Five years ago I was on a work assignment in Mississippi, in a town comprised of mostly AAs, and had plenty of racism thrown my way because I look white even though I'm only half white.
I actually hate when I hear someone tell other people that, secretly, the teller knows more about them than they do. Example: ""Yes, yes you are [racist]."
Arguments by assertion are never very persuasive. Asinine arguments by assertion are never ever persuasive.
"Race" is a social construct. Neither race nor racism are biological and thus intrinsic to humans.You're confusing words together.
Everyone is not racist. People don't inherently believe one race is better than the other from the onset of birth...
People are prone to stereotyping (brown ppl talk like Apu) and prejudice (negative attitude towards said brown ppl) which can lead to discrimination (putting up an English please sign on a door) unintentionally or intentionally... If intentional, can deff lead to racism (my race is superior to yours') down the road...
And that 180 was pulled in like one day, right on the cusp of NSD.
So . . . .you don't even have Ole Miss on your radar and suddenly they overtake your favorite of the last entire year right before NSD?
Okaaaay. Sure.
Plenty of time to circle the wagons. On the bright side, Ole Miss doesn't strike me as the type to have boosters with juice for more than one or two golden classes.

They don't have Michigan resources, but they still have plenty.
