Ole Miss Charged with Lack of Institutional Control
Pre Bruce Feldman, the NCAA has levied new charges against Ole Miss which include the dreaded Lack of Institutional Control and a charge against Hugh Freeze for violating head coach responsibility legislation.
If the charges against Freeze stick he would be given a show-cause penalty and his tenure at Ole Miss would be finished.
Ole Miss has already self-imposed a 1-year post-season ban and will lose around 7.8 million dollars in SEC football revenue.

...who resented satellite camps because it took time from his family. Starting to look like family time will not be an issue for Hugh in the near future.

“From the moment I arrived in December 2011, I have emphasized to all of my staff that our program is founded on certain core values — faith, attitude, mental toughness, integrity and love,”
He has every right to talk about his faith, but it shouldn't be a core value of a program at a public school.

It's true. They held church services on the House floor until after the Civil War.

I remember standing, putting my hand over my heart, and saying "One Nation Under God..." every single day in my public / state funded school.
February 22nd, 2017 at 10:07 PM ^
"under god" part was shoehorned in, in the 50's.
February 22nd, 2017 at 10:52 PM ^
Yes, but it's still there today.

That's good stuff Michrider41.
May conflict with the others a bit, but whatever works

If you have facts about a violation, send it to [email protected]. If not, please do not slander these young men or insult their family

Should those still be sent in, by chance?
February 22nd, 2017 at 8:44 PM ^
I totally agree
February 22nd, 2017 at 6:49 PM ^
and then stick it up your ass, Pete.
February 22nd, 2017 at 7:20 PM ^
Those same things, but in the opposite order.
February 22nd, 2017 at 9:44 PM ^
Do you find Hugh Freeze interesting, Pawlll? Is this entertaining? Pawlllll? PAWWWLLLLLL?

Think of how much time he would have for his kids
February 22nd, 2017 at 5:19 PM ^
February 22nd, 2017 at 5:25 PM ^
He'd have time for that at the Mississippi mountain resorts. That much we know.
February 22nd, 2017 at 9:05 PM ^
he could really make that happen.

that Hugh Freeze was going off on people for suggesting they broke rules and challenged people to prove it... Hmmmm. wonder what he is saying now....
February 22nd, 2017 at 6:23 PM ^
just found one at Ole Miss.
February 23rd, 2017 at 12:00 AM ^
More like an entire oak tree.
February 22nd, 2017 at 7:20 PM ^
Probably going off on people for suggesting they broke the rules and challenging people to prove it....

Dear Mr. Emmert:

That's the kicker in this case. The Tunsil stuff from draft night isn't even mentioned in these allegations. There was something with a fishy loaner car that he was suspended for years ago, but nothing about the texts.
There was enough violations from Football, Track, and WBB without it. That's why it's stupid of Ole Miss to fight this, when they are getting off relatively easy still.
The money hurts, but it's easy to self-impose a bowl ban when you aren't going to make one anyways. I would certainly hope that the NCAA takes a bunch of scholarships too.
February 22nd, 2017 at 5:46 PM ^
Bruce Feldman just Tweeted that NONE of this has anything to do with Tunsil/Draft Night ...Ole Miss gonna be in some hot water there, boy!
February 22nd, 2017 at 5:51 PM ^
From what I gander the NCAA convinced recruits who picked other schools to talk to them about their Ole Miss recruitment in exchange for immunity.
February 22nd, 2017 at 5:58 PM ^
Yep.
"NCAA alledges #OleMiss staffer connected a recruit to 2 boosters who paid the kid $13,000-$15,600 (AND that player didn't even sign with OM)"
So this means two things: 1. Ole Miss REALLY sucks at cheating. 2. The team the kid did sign with most likely just out bid them, and there will be no repercussions for it because of the immunity deal.
February 22nd, 2017 at 7:20 PM ^
February 23rd, 2017 at 9:28 AM ^
The astonishing part is the NCAA has to realize if these kids got over $10K from Ole Miss and went somewhere else they were clearly outbid. Yet it will stop with Ole Miss.
Just goes to show it's not about cheating, it's about being obvious when cheating. That'll teach 'em a lesson for sure.

It was Rashan Gary and he was coming to Michigan all along...

Wish OSU would have seen the same fate under Tressel...Instead they had 1 bad year under Fickell then upgraded to Meyer.
And PSU still having a football program is an absolute travesty.
February 22nd, 2017 at 5:36 PM ^
What fate did OSU see? As is currently, OSU got hit harder than Ole Miss. OSU had 2 years of a postseason ban, lost scholarships, and Tressel received a show-cause (which is how they got Fickell and then Meyer). They just lucked into Meyer being available.
February 22nd, 2017 at 5:46 PM ^
They made the questionable decision not to take it Fickell's season.

February 22nd, 2017 at 5:49 PM ^
Ohio State got off easy. They played their hand perfectly by getting rid of the main culprits and using the "think of the children!" defense. The real bad guys are gone, don't punish these poor kids who didn't do anything!
Ole Miss is doing the opposite. They're dedicated to going down swinging on this one.
February 23rd, 2017 at 11:57 AM ^
Except they didn't get rid of Tressel, he was allowed to retire.
