OT: Ole Miss Confirms Tunsil's Text Messages "Did Happen"

Submitted by FauxMo on

...but are still looking to confirm they were "not altered" before being published on Instagram.

Not exactly sure how those two things go together - either they happened or they didn't - but maybe this means they have confirmed Tunsil sent and received texts to that number on those days and times, but cannot get the actual transcript of what was said (I know mobile companies don't keep texts forever). Regardless, Ole Miss is running out of wiggle room. Now, will the NCAA get it right, or will the investigation take 4 years and result in no real punishment?

I don't know. The symbolism says "denial", and indeed this is a protest as someone mentioned, but at the same time, the fact that he has his pants down indicates to me that this man is not in denial - symbolic or otherwise - and indeed he REALLY would like to let someone know what is going on. It is a look designed to stand out, and we can only wonder if it did.

That go as far as paying players money should be barred from ever coaching again. I mean look as this shit. Coaches like Freeze just teach kids that's it's okay to not play by the rules. It's okay to cheat, to fraud, to not do your part and be a honest actor in life.

4 years and no real punishment.

ESPN is also reporting that "heavy rains in the Houston area last month probably related to severe flash flooding." So many stunners today.

at least before his divorce, afterwards he somehow got more creepy, perverted, and became completely unwatcheable. I was not a fan of Will Ferrell's character, he had a couple funny moments but overall I thought he was pretty "meh".

Either way, you could tell the show had run its course when they started manufacturing relationship issues just to keep the dialogue fresh

It would've been worse if Will Ferrell was full time. The biggest mistake they made was Andy Bernard. They changed the character too often and then abandoned his plot lines and made him entirely unsympathetic without being villainous. He was just, annoying and hard to care for or about.

Even if the texts were deleted, you can still get the texts off the phone. It can be confirmed as long as it's been a reasonable amount of time since the texts were sent.

can control the spin.  After the crap at Ohio State, about face w/Penn State, (Jamis Winston) FSU, past Ole Miss issues, The Cam Newton auction, the Louisville hooker fest, the Syracuse/North Carolina Final 4 hypocricy, I don't see much coming from the NCAA.

Totally hypocritical, don't actually mean anything they say, believe the "rules" are for everyone else, not them,  and only go hard on the easy target.
