They 'requested' him to go. He isn't obligated from what I understand. If I was his attorney I'd say "17 that".

And you'll lose eligibility too if you did that.
Who is they? OM or the NCAA? If the NCAA requested, then he will have to be there. If OM requested, the NCAA still has to approve. Either way, it has to go through the NCAA to be "officially requested".
Hell, he should just go. This is just a Hail Mary by Ole Miss that,in all likelihood,will make them look even more desperate and foolish. This is part of their "save Freeze at any cost" approach they cooked up and now cannot abandon, despite the fact Freeze is gone. The NCAA has already rejected their arguments, and the rest is just a formality.
Keep in mind, in the second paragraph of their response to the NCAA, Ole Miss admitted that the violations continued during the time the NCAA was on campus. That, in my opinion, was the most damning admission of the entire investigation, and I have yet to hear any Ole Miss apologist address it. No matter how much makeup you put on a pig, at the end of the day, it is still a pig. I was very skeptical about whether Ole Miss would be branded with the "Scarlet Letter" (LOIC) until I read that admission. That one sentence in the second paragraph "stood out like a turd in a punch bowl", and after reading it, I knew Ole Miss was done.
Note the dates. Request was made in May by NCAA. OM received their rejection from NCAA last week. They're spinning this like it's a recent request.
The NCAA wiped their ass with it and mailed it to OM. Can't wait to see you at the COI
Not that I'm buying this and I'm sure it would have come out long before now, but if that little rumor from a coach at another school that was recruiting LL that has been around for a while now about LL's recruitment was a NCAA plant and it would be revealed at the COI as fact, my my talk about UNM rueing the day.
