I can now see the window opening that may get UNM removed from SEC

[Indndawg]

I always thought these post were silly until this last week, with allegations coming left and right. Moreover, potentially serious crimes were committed by boosters, coaches, and cover up by admins on a Watergate scale.

If these charges of: hookers, salacious goings on w/HS girls in Memphis, cheating on ACT, pay to play, and there is so much more smoke...come to fruition; I think there will some serious thought of simply banning Mississippi from the privilege of being a member of the SEC.

There is coming a seminal moment where college presidents are gonna have to seriously think about removing such an embarrassment to their conference. I laughed at talk of the DP; now I blv it will happen. I then laughed at the thought of UNM being removed; now I think its at least in play.

Some parts of me want UNM to kicked out for years; some parts of me want them to stay and take brutal beatings week after week. Still, I know this: I want their Rebel Nation to grovel and publicly admit they are cheaters and need to spend quality time (collectively) facing the man in the mirror.

The hostage video and Bjerk's remarks about remaining in the SEC and the NCAA was evidently a bit of foreshadowing. I'm not sure the exact comments, but you all know what I'm referring. It's like maybe he knew much more then than he's now willing to let be known.

If they get more than a one year death penalty, now or when this 2nd/3rd NOA that's seeming more and more likely comes down in a few years, I think it's almost certain they get kicked from the SEC. Faced with a multi-year TV and scheduling dilemma with so many willing prospective replacements around, combined with the years of embarrassment, I think it would be a no-brainer.

I think we are definitely looking at the possibility of a 2 year death penalty at this point. If they get a 3rd NOA it's done deal.

A 3rd NOA will have them kicked out of the NCAA. Continued blatant disregard for the rules and policies by multiple administrations. During an active investigation.

I never thought about banishment from NCAA.....yuge,,,,yuge

[Dawgology]

I tried to tell y'all they would be lucky to stay in the SEC...

[Indndawg]

I know you did and I was highly skeptical, but there's been a steady preponderance of evidence that just keeps coming in waves that makes me blv, now

[Dawgology]

I guess I'm not saying it's "likely" but if you can't see this storm that is building you are blind. Ole Miss could successfully navigate it and come out with just scholarship losses, bowl bans, and show causes but if they bungle it further (which appears to be their MO) it could really escalate into a loss of membership and potentially academic accreditation.

If they lose status in the SEC it will kill the University of Mississippi as we know it. They will be lucky to hang on in the Sun Belt , that is if they will take them, they can't afford to go the independent route. This will inevitably lead to a loss of student population. You reap what you sow shitbirds.

If Penn State didnt get kicked out of the Big 10 for what it covered up, then no one is getting kicked out of any conference.

Unfortunately, this is probably true...

Penn State has ten times the prestige of ole miss.

They have a lot more than just prestige. They are the only Big 10 school in the state of Pennsylvania, which includes the Pittsburgh and Philadelphia TV markets. Each conference member would lose a ton of TV revenue from the B1G network if Penn State was kicked out. Such a condition does not help Ole Miss because they are not the only SEC school in MS, and there are no major TV markets in MS either. I would argue they will get kicked out for that reason alone if a death penalty is dropped on them.

Simply put, there are 12 SEC schools that don't want there to be 2 SEC schools in MS, and would move immediately kick either OM or MSU out at the first available opportunity. That opportunity may be coming up.

Even with the rapes. Penn State is still greater than Ole Miss. Although there have not been any rape allegations against UM, that is how much they are irrelevant.

Exactly

[SheltonChoked]

Exactly

Except, what happened at Penn State did not violate NCAA rules. Laws? Yes. And it could be tied back to one person. Penn State is apples and oranges for the Ole Miss case. It's an insult to those victims to try and link them.

Who is linking them? That makes no sense whatsoever. The arguement is if that didn't get PSU kicked out this won't even come close. What PSU did is much, much, worse.

But nothing Penn State did was under the jurisdiction of the NCAA.

I agree what Penn State did was much much worse. It broke many State laws. However, the NCAA had a small issue. Rape of children is not an offense listed in the NCAA bylaws.
