NCAA does day on their website that it can take as much as 10 weeks for a ruling. That would put them in early December. Once they rule the NCAA also states it gives the school ONE hour to prepare a media response after being handed the findings. That's right ONE. And ole miss nor anyone else will know the results before that time as they are not allowed to communicate. At that time they have mere days to file an appeal.

My guess is Thamel is predicting the appeal and the amount of time to have it heard and ruled upon and added that to the 10 week wait for the ruling.
