Ole Miss Running A Prison Up There?

[bobtail bob]

I hope Mars sues yancy and takes his trailer and his Dodge neon

[Political Hack]

If he?s defending Ole Miss over this it has to be because they?re requesting that the NCAA block Mars requests for transfers. Would seem to be strange considering they just agreed with Mars that they could transfer.

My guess is they didn't realize how bad it was going to be. They probably just figured it would be Shea and Jefferson and then the 8 others that Garrett mentioned a week or so ago. Now they are losing those guys plus one of their top corners in Jones and probably Greg Little among others.

If these transfers follow through it's almost like the NCAA passively aggressively put them on probation by allowing mass transfers and then just hit them light on scholarhip reductions.

I can’t count the number of times Yancy has argued that something won’t stick, that the lawsuit will clear something up, or that UM is working “creatively” to get out of something and been dead wrong. He’s dead wrong here too.

UM is finally up against a real lawyer and a real powerhouse athletic and academic school is making them their bitches.

[TXDawg]

I think what they’re attempting to fight is not the transfers themselves, but the ide that the NCAA will grant transfers without requiring the player to sit a year.

UMiss has granted unconditional transfers, but they can’t waive the “sit a year” penalty. That’s up to the NCAA and that’s what Mars is working on.

Mars should just threaten to sue the NCAA. The NCAA will cave and grant waivers to people that didn't even request them. Threatening to sue seems to have worked for OM.

would be curious as to what the 1959 infraction was.

Lance Allworth - he was a helluva receiver for the Chargers. Held the record for 1000 yard receiving seasons in a row (7), until Rice broke it. Tied with Megatron with most career 200 yard games. Chargers retired his number.

Believe it or not, it was for adopting a HS football star to get him to go to OM. I believe the player was Lance Allworth, who went to OM, got married, was kicked off the team by Vaught, and went on to star for Arkansas.

Here's the 1959 NCAA report:

Their playbook hasn?t changed much over the years. Geez

His nickname was Bambi cause he was fast and graceful as a deer.

Because the University of Mississippi would not allow married students on the football team (Alworth had married while he was still in high school), Alworth chose UA, where he played for Frank Broyles. Alworth starred as a running back and led the nation?s college players in punt return yardage in 1960 and 1961. A marketing major, he was named an Academic All-American in 1961.


WHEREAS, the University'
s representative in this case, an alumnus, apparently did not provide
any assistance to the prospective student-athlete until after he (the alumnus) had been legally
established as the prospective student-athlete's guardian, the guardianship decree being granted
December 24, 1957, following conclusion of the prospect's senior football season;



WHEREAS, the financial assistance awarded by the university subsequently was cancelled
because the young man became married during the summer of l958, thus violating one of the
conditions of the university's award;

WAOM began with Lance Allworth

[Bully13]

yep. Vaught would take the QB's and RB's and make linebackers out of them.
