Elements of their fan base are brain-dead.

I just doubt there's anything to this.. Especially if OM decided to self-report it..

[Mimi's Babies]

Well.... lets wait and see... Where oh where is the twitter page... seems to be missing today..

Is the "self reporting" part confirmed?

[mstatefan91]

Is the "self reporting" part confirmed?

Bjork said they self-reported it and that it would be considered a level 3 violation.. But ya know, he hasn't exactly been honest in the past.

From the clarion-ledger..

https://www.clarionledger.com/story/...ies/806787002/

"Bjork confirmed to the Clarion Ledger that Ole Miss recently submitted a self-report to the SEC that exposed a group of fans improperly contacting recruits through Twitter. The NCAA has rules against fans and boosters promoting their school to recruits in any way through social media. In addition, this particular violation involved “direct” and “deliberate” contact, Bjork said. According to Bjork, the incident occurred this winter. He described Ole Miss' response as “standard reporting” of a level 3 violation (the lowest on the scale)."

"Group of fans" sounds like something that was more of a network than individual rogues.

[Bully13]

"groups of fans" setting up private chat rooms. ok.

[TrapGame]

"groups of fans" setting up private chat rooms. ok.

Rules out a singular "rogue booster". A believe a group of rogue boosters might be called a conspiracy. Seems that that should warrant a little higher than a level 3.

1. Is OM not on probation?
2. What is the definition of probation?

And...aren't continuing offenses during probation considered at greater levels of severity? Hmmmmm? I believe they are.

If you are already on probation this ain't no level 3.

C'mon NCAA do your damn job!

[Jack Lambert]

I bet every SEC message board is going to light up over this. They are some stupid. But on the other hand they only got thump on the wrist last time so why not?

That's kind of where I am at on it.

Chuck just confirmed at least one adult booster spoke about impermissible benefits with a recruit.....but it's secondary in nature and nothing to see here.

#repeatoffenderstatus

This offense was reported to have happened with the December 2017 early signees group. In that group was a bunch of 3 star but also two 4 stars, QB-Matt Corral and WR-Elijah Moore. Hmmm....

[Really Clark?]

There is no such designation as major or minor anymore. You have Levels. Level 1 being the most egregious of violations down to Level 4 which is the least. A Level 3 is handled by the enforcement staff and does not go before the COI. To trigger the repeat offender clause it would have to be classified as a Level 2 or higher. Now just because they self reported it as a Level 3 doesn’t mean the enforcement staff doesn’t reclassify it later during the investigation but if you want to look at Level 3 & 4’s as minor and Level 1 & 2’s as major that would be apportiate for discussions just not official classifications

[chainedup_Dawg]

somebody correct me if I'm wrong but is this an instance where OM is self reporting it as a level 3 but the NCAA could very well come back and say no, dumbasses, try level 1 under current probation? don't get me wrong, I fully expect the NCAA to shit the bed and do nothing, just a thought.

So it's like admitting to the cops you were speeding but you've got kilo of coke in your trunk you don't want to talk about.

That would explain why Ole Miss is classifying this as a level 3 violation.
