[DoctorDawg]

He was recruiting coordinator at UNM from 08 to 11?

[Mjoelner34]

http://texas.247sports.com/Article/Chris-Vaughn-Texas-Longhorns-to-part-ways--43639044

"Many of the violations involve the staff of current Rebel head coach Hugh Freeze, but per an ESPN report, four of the violations are attached to former Ole Miss staffers under former Rebel head coach Houston Nutt.

Vaughn coached for the Rebels from 2008 to 2011 and served as the team’s defensive backs coach and recruiting coordinator. Sources tell Horns247 the facts against Vaughn “were damning."

[Commercecomet24]

How far and how deep does this thing go? Holy crap!

[DoctorDawg]

Nevermind. Just read the article. Could get nasty.

[was21]

We will probably never know. What the NCAA has found is probably just the tip of the iceberg. Unfortunately, they don't have ice breakers like the coast guard does and won't cut thru the ice much less dive into the water to find the enormity of it.

[Commercecomet24]

It appears obvious that Texas has seen the noa. They would've had too to know the facts were "damning". That noa must contain some nasty stuff. Can't wait!

I think i got this figured out.

1. Tell the current coach you will pay him his contract fully for the next 4 years if he will cheat his eyeballs out for the last two.

2. Fire him for doing it. Fire his Ad too.

3. Look for a local televangelist, we'll call him Stu Breeze. Hire him as HC.

4. Continue to cheat but only admit to #1.

Whalla.......guaranteed 9 wins.

What am i missing?

They don't need the whole iceberg. They just need enough to set the program back a decade.

They FBI didn't need proof of all of Capone's murders either. They just needed enough to lock him up.

[cheewgumm]

I nkow the answer to this one...


"THAT'S OLD...pre-Freeze. so what?!?! "

Well wouldn't the coach have received a copy if he was named? Guess the question is did UT get a copy as well or did he just come clean before hand.

[ElitedawgRecruiting]

With all due respect to Bjork, he didn't see his coming. He was busy threatening a fan on Twitter.

[Commercecomet24]

Good question but obviously they've seen it or know what's in it and it doesn't sound good for our friends up north.

[RougeDawg]

Sure seems like an extreme move by Texas on such minor infractions.

[Bass Chaser]

I read somewhere there was a coach named but it was redacted. Who could this be?

[Jack Lambert]

If Texas is firing him he did something real bad while at Ole Miss. Kind of like the USM basketball coach after getting to Tenn.

Agree. Maybe if UT has a copy they will just give the Bears a kick to the nuts and "comply" with a FOI request from their reporters to get it out there in public. Bjork would then have to pick a Twitter fight with UT. Somebody make that happen please.

[DoctorDawg]

Im sure they won't stonewall. Especially if it smacks a SEC team.

Om has gotten some really good recruits out of Texas. There's no doubt in my mind that Texas would love to release the NOA if they actually have it... May just be Vaughn got a copy

[Liverpooldawg]

I wonder how employable anyone who has been in the UM athletic department will be after all this settles? Interesting development.

[Dawg496]

As a Texas resident, I'm filing a request with UT. Will keep you all posted.

Can someone post a list of the coaches at ole miss during the time that overlaps with this guy and Saunders? Those buttholes will be getting mighty tight

[messageboardsuperhero]

I know this looks bad, but this is actually good news for UM. They knew about it all along and are not surprised. This is just more good fortune in a string of outstanding events these past couple of weeks for everyone in the UM athletic department- what a great day to be a rebal. Hobby Lobby.

Weigh the gravity of this for a moment - Texas stacks up the best talent in the state on a regular basis. Have no doubt they provide incentives but they don't have to go all in like UNM.

They let a coach go for past indiscretions at another school and he is an assistant - 'damning evidence?' Texas has every major paper in this state at their beck and call. No reason to fear being reported within the borders of the state. They got spooked.

How damn bad has it got to be for Texas to have enough fear about keeping the guy on staff for fear of guilt by association?

Every program wets the beaks of these kids but what is UNM doing//done that could prompt that kind of response - we are talking 4-5 years ago when he was last there. Really?

Buy stock in small brown paper bag manufacturing companies - UNM folks going to be hyperventilating into them soon.

Vaughn is getting a show cause. That's usually why they are immediately terminated. Keep finding the links NCAA.

The ACT thing is scathing. You're talking about academic integrity. Texas knows like no other team that lawsuits can be filed if one student thinks other students are getting in when they are not qualified.

Also, let's get this straight. We now have 2 coaches under Hugh Freeze nailed for cheating but Saint Archie says Pastor Hugh is an innocent victim of jealousy. Yea right? OM is about to burn.

[DawgPoundtheRock]

this thing is sorta becoming like a hand grenade. You better duck because you don't know where the shrapnel is going. Any school who has a former OM athletic department member on their staff better duck. Texas did.

One grain of sand is nearly undetectable. However, a bunch of grains of sand make a beach. Ole Miss is standing on Probation Beach, and the NCAA is slowly but surely plucking each grain of sand out from underneath Ole Miss's feet.

Both coaches were under Nutt

[Commercecomet24]

Everyday something new and damning is coming out about the Bears. It's starting to get serious and only a matter of time before it all leaks out. There's too much starting to come out for their spin machine to keep up with. Everyday brings something that takes another little piece out of the bear armor. If there really is nothing serious in that noa like they keep saying they better release it because everyday the ship is springing a new leak!

[Liverpooldawg]

Both coaches were under Nutt

USCw says: SO?

[Technetium]

Obviously they will be punished despite this guy coaching under the old staff, but it will probably be less severe than if the NCAA had caught him red handed while at TSUN. However, should any other Level I violations come to light that implicates the current staff (not sure Tunsil alone would be enough), I can't see how TSUN survives in any meaningful way. No way the NCAA would let that go without history-making sanctions.

[Really Clark?]

USCw says: SO?

I didn't say it made a difference, did I. But they were not under Freeze like the post stated.

We should have a pinned thread keeping score of the fallout across all places of this investigation. Like so far firings related to: Ginny Crager, David Saunders, Chris Vaughn...

As they become public, that is. And list all the <redacted> as well..

[Covercorner2]

Unless I am mistaken, I don't think Saunders or Vaughn were ever with Freeze at OM

Who was that QB ole miss got from Texas that was a sure thing? Think he left after three continuously worse years, and went undrafted?

Believe Saunders was under Bucky's pelt for at least a year before he got his first gig but I may be wrong. Maybe I'm confusing O and Bucky and then learning from each other.

They were both assistants at OM in 2006, but Saunders left for ULL in 2011. Freeze didn't get to OM until 2012. At least according to Wikipedia. I'm not a bear and not even sure if it matters (see: USC), just trying to get the facts straight and connect the dots.

Meanwhile in Texas there's a "brewing Ole Miss scandal."

The Ledger when it's all said and done will run a story on how Freeze was the reason all this came to light because of his Christian values. He was just doing the right thing and baptizing the program for a new beginning. Sounds crazy but you know it's a legit possibility.

My bad. It still suck for OM. They're busted with "damning" activity under Nutt and they still have 13 violations under Freeze. This isn't a "loss" of institutional control. This is institutionalized cheating. It's kind of like a "pattern of willful violations".

Freeze and Saunders teamed up to get Powe into OM. Before that, Hugh and Sean Tuoghy had developed a "program" to Oher qualified.

We know Ginny Crager helped with Powe's ACT in Waynesboro. I've never been able to find out where Oher took his ACT.

Sadly, you're 100% correct. Bookmark this thread. That'll happen.

[ShotgunDawg]

In regards to the Texas coach getting fired, the deeper the NCAA digs & the more people that are fired, it stands to reason that these people aren't going to just see their careers go up in flames without naming names & blaming their actions on the culture at Ole Miss.

Not saying that will get Ole Miss worse sanctions, but it's going to start snowballing.

[Jacksondevildog]

I don't understand how their fans can look at the smoke that is starting to billow and believe that nothing will happen. Simply unreal.

If former coaches being dismissed and getting show causes is a great thing as Salee says, then UM may finally win a championship of some kind in football!! Why didn't Saban or Meyer ever think of that? Cause they're stupid of course!
