The lack of coverage of the Ole Miss recruiting scandal by the CL is beyond reprehensible.

There is literally zero news to report. They can't report message board "rumors"

No, but they can investigate. The CL is a joke.

I understand the point of no story today... BUT... There's been dozens of opportunities to update this 4 year ongoing saga that have just mysteriously floated right by the CL. It took national news outlets to break the story after months of us, here at Elitedawgs, telling everyone what was going on. They have purposely ignored it.

To be fair Tiger Woods being in sex rehab in Hattiesburg was also posted here weeks before that broke too, but it wasn't systematically ignored.

During Jackie's investigation, there was pretty much a weekly update. Anybody remember Tiregate? That was huge news but Tunsil getting paid from coaches and moving his family 13 hours to Oxford for 3 years isn't?

BULLSHIT!!!!! When everything with Redmond was going down it was every damn day (same with Jackie) and most was based on rumors and "secret sources".

Especially when the secret source is being paid by UM to talk.

I'm with you about being no story today or as of yet. What will piss me off, and I know it will happen, is when an out of state or national news source breaks the story long before the in state newspaper.

They won't report it when the higher ups at the CL in Jackson are telling their guys to look the other way. It's not coming from Sam Hall or Killinburgers. It's above them. Hall and Killinburgers are being good little stooges.

Pretty obvious that after Riley Blevins was made an example of that CL sports writers are not going to touch this story unless directed to (if they want to keep their jobs). And they certainly will not be directed to.

If Clay Hall, Michael Rubenstein, Rick Cleveland and others were still with us or still in the reporting game, one of them would be doing some digging and some actual journalism. Some of those guys were liked and some weren't, but back in the day, we had journalists who got to the bottom of stuff. These guys today are scared to death to report anything.

Have they even bothered to interview any of the disassociated boosters?

The damn Clarion Liar couldn't give an update on Alcorn State's volleyball team without mentioning our investigation. You had the sports editor with a personal crusade to bring Jackie down by any means necessary.

I wonder if any of the radio shows will bring anything up about it? Probably not. If they do, they will just call it nonsense until something publicly breaks on it.

There is literally zero news to report that makes OM look better. They can't report message board "rumors" unless they fit the narrative.
