Freeze extended but not Kennedy

Thoughts?

[BeardoMSU]

Thoughts?

Weren't OM fans making fun of us for extending Mullen after a losing season?

[msstate7]

Freeze got an extension with all this NCAA trouble? If I'm the NCAA, I'm even more pissed... OM obviously has no problem with freeze cheating

[Homedawg]

Cheating? They are walking Scott free*** they are officially ALL IN!

Pretty much a straight "**** you" from OM to NCAA....Bold strategy, Cotton.

Kennedy probably cursed a booster who thinks his shit doesn't stink or didn't give a scholly to his white kid. **** the shitbirds !!

[msstate7]

That's true. Once we read the amazing response, we'll realize this is all one big misunderstanding

[mstatefan91]

Gives new meaning to ALL IN****

[Dawg61]

Freezus got more dirt on Old Misses than the NCAA does

[Brahmabull]

I almost want to see Kennedy make the tournament next year and then take another job!!

[Randolph Dupree]

You only do this for one of two reasons:

1. Delusion

2. The dirt the NCAA has is the tip of the iceburg and Freezus threatened to bring the whole thing down.

[ShotgunDawg]

It's really irrelevant that they extended him. It's a show of strength but they'll either be firing him for cause in which case they owe nothing or they will keep him, like we know they want to anyway.

Sure the NCAA may this as defiance but it's irrelevant.

[confucius say]

I think freeze was extended back in December/January. Not sure if it was a recruiting thing or what, but OM didn't publicize it so take that fwiw. And we all know they publicize eeeeverything.

It's not irrelevant if the NCAA sees it as a slap in the face and a sign they are going to continue doing the same things.

[MadDawg]

QUESTION:

Has a head coach in any sport ever got a show-cause while still employed? I can't think of one.

They aren't going to fire Freezus cause he's got all the dirt. They are screwed in every direction.

Where the 17 do you come up with all your hilarious shit?

[HereComesTheSpiral]

I'm guessing Freeze is viewed as a big circus show distraction by every school in Div 1 and no one will even go near him, otherwise I would have to believe he would be singing from the top of the roof to beat a show cause and find the next job ASAP.

[Political Hack]

Dear NCAA:

Screw you.

Sincerely,
Ole Miss

This is starting to sound like the most likely situation. Is blackmail a part of Christianity?

Nice theory but the second the verdict from the COI is handed down. Freeze is gone for cause with no more money due.

Extending him is just very very weird. Truly delusional and ALL IN.

Blackmail, lying, cheating and stealing are the same thing... EVIL..... and is NOT apart of MY BIBLE....
Neither is supplying, escorts, ladies of the evening, etc....

I can give references if needed.

He's going to cleanse Ole Miss of their sins. It's actually one of the more Christian things he will do.

[DanDority]

I've said all along that nothing serious to them.

[Political Hack]

I've said all along that nothing serious to them.

They've already given themselves a one year bowl ban, which the NCAA obviously didn't accept. That's pretty serious.

Yep. Have faith dority. Don't be blind. Remember the shawshenk redemption.

They really are all in. Unreal.

Agree Scooba.

With his extension having to be approved by the IHL, I don't see how ANY governing board can approve such an asinine request knowing that they (Freeze, Bdork) have run afoul of the NCAA (even if all of the penalties and allegations are not yet known) and if the said-governing board was truly looking out for the best interests of the university, the business decision alone is no way in hades does he get extended. And before anybody says it, I'm fully aware that the IHL is STACKED WITH UM ALUMs.

I just think stupid crap like this will be viewed as icing on the cake when the NCAA comes a'hammering.

Usually, you pay twice as much for that kinda action...

DP * 2?

[HSVDawg]

Extensions mean nothing when you can be fired for cause. This is nothing more than PR posturing from the "all is well" admin at OM to give a temporary boost to crootin and ticket sales.

[archdog]

Where the 17 do you come up with all your hilarious shit?

Films it himself.

[Westdawg]

I wonder if maybe, just maybe, the OM admin and a certain section of the alums ( lawyers wanting to run this ship) are directing this whole situation in the direction of a major showdown with the NCAA in a courtroom. I think they really believe that they can "lead" the universities in a revolt against the NCAA and everyone will just jump in board and ride with them.
Just my .02

[TrapGame]

Freeze could bring om to its knees with what he knows. That means the Manning myth would be burned to ashes like an antebellum home during Sherman's march. Freeze has them by the balls and will not leave until the very end when the NCAA levies its punishment.

[BeardoMSU]

Yep, lol. I write, produce, act in, and direct all my videos/.gifs.***

[Coackjek]

Mistakes were made. Kennedy was supposed to get the extension

Their wish to lead the fight against the NCAA, even if it means becoming a martyr, is delusional at best as most schools view their methods as unethical and unacceptable. This may very well be one of the greatest 30 for 30 stories ever told.

Really? Interesting. Are they about whisky or something else? That's whisky WITHOUT the "e" by the way!

OM thinks they are above the NCAA policies and procedures.... and the idiots MAY try this in court.
If Om and their attorney's attempt this then the REAL MESS will be brought to the forefront... and for many
people, their business and lively hood will ALL come falling down....

There could/should also be FEDERAL Charges involved in this mess and very well could be before the NCAA finishes with OM.. No these charges won't come from the NCAA but some of what was reported to them is ILLEGAL in Mississippi.

SO WHY SHOULD ANDY KENNEDY WANT TO CONTINUE AT OM? With the NCAA breathing down both sides of his neck????

MORE SIDELINE INFORMATION: IF you want a real kick.... 55 OM players have graduated with a degree called..... B.G.S. in General Studies... This degree was created in 2010.... and is a WASTE of time for these guys.. I am saddened that Scholarship money is being used to fund this degree.

This is a excerpt of the catalog...... HISTORY/MISSION/PURPOSE
The Bachelor of General Studies is a cross-disciplinary degree program offered to maximize opportunities for individuals to reach personal goals, meet job requirements, and advance their careers. The degree was created in 2010 to meet the needs of undergraduates who wish to tailor their own degree program to meet their specific educational and career needs; non-traditional students whose work and family responsibilities constrain their ability to complete the requirements of other undergraduate degree programs offered by the University; and students who have accumulated many college credits, but discontinued their studies without completing a degree. Courses taken in fulfillment of BGS degree requirements are selected from the offerings of the College of Liberal Arts and the professional schools serving undergraduates at the University of Mississippi.

I realize that IHL is loaded with OM graduates.... and that they approved this degree... The General Studies Degree WAS NOT meant for Football players or any other RECRUIT just entering college...

That is intetsting. Great story for a real journalist to dig into. Prob would write itself.

One thing to note here....the IHL is NOT full of OM grads, and in fact, there are two members that are true maroon as any alumni on this board, and 'hate them bastards'......i know them both personally....

Do me and the rest of the DAWG NATION a huge favor..... ASK the people that are your "friends" about this degree and ask for them to respond... Is this mess for REAL where the ath. department is concerned. I understand this degree for a person that NEVER completed a degree... BUT not football players....
