Rebel Rags

[Big4Dawg]

Rebel Rags has served lawsuit papers of defamation of character, slander, conspiracy and commercial disparagement to Lindsey Miller, Leo Lewis and his mother, and Kobe Jones and his mother. Hmmm.....

[confucius say]

Venue in Starkville or Brookhaven in state court. Good luck with that.

[Thick]

Nothing filed in Lafayette Co., at least showing in the data base.

[BeastMan]

Those things are public record. What's the docket number? When I look at the northern district docket I'm seeing 2 filings on Friday. A job discrimination suit and diversity fraud suit. It might be semantics meaning he's informed the parties he intends to sue and hasn't filed it in court yet. I think you have to give parties a heads up but I'll let a tort guy answer that.

[CadaverDawg]

We all knew their fall would get ugly. Don't fall for the bull shit they're going to attempt to spew as they try to take MSU down with them. The NCAA isn't going to punish the schools that helped them take down the modern day SMU. Think about it. They're just trying to spin the narrative as always, and create something positive for Ole Miss fans. Guys like Yancy won't have a job if he doesn't make stuff up like he admits he does. Just don't fall for it.

No diversity. Leo and Kobe destroy diversity. Would have to be in state court.

And no heads up required. Not a suit against a public entity.

Good, now lawyers have subpoena power. Not buying it though. Sounds like another yancy temper tantrum post

[BeastMan]

Let me just add, I totally believe this guy is going to sue. It's an interesting tactic being that the NCAA hasn't ruled yet. I'm sure from his pov it says to the NCAA that if you find me guilty, you're getting sued too. The flip-side which is crazy would be if the NCAA rules against him and OM has to disassociate him even though they're fighting with him now. Would he then sue OM to fight disassociation. Crazy

The diversity case is Farm B Banks.

Those dumbasses are not going to be content until they end up getting themselves kicked out of the sec or NCAA.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Oh Boy! This means Farrar and Hey Hugh can be put on the stand!

[msbulldog]

How in the hell (if this is true) are Leo and Kobe or their mothers being sued? I have seen nothing official that has identified them by name. The documents that I have seen only have numbers referencing the student athletes. And from what I understand about student privacy laws the names will never be released. If this is true, which I doubt, the owner of Rebel Rags is opening himself up for counter-suits.

Well he is dumb and arrogant enough to do so. His big mouth may also have him ending up like Logan Young one day.

And I thought several of the UNM faithful were all up in arms last fall when it came out how the university sold him out to either to help facilitate the NCAA or actually do a sting operation on RR so the university could show exemplary cooperation. Wasn't that sting last spring, 2016?

Long story short: The 2 cases in the northern district are not RR vs Kobe, Leo, et al

Got ya. And makes sense if you are talking northern district federal court, as there are no federal law claims and no diversity. So it has to be brought in state court.

If it is a TORT against the university you have 90 days from the day of happening to put the university on notice. Then another 90 days to file the suit. A civil case... This will be in the court in which these people live. If it is a a civil suit -- this will take years to get into court here.

[PassInterference]

Nobody has been served. There's not even a court case in record.

This rumor is bullshit.

But bring it. Put Freeze on the stand. Establish his modus operandi in these matters by questioning how he handled similar high profile recruits. Ask about that check for the Nkemdiche Mercedes. Ask how Tee Sheppard flipped after midnight on signing day. Ask how Tunsil's poverty level family moved to Oxford and afforded a residence there. Ask how DD Bowie got moved to Oxford.

Make my day.

Not only that, the individuals haven't released anything to the public as far as I've heard. Ole Miss released the response, not the student athletes or their families.

[DancingRabbit]

This is bullshit. Just Yancy feeding bullshit to his customers.

[Ari Gold]

Wonder If Freeze is ****ing someone that works there too.. after all he is a cocksman

[Reason2succeed]

This is the type of shenanigans that will make the other SEC teams want OM gone. Someone please get this out to the national media. I'm sure they will find this very amusing.

[Chip]

This would be really, really dumb. As some have mentioned here, putting Freeze, Farrar under oath, and then getting the legal right to subpoena other players and put them under oath? Just dumb.

[LC Dawg]

I'm not sure if some sort of defamation suit by this guy will allow unlimited questioning but putting highly recruited football players and their parents on the stand isn't good for any school that was involved in their recruitment. Ole Miss and everyone associated with them are all some stupid ****ers. If this goes very far I would look for the SEC to find a way to make it go away.

[Mimi's Babies]

IF the business would have filed.... the CL would have had a front page headlined article and the local news nuts would have been all over this.... I agree, YP is just trying to stir up poop... He has pooped on his readers for years attempting to convince them that he knows what is/was going on.... times up OM.... waiting for the June 27, 2017 meeting and then your COI....

[Tbonewannabe]

So how would Rebel Rags know if Leo or Kobe said anything? Doesn't the NOA only refer to students as a number? We can all guess who said what but it is purely a guess.

[Tripp McNeely]

Please lord be true!!!

[lamont]

One thing Rags better worry about:

Players from other schools that were recruited by the Rebels he gave free shit to. They would make great surprise witnesses and would very likely come to the rescue of a fellow player in need.

Seems this is just another diversion from reality. I realize to those sued it's not but I see no merit in this suit.

Geez, 2 of the named are redacted. Where are feds regs on this?

This also opens UM for suit. Rebel Rags will have to testify under oath why they picked these people. You have to have cause for suing someone if you want to prove your case and receive compensation. This will come back on UM and could cost the university accreditation if proven that someone violated FERPA. Dumb move that the university better shut down before even more questions come forward. Are they really willing to burn down the whole university for Freeze?

[BuckyIsAB****]

The NCAA is going to destroy them

[ShotgunDawg]

Yes they are.

This just adds the ammunition to hand down a DP.

It's clear that there is an absolute culture problem up there that needs to be eliminated.

This is correct

[Reason2succeed]

Someone from the OM administration needs to get on the horn and talk this group off the ledge quick or else they are going to take the whole "flagship" down. The SEC will not take very kindly to lawsuits against opponents' student athletes.

[LC Dawg]

I saw someone on Facebook link a C-L article on this. Didn't take long. I'm glad they finally had some news in regards to Ole Miss that they could jump on.

Rebel Rags is going to be what is left of the OM football program when all of this is over. The SEC and the NCAA will kick OM out if they let this continue. If the SEC or NCAA allows student athletes and witnesses to get sued for testifying to investigators it will end the NCAA enforcement process. The SEC will be in the constant peril of mutually assured destruction.

This business was mentioned multiple times in the NOAs by multiple sources but now they're mad they got name and may lose business. Maybe they should have thought about the consequences of their actions beforehand.

And if they are going to sue someone why not sue Barney or Chris Kiffin? This sounds like simple butt hurt. As SR said they are lashing out like a corner snake that's about to get it's head chopped off.

FERPA LAWS -- Students law and it is hard laws that are enforced. MY QUESTION???? How did this idiot get any names... Who told him the names? Or does he have a list of the ones that came into his business. NOW a GOOD lawyer will put all of the coaches on the witness stands with many on-lookers present. Is there a courtroom large enough?

Did the NCAA question Rags? Did the NCAA use the names of the SA's in their questioning? If so, that would let him know who. If not- somebody got some splaining to do....the NCAA will have that info

I do not remember seeing that the booster was questioned. Looking through the NOA I only see this Booster mentioned on page 10.
NCAA NOA 2017 page 10 (footnote 12)

12

Even Better is Booster 14 and his/her buddies can have their financials opened up. You think the IRS might want to see those.
