I know tsun says there are 5 involving Tunsil if you believe them. Could one of the 5 deal with what his dad told the NCAA as to how & who paid for their home in Oxford. That may be why they don't release the NOA. I feel one, at least, deals with the sports agent & one the loaner car(s). I haven't heard anything on this & thought maybe I missed it?
Just to piggy back off that slightly, has anybody thought maybe the law firm is haggling with the NCAA to get them to amend the LOI so it doesn't look quite as bad thus the reason for not releasing at this time? The confeds wanting the publics first look to be better than what they are currently holding? Or is just that the longer the stall, the less the media frenzy will be due to time killing the overall interest?
Both... It's bad. Really bad... And they want to prolong the inevitable as long as possible with hopes they can fight some of it and keep it out of the public eye.Quote:

2.

Possibly being the keyword. So they arent releasing that mf'er until they absolutely have to.
Which may be smart in one respect. But ultimately they will have to answer as to why their statements didn't matcxch what came out. If omQuote:

Msu's job? Get a credentialed reporter on our payroll and have them ask the questions and write the expose. I realize that's just as contrived as their continual lies to cover up, but its the way the media game is played now.
Forget paying for players. Pay to make sure the OTHER side f the story is told.
I get them trying but what possible motivation would the committee have in plea bargaining down or removing charges? I can't see where it'd benefit them at all which is why a plea bargain usually happens?Quote:

Yea that was a court of law and this is an investigation outside that, but we are talking about one coach making 4 mil a year. They can't get around their decision affecting that nor can they circumvent someone's rights to earn it unless those reasons are directly related to the earner.
I get it, it never mattered before when we got thrashed. But this is a different day.
My guess is that the NCAA would thrash them, but it will be negotiated down and not include Freeze

How much embarrassment and damage will the public see? I'm not sure, but I hope to hell OM can't work their magic in the meantime.

Sometime last month while searching the interwebs for information I stumbled across the CL article about our response to the NCAA. It seems we pretty much refuted everything. The most interesting one was where the NCAA said we gave a recruit so much money per week through the manager of Sears in Hattiesburg who was identified as a white male with dark hair in his 30's. We totally denied it and informed the NCAA that while the manager of Sears was indeed a white male, he was in his 60's and had white hair. LOLQuote:

Emails went as far as to state they "knew" he was dirty but couldn't prove it but they were going to "get" him anyway. Our buddy Johanningmeier was involved in that one too. I wonder how many motel rooms he was spotted leaving with a woman he never met, out there?
There are no issues with Tunsil. He is a great kid with a great heart and an outstanding work ethic. He's done a great job at Ole Miss and I'm really excited about the man he has become. He loves the Lord and did nothing except defend his mother. I'm really proud of him.
See how stupid the above paragraph sounds.
Is that a direct quote? Please tell me it's not, lol...Quote:

So you are saying maybe one of my assumptions may have teeth?Quote:
