An actual miss state game would do wonders as far as slowing down all this talk. There's really nothing to talk about much right now... Unless you guys wanna talk braves' baseball bc I'm all in haha

Why did he cuss Robert Elliot's mom if he had such high character and integrity? Ask the Rebs that question.
If ole miss doesn't get hammered by the NCAA, from now on we better:
1. Provide hotel rooms for all players and recruits families
2. Provide travel and/or reimburse any travel expenses for the entire family of recruits/players
3. Have dinners and events hosted at coaches' homes with all the big time boosters in attendance
4. Provide cost of living allowances not just players, but for momma, daddy, aunts, uncles or any other influential family members
Any more?
Quick google search regarding Freeze and Mcknight, brought up this interesting read.... It shows a different side of Mr. Freeze and gives light to whether he is the best recruiter of all time.... If 800 calls to a high school kid over 3 days and blowing up the recruit's 11 year old brother's phone means you're the best, then yes Freezus must be the best....

Seriously. I doubt any of the things the NCAA has actually identified, other than introducing the players to boosters and the academic improprieties, had any significant impact on their recruiting.
If UM doesn't get hammered, we are going to have to decide whether we are committed enough to compete in big boy football. I hope we are, but I'm not out handing out cash, so I can't really complain about anybody else's commitment.
See USC. 2 year bowl ban. 30 scholarships over 3 years. I would want to see every game that Tunsil played in be forfeited. And all current players be given the option to transfer without sitting out a year.
That's enough to keep up the rhetoric. Much less than that and it's a waste of time to discuss or even think about on a message board.
I think this makes a ton of sense as well, but would add showcauses for Freeze, Kiffin, Nix, etc. Basically, I don't believe the NCAA should be out to destroy Ole Miss' football program or university, but I think the fair thing to do is to set them back to where they were before Freeze got there. No more, no less. If Freeze's program was built through illegal benefits, then the people involved should be terminated & the program reset to where it was before he got there.
This is the recipe.
Avoid handing out large amounts of money. Provide for players and their families on a monthly basis. The Network had a choice, give one lump sum, or portion it over 4 years. They both have pros and cons.
If you give one lump sum, there is only one transaction to be traced, but that transaction could be a program destroyer. They decided against this. Instead, the decided to give a bunch of small amounts over a long period of time. It creates a lot more transactions, but each is small enough to maybe be written off as a part of the "Opportunity Fund". The Opportunity Fund "narrative" was their fire escape plan, however, just because you follow the fire escape plan, doesn't mean you won't get burned.
All of these grand ideas start with axing Bracky Brett.
