Actually, Rosebowl said there were going to be 2 before the first one ever came out. I heard this the week before Christmas. He just never speculated on a date that the second one would come out.

Despite the chance that I might be agreeing with a troll here, I have to say this worries me as well. To anyone that doesn't have any type of inside knowledge of what is going on with these investigations, the whole notion of a 2nd letter, and the unprecedented-ness of it, just sounds like our side hedging their bets that the letter/investigation out there right now really is as the bears are characterizing it.
Do I smell bear shit?
Yes you do...
The inconsistency that I see is this: Bjork and company have claimed that the 5-10 football allegations in this first letter include Tunsil's issues. Why would those allegations be in a pre-2013 NOA and not in the upcoming post-2013 NOA?
I hope you guys are right about the damning second letter, especially if this new information is correct. Had some friends at work ask me last week how happy I was to see TSUN receive an NOA. I told them they haven't seen anything yet, just wait for round 2.
I don't think so. I believe the second NOA is more recent allegations from basically a separate investigation. The first has more to do with older allegations whereas the second one focuses on allegations the Tunsil incident and other recent incidents uncovered, and I wonder if this whole restructuring of NCAA penalties has something to do with it, too.

I haven't heard the 13 number. I could see how he could say "up to 13 or so" but I anticipate 5-10 being football related in the first letter and only one of them being related to Tunsil under the current staff. The 2nd letter I would anticipate being completely football and all under the current staff. It's my opinion that the first one will be bad and the second one will be much, much worse. How anyone could construe this as "good news for the Bears" is beyond me. That's some Yancy level spinning there.
NBC Sports as well

There could possibly be more than 2. I personally know of 3 recent signees that other programs have turned in information to the NCAA regarding last week's class. There is no way possible the NCAA is able to look into this year's accusations to include in 2nd letter. These letters may just become the norm for them if they keep flipping the NCAA the bird.
I don't know when the time table for "repeat offender" starts but I imagine it would be after probation is handed down. However, the potential for "pattern of willful violations" would seemingly be squarely in play with 2 NOA's. If they get popped for this year's class too, it would be the most epic failure in the history of college recruiting scandals.
Rezdogs shits gittin old
So every major news outlet across the country is reporting this except the CL while confed nation continues to deny it? Laughable but it also has some type of creepy side to it as well. Tsun is a strange bunch.
Rosebowl had a great podcast today where he talked about some of this. http://www.bulldogsportsradio.com/ep...-day-rankings/
Since all the rebels are here getting their news regarding their NCAA NOA from the most accurate and trusted OM news source, Elitedawgs, I would just like to say welcome and CLICK AN AD!!!!
If everyone gets a show cause, Ole Miss has no choice but to fire him. We they could still pay him, but he couldn't coach.
The real H-bomb would be to show cause everyone. Coaches, and AD's
The problem with the whole second letter theory is the fact that the Tunsil violations would not have been included on the original NOA if there was a 2nd NOA coming. That wouldn't make sense.
Why? There's rumored to be plenty more for a second NOA. The fact that the investigation is ongoing tells you there's more. If they were done and no more charges pending then Th investigation would not be ongoing. There's still this entire recruiting class to wade through plus the kimcheech stuff.
every article now says the investigation is still ongoing. If it was over- it would say so and is just waiting on the OM response to the allegations.
I completely agree that the investigation is ongoing. The question isn't whether they are still investigating TSUN, it's whether they already have material that will be part of a 2nd letter (and apparently purposely part of a 2nd letter instead of included in the first NOA). If they have proof of additional allegations, rather than simply still investigating to look for more, why are they waiting to release the info in a 2nd letter? The prevailing theories dealt with the NCAA rules change on how much the staff is to blame (aka, pre- and post-2013 or whenever) or the separation of academic vs other violations, but since Saunders and Tunsil are supposedly mentioned in this first NOA, neither seem like a satisfactory argument.
Y'all have to understand that Tunsil, and Hampton for that matter which should be also included at the same time, are eligibility issues of players already on the team. Those violations are different than actual staff violations which also have different guidlines now. So a separate investigation could overlap the years if the second investigation is centering around the staff and rouge boosters with violations concerning impermissible benefits for recruiting. That would be under the newer guidlines that puts much more emphasis on the head coach controlling the program. Show cause along with LOIC would surround that program with a black cloud.
