The scapegoat responds
Former Ole Miss Assistant Athletic Director Barney Farrar vigorously defended himself against allegations that he was the mastermind responsible for recruiting violations in the football program. JJ obtained a copy of his response through a public records request and posted it below.
The staff has alleged that Farrar, a former football staffer for the University of Mississippi(?Ole Miss?), arranged impermissible recruiting inducements to be provided to then prospective football student-athletes, xxxx and xxxx, by representatives of the institution?s athletic interests (?RIAI?). The staff?s investigation and resulting allegations against Farrar rely almost exclusively on the statements xxxx of and xxxx, both of whom now play football for xxxx and xxxx each have the motivation to be untruthful, and have shown to be unreliable witnesses whose respective statements cannot sustain the allegations leveled against Farrar.
Before the panel can pass judgment on Farrar, it must first know who he is. Farrar has coached and been a staff member of NCAA-affiliated universities and their respective football programs for more than three decades. During those many years of service, he has never had a single accusation of improper conduct leveled against him by anyone. In fact, the NCAA?s original NOA against Ole Miss that preceded the present NOA made no allegations against Farrar. Farrar only became a target of the staff?s investigation after xxxx and xxxx were inserted into this matter, granted immunity, and force-fed a narrative rife with inconsistencies and outright untruths, designed to fit an agenda.
Despite the inconsistencies in xxxx and xxxx testimony and despite the lack of corroborating evidence the staff through its NOA embraces and accepts xxxx and xxxx testimony as true. However, when all of the ?evidence? is considered as a whole, the staff?s investigation actually shows that the purported violations allegedly committed by RIAIs did not result from anything that Farrar either did or did not do. Rather, if the RIAIs did commit violations of the NCAA?s rules, they did so without any involvement from Farrar and without Farrar?s knowledge.
Other than xxxx claim that he received $2,000 worth of Ole Miss gear from xxxx, which has been summarily debunked by xxxx legal counsel, xxxx, the enforcement staff?s entire case against Farrar is built on the inconsistent, uncorroborated, and outright untruthful testimony of xxxx. The staff ignored the obvious failings of xxxx suspect testimony and proceeded with charges against Farrar, for reasons known only to them. The staff cherry-picked the narrative which best fit its story. The staff molded xxxx testimony to fit a storyline that involved Farrar.
The response to each allegation is included in the documents posted below.
