Mars quotes on Boutrous from 2007 article.
"I talk to Ted Boutrous more than I talk to any outside lawyer in the world, and there's not even a close second," says Tom Mars, Wal-Mart's top in-house counsel. "We have access to all the best lawyers in the world.... Yet somebody has to be the best of the best, and that's the way I would describe Ted."

Looks like he is gearing up to take ole miss to court.
Who ever thought it would come to this? The most powerful lawyers in MS vs. the most powerful lawyers in the country (and Rosebowl).
Stacking up to be Pickett's Charge all over again.
I actually laughed out loud at this!Quote:

Northern Miss just thinks they have badass lawyers. Mars is showing them how a badass lawyer really does the job. It's hilarious to watch. And the best part is that it appears Nutt has told him to not only go for BearShark blood, but go for the jugular.
**** those shitbirds!
No shit. Mars got Freeze fired like it was nothing. Ole Miss should just give that guy whatever he wants to make him go away.
apologies are so inexpensiveQuote:

Their legal counsel and university leadership sure has messed this up.
Nutt has to see this through now. He's running up too big a legal bill not to. Also tells me how confident they are in their case.
That would involve doing the one thing Bears are incapable of doing. Swallowing their pride. They'd rather Mars burn Oxford to total ash so people may then feel sorry for them than wave the white flag. Remember this is the same school with a 100% casualty rate in the Civil War. They take honor in completely destroying themselves to nothing left.Quote:

Yeah, this guy knows what the **** he is doing. The lesson from this, if you ever piss off Houston Nutt, you better kill him. Otherwise he will come at you like a crazed spider monkey, and you WILL rue the day.
You kind of have to wonder is there another really big fish going after Ole Miss through Nutt. Seems like a lot of money is being spent on legal fees from somebody who has been unemployed for five years.

I'm sure this is a good thing for OM.*

Well what it shows is just how weak the Ole Miss lawyers are outside the state of Mississippi. The shitbirds are clinging to the hope that Merkel is going to get Leo and Kobe to say they lied... but they fail to realize that Ole Terry Warren will be deposed as well by lawyers which have already demonstrated they are superior in every way to Merkel. and He will be asked all kinds of questions that if answered a certain way..could lead to jail time.
OM's legal team says they're ready!Quote:

Hell they've already spent how many thousands & thousands of dollars on legal counsel due to the NCAA investigation? How much more money could they possibly have to keep fighting the Nutt thing?
Is #Nuttgate going to leave them #NuttLess? That IS the question.
Didn't Rosie say some folks were going to be feeling very uncomfortable in the coming weeks? Ted Boutrous' history would give me dribbling diarrhea if I were associated in any way to this Ole Miss dumpster fire.
Reckon old Huston Dale would apply for the OM job?Quote:

Boutrous is not the guy you bring in when you're posturing for settlement. He's the guy you call when you're ready to fight a full-scale war, and Gibson Dunn may be the last firm you want on the other side when you're trying to hide something. They haven't been AmLaw's litigation department of the year 3 or 4 times this decade for going easy on their opponents. They are brilliant and relentless. This will not end well for OM if they stay their recent course.
I knew all I needed to know when I saw that twice all major news sources (NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, and Fox) got together and collectively hired this guy. It's like with Wal-Mart and Mars. These people can pick who they want. Money is not an issue.Quote:
