Elements of their fan base are brain-dead.

I just doubt there's anything to this.. Especially if OM decided to self-report it..

Well.... lets wait and see... Where oh where is the twitter page... seems to be missing today..

Is the "self reporting" part confirmed?

Bjork said they self-reported it and that it would be considered a level 3 violation.. But ya know, he hasn't exactly been honest in the past.

From the clarion-ledger..

https://www.clarionledger.com/story/...ies/806787002/

"Bjork confirmed to the Clarion Ledger that Ole Miss recently submitted a self-report to the SEC that exposed a group of fans improperly contacting recruits through Twitter. The NCAA has rules against fans and boosters promoting their school to recruits in any way through social media. In addition, this particular violation involved “direct” and “deliberate” contact, Bjork said. According to Bjork, the incident occurred this winter. He described Ole Miss' response as “standard reporting” of a level 3 violation (the lowest on the scale)."

"Group of fans" sounds like something that was more of a network than individual rogues.

"groups of fans" setting up private chat rooms. ok.

Rules out a singular "rogue booster". A believe a group of rogue boosters might be called a conspiracy. Seems that that should warrant a little higher than a level 3.

1. Is OM not on probation?
2. What is the definition of probation?

And...aren't continuing offenses during probation considered at greater levels of severity? Hmmmmm? I believe they are.

If you are already on probation this ain't no level 3.

C'mon NCAA do your damn job!

I bet every SEC message board is going to light up over this. They are some stupid. But on the other hand they only got thump on the wrist last time so why not?

This offense was reported to have happened with the December 2017 early signees group. In that group was a bunch of 3 star but also two 4 stars, QB-Matt Corral and WR-Elijah Moore. Hmmm....

There is no such designation as major or minor anymore. You have Levels. Level 1 being the most egregious of violations down to Level 4 which is the least. A Level 3 is handled by the enforcement staff and does not go before the COI. To trigger the repeat offender clause it would have to be classified as a Level 2 or higher. Now just because they self reported it as a Level 3 doesn’t mean the enforcement staff doesn’t reclassify it later during the investigation but if you want to look at Level 3 & 4’s as minor and Level 1 & 2’s as major that would be apportiate for discussions just not official classifications

somebody correct me if I'm wrong but is this an instance where OM is self reporting it as a level 3 but the NCAA could very well come back and say no, dumbasses, try level 1 under current probation? don't get me wrong, I fully expect the NCAA to shit the bed and do nothing, just a thought.

So it's like admitting to the cops you were speeding but you've got kilo of coke in your trunk you don't want to talk about.

That would explain why Ole Miss is classifying this as a level 3 violation.

well you answered my question as I was typing.

I wish the NCAA had subpoena power to confiscate their devices. I'd bet there would be a ton of hammering and bleaching going on in Oxford.

The article says they reported to the SEC.....not the NCAA?

Yes. They are self reporting (which is required for a Level 3) but doesn’t mean that the enforcement staff doesn’t change it to a higher violation during the investigation. Doesn’t mean they will either.

Bjork said it happened "last winter" as I recall from reading. Is it possible that it happened before the punishment was handed down (I don't remember when they got the "bad" news)? And if it did, would it still be a repeat offense, since they didn't know for sure that they would receive any punishment?

It happened after the slap on the wrist.

Lets also add that they have been called on the carpet for Rogue Boosters being "out of control" and the administration not being able to control them..... hum.... Rogue Boosters are still OUT OF CONTROL.....


It's been a year since Freezeus resigned.... hum...

I can't believe y'all are going to do this to yourselves again... 15 level one violations, players admitting to taking cash on tv, coaches with hookers, text messages from boosters offering incentives... and they got a freaking slap on the wrist! And for the 3-4 of you out there that thinks they got hammered, save it, it just makes you look like a moron. I'll bet you all my v-cash + some real cash that NOTHING happens from this.

ETA... and Mimi, and all her conspiracies, has returned.

It's being told that the main culprits were 14/15-year olds, but I think the one adult is a notorious shart booster with the initials TR. Some of you are probably very familiar.

I've never really understood how a school can be expected to control what fans do without their knowledge. Literally everybody has two or three computers at home now with access to social media and fan forums, they have a smart phone ... it can't be policed. Sure, if they're "caught", they can be dissociated but that doesn't really do much good.

If anyone thinks tsun would "self report" dick squat unless there was a high probability it would be uncovered by others later, then you are indeed touched, need to seek help and don't know the definition of "Covering one's Ass" .

14 year olds? considering it's tsun, maybe there's a pedo aspect to all this as well?
