Just a run down of today's event, but George Schroeder kind of laid it out in a way that makes Freeze look ridiculous.

Freeze is clearly playing the we didn't know card & hoping the NCAA will have sympathy & mercy because he's a big christian, the mistakes were not intentional, & since he says he would never attempt to cut a corner. Problem, however, is that even if all that were absolutely true, the NCAA would be opening the most massive loophole in the history of amateur sports by accepting that excuse. As cops say, "Someone has to go to jail." because the moment you have mercy or sympathy for Ole Miss, is the moment 20 other schools break rules & say, "They were mistakes & we didn't intentionally do this". The NCAA has no choice but to set precedent & make it known that breaking the rules is breaking the rules whether it was intentional, not intentional, or even if you are biggest holy roller in existence.

Even if you are the biggest Ole Miss sucker in the world & believe everything Freeze has said, Ole Miss still has to fry in order to be a deterrent to other schools. In a business in which EVERY coach has to take a rule test before being allowed to recruit, mistakes aren't acceptable & there are penalties.
