WMD's thoughts on the Rebel Rags lawsuit

[War Machine Dawg]

I'm sure most of this has already been discussed in other threads, but I wanted to chime in with my own 2 cents.

The Bears have given the NCAA subpoena power. I can't imagine the university is happy about this suit. There's no way they want anyone testifying under oath. I'd be shocked if the university doesn't have this shut down before any form of binding testimony takes place. If not, Hello Death Penalty.

I can't imagine the NCAA is happy with them IDing Leo in their response. And I'd imagine they're even less happy that UNM is suing him AND IDing another student athlete by suing him. And they should have foreseen one of their crazies would go after Lewis with the way they've vilified him and made it seem like he's the only person talking to the NCAA. This is a major FERPA violation.

And it completely ignores the fact that Northern Miss HELPED THE NCAA PARTICIPATE IN A STING against Rebel Rags. It isn't defamation if it's true. Truth is a complete defense. That's Torts 101.

Bottom line, this just makes things worse for Northern Miss. They've committed more violations and managed to piss off the NCAA even more. They'll either kill the suit or open themselves to much worse when testimony takes place.

We all knew they were desperate, but now we're seeing just how bat shit crazy they really are.

Just my thoughts. Feel free to chime in with your own.
