    Why no mention of all this OM/NCAA stuff by espn or affiliates?

    Seems strange that the world wide leader in sports has yet to mention anything about this?

    I was thinking about that this morning when I was listening to Cowherd since he seems to be so high on them

    Stories on this have trickled here and there but it doesn't seem to be widespread news at this point.

    Really no news yet, just asking questions. Not as big as the QB for aTm, yet.

    There was no news of the whole Redmond situation either when that douche Matt Stevens started blowing it out of proportion. It's such a double standard by the media around here....if there is even a puff of smoke around Starkville we have Stevens, Locke, Wardlaw, Robertson, Forde, Talty, and the rest of the clown crew reporting on it as if a bomb just went off and they were there to witness it first hand. But you let Oxford fill up with smoke, articles be written by CBS, and basically a damn fire sparking in the corner....and those same douches are silent until there is no possible way they can hide it any longer.

    It is BULL SHIT

    Our investigation was a media shitstorm compared to UM's, or at least what we've seen of this investigation so far. They don't have a Byron DeVinner running his mouth, spewing bullshit to every radio station that would have him on the air. Plus, the local media is basically saying nothing about this. UM doesn't have some two-bit local sports writer trying to make a name for himself by lying about about somebody getting a free car, and they sure as hell don't have their people who run fan sites throwing players under the bus. Veazey is the only local reporter I've seen even saying more than "Nothing to see here."

    Hopefully that all changes when this next story comes out, assuming it does come out.

    Add Memphis sports media to that list. So much as a player getting a speeding ticket in Starkville......our program is down the shitter and the death penalty looms. Old Mrs. on the other hand......nothing.

    Reason 1,000,001 why the city of Memphis sucks.

    because we were too dumb to get a cease and desist on chubby before he went on his radio tour. As soon as he tweeted about it the first time the letter should've been filed seconds later.

    Unfortunately, I don't. The NCAA screwing it up is probably the best chance for UM in this whole thing.

    Until there's a formal investigation, its not a big story hence why no one is reporting on it. Interviewing players, coaches, boosters or whoever is something the ncaa does every single day all around the country.

    We all know there's plenty of damaging information just got to hope the ncaa has the balls to do something with the info

    Yes they talk to people all the time, but "Interviewing Chris Jones about Ole Miss recruiting" does NOT happen every day. There has already been released more than the "usual shit", and that is why I get pissed about it. If that article had come out about MSU recruiting instead of OM, there is zero doubt it would be a topic amongst all of the local media and beat writers. But the shoe is on the other foot now, and guess what...not a ****ing peep from anybody. It's garbage. The media is garbage.

    Stay patient. They'll report it...

    ...Hugh Freeze asked for people to send him specific instances of Ole Miss cheating, & he got a huge response.

    Then a reporter, under the FOIA, asks to see those tweets/e-mails/text messages, etc.

    Then Ole Miss, via some clever legal maneuvering, released a tiny portion of the info sent to them that displayed Ole Miss cheating.

    What I am saying is Hugh Freeze & the University of Mississippi are currently embroiled in a cover-up.

    And as the old saying goes, it's not the act that get you in the end; it's the cover-up.

    Cover-ups are the juciy tidbits of any American reporting, whether political, business, domestic or sports.

    So just be patient. The cover-up will prove too inticing for ESPN or anybody else to resist.

    ....have nothing to do with Hugh Freeze's & the University Of Mississippi's very public cover-up.

    Perhaps that is a concept too deep for NAFOOM to grasp.
