I'd be embarrassed to be an OM fan at this point. Take your lumps and move on you bunch of pasties.
I bet it comes out before signing day so they can try to rally the troops for one last big jump up the rankings.

That make sense Clark, so they have it in hand when DD comes for his OV.

I'm having a hard time contemplating what positives they could put out there that would make a difference, and at the same time not piss off the NCAA even more that they already have.

What makes you think they give a damn about pissing off the NCAA?

A lot gets broken on here but outsiders will think that this board is just full of crazy people if everyone jumps on the "Ole Miss could get kicked out of the conference" train. That's just not going to happen. They have plenty of shit coming their way without expanding it to levels that will make people just roll their eyes.
Message boards have little credibility. They are created, maintained, and fueled by mostly anonymous fans. Why would I care if a visiting fan "eye rolls" at some crazy statement. There was a lot of eye rolling when we didn't buy 9 over 3 also. In fact, I would say the more we talk about it and the more it gets out there the more of a talking point it could be for the media.

It's the only shot they have landing him at this point I think. I would hate it for the kid.

The only people that eye rolled at people who didn't buy 9 over 3 were Ole Miss fans and media. If you want people to associate your username with that sort of thing, go ahead. It's just hard to take you serious in conversation when you think they may actually be removed from the conference. I'll gladly buy you a night worth of alcohol the next time I'm in Starkville if that happens. I'll probably buy you a night's worth of alcohol when the realistic sanctions happen anyway. They are going to suck for a long time.

Ben Garrett, who has been deep throating Freeze and Bjork for years, was steadfast on the Ole Miss Spirit podcast that Ole Miss would "fight back" should the COI render a verdict that was not deemed satisfactory to its liking.
For Ole Miss fans, that is music to their respective ears. The recent legislation from Rep. Lamar could be the match that lights the fire to the conclusion to what many have called a "witch hunt" against a program that is one year removed from a Sugar Bowl victory.
He's bad.

So, your position is, even if UNM sues the NCAA, tries to bring down multiple SEC members with them, gets busted for academic fraud in addition to multiple other impermissible benefits, and is deemed to have continued cheating while under investigation, etc, that the SEC would not even consider removing them under existing bylaws that allow for it? Even with the embarrassment of this former UNM player trying to enact a state law to punish the NCAA?
If so, why is there even a provision for removal? I mean, if it's simply not ever possible, period....why even have it?

This is where I'm at. Is it probable? No. Is it possible? Yes.
If they took their lumps and kept moving then they would be good BUT they haven't accepted anything this entire time and are now talking about suing the NCAA. Additionally, more than a few "connected" Ole Miss people have stated that they are going to take down the rest of the conference. Folks keep asking "why would 2/3 of the member institutions vote them out?" This....this is the reason you vote another institution out. Not only do you drag the conference down with academic fraud but you also have pay-to-play and the host of other level 1's being leveled towards Ole Miss. Then, instead of saying "sorry. we will fix it"....nope...they are going to take down Bama, Georgia, Auburn, Tenn, LSU, Arkansas and MSU also (those are the ones I've heard named).
They aren't making friends in all of this.
I know it's probably not going to happen but you also can't say it's not possible through all of this....especially if half of what has been said is true AND they plan on suing the NCAA and going after other institutes. At that point you have a rogue institute that's just looking to burn everything down around them.

My position is that the NCAA doesn't give a shit who OM turns in and OM attorneys getting paid millions of dollars aren't stupid enough to put themselves under oath by suing the NCAA.

Here's another glowing piece that Mr. Logan wrote on Sunday:

Which is more unlikely?:
A) That a UNM-educated attorney files suit against the NCAA
B) That a Mississippi state legislator and former UNM player submit actual legislation to penalize the NCAA for investigations he deems to be too long

Also, Penn State had a coach rape little boys for decades and the coaching staff and administration covered it up and they did not get kicked out of their conference. USC didn't get kicked out. Miami. Baylor's coach covered up sexual assault and years back had a murderer on their team. It's just not going to happen. They will get 30 or so scholarships, multi year bowl ban, and freeze will get canned more than likely and that will be enough to set them back a decade.

He paints this as if it was an action the university, its students and alums took to improve race relations. In reality, they fought it tooth-and-nail, requiring POTUS to send in the National Guard. And there were people shot and killed over it.
Unreal.

This guy gets it! Have some rep points for making entirely too much sense! You become a liability when you are looking to take down half the programs in your own conference. If the bears sue the NCAA, don't be surprised if there's some rumblings (amongst SEC admins) about the bears removal from the conference. How can they not?? It would be ridiculous to not consider removing the cancer in Oxford. This site was mocked for months, but EliteDawgs has had the best sources since the beginning. People have begun the realize this and are now coming here and will continue to come here for the investigative info.

The people with the sources on this site that have been breaking things aren't telling you that Ole Miss is getting kicked out of the conference.

But did those colleges attempt to burn the entire conference because they got busted?

No, they are not. Notice that I prefaced this with, "If the bears sue the NCAA". If they don't, there is zero chance of being removed. If they do sue, I certainly believe expulsion becomes an option.
