As far as the rumor about Ole Miss self-reporting a social media incident: The university discovered on a social media platform (Twitter) what it deemed to be a minor violation of "boosters," which I'm using loosely here, contacting recruits. An Ole Miss booster can't tweet a recruit. The secondary violation included a couple of December signees. There was no discussion of impermissible benefits, I'm told. Ole Miss self-reported. I was told nothing is expected to come from it.
And, under normal circumstances, the above explanation sounds plausible. However, based on the past misinformation put out by the Ole Miss AD (and to a lesser degree, the OM fan pages), if I were an OM supporter, I would have great difficulty believing anything they said. I would assume that privately, most OM fans will take a "wait and see" attitude regarding this.
