If you look at their former coach that got ULL in trouble, resulting in losing 9 or so, schollies, coupled with Tunsil stuff and other little things, I would not be surprised to see the NCAA announce:

- Loss of 10 schollies over 3 years (OM will appeal at get it knocked down to 6 or so);
- One year post-season ban (OM will appeal and get that reversed);
- Contact limits as to number of in-home visits, etc. (OM will not appeal) and
- three years probation wherein any other major infraction results in much more severe penalties.

Those are the NCAA consequences. The real-world consequence will be the cash-flow to players will be drastically reduced (OM fans can cut the crap if they say this isn't happening - I personally know a wealthy OM fan that gives money to players already on campus).

I think that they will take a standard deviation step back in recruiting (if they average a Top 10 class with Freeze, it will be a Top 20 class average moving forward) with the occasional outlier in the Top 10 and outside the Top 20.

They will continue to be a 9-3 or 8-4 type of program.

I agree with Doc on this one. It is not only the actual sanctions but perception and threat of them that causes harm. Like it or not Ole Miss is seen nationally as a dirty program and that will hurt some recruiting efforts. 5* Signing day flips is probably a thing of the past for a while.

Lets be clear- these are the consequences you expect for the old violations tied to Houston Nutt? I should have been clear in OP, I just mean the consequences for Tunsil-related issues.

Don't forget they also have ACT fraud that's mentioned in the NOA. That is probably the most serious offense of all that they are dealing with. Seriously I'm expecting at a minimum 30 schollies lost over 3 years with a 4 year probation

I know for a fact other sec schools do the exact same thing, (looking at you Uga) but even if I had some proof other than players telling me I wouldn't do anything with it. These dudes are destroying their bodies for a scholarship and refrained from making money, which is stupid so who am I to get all pissed about some hundred dollar handouts.
