ULL did get punished for it. In the link you provided...

"When the former assistant football coach
declined to participate in a third interview and refused to furnish his
cellular phone records, he failed to fulfill his obligations to cooperate fully
in the investigation. Accordingly, he violated NCAA Bylaw 19.2.3. "

So up until the very end both the NCAA and ULL acknowledged that Saunders not cooperating even after he was fired violated a specific NCAA rule (19.2.3, a Level 1 violation).

Apparently ULL never tried to say they weren't liable for Saunders not cooperating after he was fired, so I guess it's possible that Ole Miss will successfully refute theirs simply by arguing that they shouldn't be held responsible.

Where in that quote did it said that ULL was being punished for Saunders not cooperating? Everyone agreed that Saunders lied and that he didn't cooperate but the NCAA never said that ULL was responsible for that or was being held accountable. Show me where the NCAA says that ULL is responsible for making a fired coach cooperate?

The coaches had zero ties to Ole Miss when they committed the infractions so how are they responsible?

You have given 2 quotes stating Saunders committed infractions for lying and not cooperating but zero showing that's on ULL.
