Bjork has no reason not to have known about Freeze's indiscretions because he should've been reviewing Hugh's phone. Bjork also went to Memphis and Jackson with Freeze after he "discovered" Freeze's violation of his moral turpitude agreement. Also, Ole Miss' methods of "exemplary cooperation" re: the NCAA is some profoundly weak shite. We should've handled it like Miami or UNC and told them to frick themselves unless they have us dead to rights. They clearly wanted to crucify us, and they likely violated their own bylaws to do such. The entire time has been a botched farce, and Bjork is largely responsible.
Ross isn't calling all the shots in regards to the investigation. There are board members, the chancellor, academics, compliance, and legal counsel all deciding on how to proceed.
As of now, cooperation seems like a bad decision bc Ole Miss has been murdered in the court of public opinion. It's hard to foresee it would be this bad. Part of that has to do with Freeze's defiance and personality. Freeze had ridiculous amounts of booster support too, so it's not like Bjork had easy decisions to make.
Also, cancelling the Rebel Road Trip would've sent us major alarms before the process of investigating was complete.
Bjork is the best AD we've had (maybe partially by default), so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for now.

Freeze should've been pulled off the trip, especially with them going to Ole Miss largest fanbases. That really bothers me.
Bjork has by and large been good, but if the NCAA screws us, he's certainly not the best we've had. I'm of the opinion a lot has been mishandled, and it's all happened on Ross' watch

Obviously.
Only one of our major sports teams is any better than it was under Boone, and it's only because we've been cheating so flagrantly that the NCAA, who is notoriously bad at this, actually has enough ammunition to send us back to the Steve Sloan/Cutcliffe-post-Eli era, if not give us the Death Penalty outright. 8+ LEVEL 1 VIOLATIONS.
C'mon, man. There's no way Bjork should survive this.
BUT we are Ole Miss, and whatever the frick we end up doing will be whatever the frick we end up doing.
