Ole Miss is bracing to be without Laremy Tunsil for several more games, including Saturday's contest at Alabama (9:15 p.m. ET, ESPN), while the NCAA continues its investigation into claims of rules violations involving him.

The NCAA has conducted an investigation into Ole Miss' athletic department that has dragged on for more than three years now. The part of the investigation involving Tunsil, the Rebels' All-America offensive tackle, heated up this summer when he and his mother's estranged husband, Lindsey Miller, had a physical altercation that prompted both to file domestic violence charges. Afterward, Miller claimed Tunsil had been riding around in cars with agents and had accepted impermissible benefits from agents and officials at Ole Miss.

Tunsil, a 6-foot-5, 305-pound junior, did not play in the Rebels' first two games. Sources told ESPN.com that the sticking point is a loaner vehicle Tunsil received from Cannon Motors in Oxford, Mississippi, while his car was in the repair shop. Tunsil allegedly kept that loaner vehicle for an extended period of time before returning it to the dealership, and the NCAA has deemed it an extra benefit.

Ole Miss athletic director Ross Bjork declined to comment Wednesday other than to emphasize the joint statement he and Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze released last week.

"The matters involving Laremy Tunsil aren't related to anybody on our football staff, Coach Freeze or any of the assistants," Bjork told ESPN.com. "We want to protect the young man and are doing everything we can to do that, but we also have to and need to and should protect our staff and our program."
