How much did the MSU boosters pony up to get him to Starkville?

Leo Lewis' eligibility is safe because he was granted immunity. It doesn't grant Mississippi State immunity though.

Now whether the NCAA will pursue anything against them remains to be seen.

Free drinks at Rick's and unlimited donuts at Shipley's.


ETA: I know people who have spent more than 15k in 5 years on those things more than likely.

NCAA is not going to shut down the only SEC football program that's left in the state. MSU is safe.

No.

He TOOK 15k from OM, signed somewhere else, sang to the NCAA, and got to keep both the money and his eligibility.

That's high level ballin' right there.

Ole Miss and State are the two most meaningless universities in a major conference. They wouldn't hesitate to knock us both down. Especially now that they are trying to punish state legislatures that pass laws they don't agree with.

Kid was going to LSU his whole life and all of a sudden he changes his mind at the last minute. At least they had the miles firing to give good cover.

Would love to know how much Botch paid for Richmond and Kongbo.

Rumor is Richmond had a 6 figure asking price.

Freeze did an "African prayer candle ceremony" with Kongbo's parents the night before NSD last year so who knows how much that signature cost us.

If I could swing by and pick up a couple of Kolaches and a coffee every morning, I'm down. One sausage, and one sausage with jalopeno.

This is what happens when you try to pay a State fan to go to Ole Miss.

He was committed to Bama for a while IIRC.

MS recruits are always fricked.
