You seriously don't know what bargaining chip they had? If Leo Lewis does not testify that he got 15 thousand dollars in cash, that infraction goes away. Of course they had leverage. The school that the NCAA has spent 5 years and tons of money investigating could have gotten off on the most egregious pay for play charge in the NOA had Leo Lewis not given his testimony accurately. In order to make sure they got that testimony, our school better have made sure none of this BS that Ole Miss is spewing will backsplash on us. If they didn't make that happen then they are idiots.

The Asst Athletic Director orchestrating interactions between Boosters & recruits would have still made the Level 1 infraction stick.

The fact that there was a systematic Network of Boosters/Recruits/Players entwined in Barney Farrar's operation is evidenced by the multiple Lev 1's.

I'm hoping you are a rebel troll and there is not this simple minded of a human that actually is a state fan.

To be clear, in your fantasy land somehow MSU can stop LL from speaking to the NCAA, maintain his eligibility, and somehow emerge unscathed.

Then the NCAA just packs up and goes home with their tail between their legs right?

The text messages were damning enough to get a booster disassociated and the Associate AD fired, LL was just icing on the cake and they had him by the nuts.

MSU has dodged a bullet here and has no chips nor do they want any.

On Second thought you must just be a troll, no one else would be so intent in injecting "their" school into this sordid affair, you went too far and blew your cover Johnny Reb.

No, dumbass, MSU could not stop LL from speaking to the NCAA. They could tell him to do what the other hundreds of athletes that the NCAA interviewed and had circumstantial evidence on yet somehow ended up not being in the NOA. The associate AD was fired for setting up LL with a booster (for rides is what OM is claiming but that is not true). I don't know where you think they found all of these burner phones and text messages, but it was not from subpoena power because they don't have that. They got all of that from Leo Lewis. If not for him being cooperative, they had jack shite, which is exactly why MSU had a chip to play. It's also exactly why we aren't getting investigated for a player anyone with common sense knows got paid to come here.

How do you think they found out Barney was setting up interactions between Boosters and recruits? The Fairy Godmother? Leo cooperated and nailed their arse. That's why the NCAA is not going to investigate us. That's why that "tape recording" of his mom asking for money is going to be burnt and thrown in the trash. The NCAA is not going to investigate a school immediately after they had a player do that for them.

Leo Lewis just happens to be one of many who could skin the black bears if they wanted to.

This is true. It's also true that MSU's recruiting classes will take a big hit for the next several years.

If Leo's allegations are thrown out because he lied, NOA#2 is rendered limp.

What? Why would Ole Miss being under sanctions cause MSU to lose recruits?

Spin spin spin just like the other day trying to soften things up about your boosters.

Speaking of which, how you going to rope the Ncaa on the grade fixing issues etc? Just the grade fixing and asst AD and staff alone is enough to get you serious sanctions. But hey, go all in with Leo, surely that would make the Ncaa just.....go away.

Leo's testimony was good enough to get one of your coaches fired and multiple boosters disassociated. You aren't even contesting most of his testimony. The entire second NOA is not getting dropped. Try reading it. You aren't even challenging half of it.

I pity you. It's fans like you sir whom are gonna take the sanctions the hardest. Why you still, after everything your camp has said turned out false, believe any sunshine pumped your way is beyond me.
