No I don't believe that. I believe that if LSU offered $650 in Target gift cards he'd be wearing Purple and Gold. I'm just saying that guy from the previous post is throwing stones from a glass house.

ROFL!!!

1:Leo Lewis ain't worth 650k
2:If LSU had offered 650k he would have signed with LSU right then and there.

You aren't very smart are you? As admitted in this OM sanctioned (likely requested) article, the ONLY reason MSU is involved is bc OM was so sloppy that they left a trail on Leo and the NCAA found it. They approached us, with said evidence in hand, and said "help us, and you stay out of trouble". Why is this simple concept so hard to grasp? It's essentially admitted in this steaming pile of crap article.

Wow it's getting deep. So...

Miss State
LSU
Ole Miss

All offered money to his mom. If I were Ole Miss I would threaten to sue the NCAA if they penalized Ole Miss but not the offers that offered money... could be a big discrimination case.

Yet again Mississippi State is the dirtiest school in the SEC. Look at how they bribed Cam Newton. (Yet morons think auburn paid him.)

Everybody already knew State paid players though. It's like everybody forgets they were the bad guys in the Cecil Newton BS.

Cheaters AND butthurt Snitches
They deserve to be knocked down to CUSA or the Sun Belt. Bring up South Alabama in their place, they already own MSU anyway.

Henderson allegedly told Farrar that she had received multiple cash offers for Lewis, including $650,000 from LSU and $80,000 from Mississippi State.


So this is how the state Cam AU thing went down. State offering pennies on the dollar

So Leo Lewis said he received $10k from State and his mother said he was offered $80k from State? So he was offered $80k but said "nah, I'm cool, you can just pay me $10k." And then LSU offers over half a million dollars and, he's still firm, "nah, I'm cool with $10k."

Sounds about right. 10k makes sense for Lewis. Crazy how this is all going against State now.

They should. Let me know how it turns out for them. The NCAA ain't going to in investigate a school over "mamma said" bullshite.

False.

The OM "homers" don't really like him. He looks down on the faux rich country club atmosphere of Ole Miss bc he has the journalist smug sees himself as above the Ole Miss plebs. He also thought Hugh Freeze was an a-hole. He's not the Yancy Porter/Chuck Rousanville fan site journalist that you may have heard about.

What school you graduated from doesn't have to define who are and what will be in the future. This concept may be foreign to you though...

I'm not going to read too much into this because things just go from bad, to worse, to our coach banging hookers, but if any of this is true I would think our lawyers would have a decent shot at getting the Lewis allegations taken out. They can still hammer us on the others, but if Lewis actually said he got paid $11K from his current school and the NCAA says they don't find that credible, but the $10K from Ole Miss is, that's just stupid. Why provide false accusations against your own school? The $650K might have been quoted from the mother correctly, but I'm sure she got confused about the actual amount and it was more like $65K.

The one school that comes out looking good in all of this is Bama. He was committed to Bama and seems like he had his hand out and playing the game and Bama said screw you, not worth it. Bama ends up in back to back championship games; Lewis ends up on a .500 team playing in Starkville, MS and surrounded by controversy and lawsuits; State, and LSU all get exposed for offering money and Ole Miss gets embarrassed by giving money to a kid they didn't even get and will get hammered by the NCAA for it.

What and call it NCAA2.0? Do you people not know what the NCAA is?

It is a collection of the large schools who compete in competitive collegiate sports. When the NCAA gives you sanctions, it's all the other schools in the country telling you to knock it the frick off.
