Reverend Rabbit: "There's a difference between making a mistake and cheating"

I thought he was a beaver.

I mean...the gun just went off. All 6 times.

It was a mistake I tell ya. A mistake.

Rev Rabbit is actually not that bad. Rev Rabbit and his band of Rebels...

“My wife (Jill) just asked me, ‘Hugh, what should I pray that you want the end game to be?’ he said. “I said that they (the NCAA) accept the penalties that we self-imposed. I wish somebody would say, ‘Look, they’ve (NCAA) been there four years and the staff is not buying players.’ ”

So he's a cheater and a comedian...

“But when they say ‘cheating,’ that’s not true. Rules being broken is a lot different. Cheating to me is intentionally doing something, like you wanted to get this recruit so you arranged a job for him, or you went to see him when you shouldn’t. You called him when you shouldn’t to gain an edge in recruiting to get a really good player. That’s cheating.”

Please tell me that's not real.

I can COMPLETELY see where a administrator would mistakenly refer a player to another administrator for cash and that administrator would get if for him.

I mean there are lots of college administrators who might not know you aren't supposed to pay college players

I get confused when he says he knows everything that goes on in the program versus things happen that he doesn't know about.

Take it easy over there Nick.. Your insecurity is showing.

I realize that Freeze feels a great need to defend himself in this publicity storm, but comments like those quotes are just more fuel on the fire for his detractors. Sort of reminds one of Bill Clinton and "I didn't have sex with that woman." And it depends on what the definition of is is, and what counts as sex, (or in this case the definition of cheating).
I assume these comments are meant to reassure recruits and the fan base, but
Ole Miss' PR is taking one hit after another. They really need to rethink their approach. "Silence is golden" may be a good motto until they come up with a better plan.
